trouble accessing "kerbalspaceprogram.com" on Firefox

Hi there

Since the new site has launched I get a browser warning when I try to access "kerbalspaceprogram.com" telling something like "the certificate of the site is untrusted" and I need to set some odd permissions to access this site every time again when I restart my browser.

This only happens in Firefox webbrowser, in IE it's working well, so it's possibly more a browser issue then a problem with the site or it's certification.

However I prefer to use FF for webbrowsing but cannot make it, to trust this site by default.

I was doing some search about this and there seem to be some issues with the certification source "godaddy" on other browsers too.

I did some research on a Firefox Forum too, but still don't find any help by now.

Does someone else got this problem and any idea ?

Greetings Martin

i think they migrated to new servers during the update to ksp 1.0, at least thats the message i was getting sometime on early on monday when i went to download the new version, i wasnt able to download it until later that evening. the new site likely has new bugs that still need to be worked out.

I have no problems using my web browser. But then I did this:


technicality@vps:~/cinchbot$ wget --spider https://kerbalspaceprogram.com Spider mode enabled. Check if remote file exists.

In fact my system clock was about 5 minutes late, but readjusting it did not fix the problem for me, unfortunately.

Okay, sometimes with the security certs having an incorrect system clock causes the cert to reject (I guess they're set to expire fairly quickly)
