I have just updated my ssl cert and tried to log in and update it. I cant, and get the message:
Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to .
Peer's Certificate has been revoked.
(Error code: sec_error_revoked_certificate)
Anyone with pointers on how can I correct this?
Thanks

Which browser are you using? You may need to delete the cert from your browser's list of certs it knows about ... Firefox in particular seems to need this when a system's cert is changed.

Ahh, James, I hoped that this was a simple solution.
Alas, I cleared the certs on FF and the same.
Using Chrome & IE also returned the problem!

Digging around on Google a bit, it sounds like that one of the causes for this is if the intermediate certificate is expired.
As a temporary workaround to allow you to get in to fix the problem, you can go into about:config in Firefox, and then set security.OCSP.enabled to "false".
Normally, Firefox won't view the site; the above change causes Firefox to view it anyways. You'll probably want to change that back, once you've fixed the issue with your certificate.
