Error `sec_error_revoked_certificate` when viewed in Firefox only

When Firefox web browser checks a security certificate, it also checks with the issuing authority if the certificate is valid. It appears that, near a certificate’s expiration date, the issuing authority may release a new certificate. The two certificates have conflicting expiration dates.

For reasons unknown, this caused Firefox to report a sec_error_revoked_certificate error and refuse to allow you to connect to the site!

You can go through the following steps, but it will reduce the security.

  1. Firefox main menu -> edit ->Preferences
  2. click on Advanced Tab
  3. select certificates
  4. click on validation
  5. Uncheck the option “Use the Online Certificate status protocol(OCSP)……….”
  6. Click OK button

Now you can see the page with out error.
