Unable to Verify HTTPS Certificate (Unknown Authority)
I facing same problem since few day after creating certificate for Secure HTTPS sites. then whenever I am browsing sites with https it was showing me error like “Website Certified by Unknown Authority – unable to verify the identity of indiangnu.org site”
I was thinking that this might be problem with browser incompatibility issue and my borwser is not supporting HTTPS. But I was wrong and finally I found that there is some simple miss configuration on server side.
* Virtual Hosting of My Site –
<VirtualHost 192.168.1.200:443>
ServerAdmin webmaster@indiangnu.org
ServerName www.indiangnu.org
DocumentRoot /home/indgnu/public_html
User indgnu
Group indgnu
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/indgnu/public_html/cgi-bin/
SSLEnable
SSLCertificateFile /usr/share/ssl/certs/indiangnu.org.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/share/ssl/private/indiangnu.org.key
SSLCACertificateFile /usr/share/ssl/certs/intermediate.crt
SSLLogFile /var/log/apache/domlogs/indiangnu.org-ssl_data_log
</VirtualHost>
If you are using Certificate authorize by CA then you need to add this line and intermediate.crt Certificate of your CA.
SSLCACertificateFile /usr/share/ssl/certs/intermediate.crt
If you are using Self signed Certificate then you may not face this problem..
* The options might depends upon the version of Apache.
