Trust Anchor not found for Android SSL Connection

Question

I am trying to connect to an IIS6 box running a godaddy 256bit SSL cert, and I am getting the error :

java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Trust an         


        

Answer 1

The error message I was getting was similar but the reason was that the self signed certificate had expired. When the openssl client was attempted, it gave me the reason which was overlooked when I was checking the certificate dialog from firefox.

So in general, if the certificate is there in the keystore and its "VALID", this error will go off.
