Certificate chaining error - Pointers needed on how to debug/solve

843811Sep 10 2003 — edited Sep 11 2003

Hi,

I've pasted below the error I'm getting trying to request a page over HTTPS (using the Jakarta Commons HttpClient with j2sdk1.4.1_02). Seems to be a problem with the certificates however I do not get any problem using IE 6 to load the page. Any ideas on how to solve get around this would be appreciated.

Thanks
