"Re-Generated" SSL certificate causes issues with Thunderbird

Open cniesen opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

When the etesync-dav ssl certificate is regenerated then Firefox and Thunderbird will no longer accept the certificate or allow an exception to be added.

According to Mozilla this is an issue of improperly regenerating the certificate. A unique serial number is needed. Detailed cause and resolution is here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Certificate-contains-the-same-serial-number-as-another-certificate

In my case I noticed the issue when after having etesync-dav SSL enabled and switching to version 2.

Interesting. I don't think we even set the serial number, so I assume it was just generated automatically. I'll have to take a look at it soon.

I haven't run into this. Is it still an issue?
