Hi!
When I try to connect to gmail I get a "Secure Connection Failed" error:
An error occurred during a connection to www.google.com.
You have received an invalid certificate. Please contact the server administrator or email correspondent and give them the following information:
Your certificate contains the same serial number as another certificate issued by the certificate authority. Please get a new certificate containing a unique serial number.
(Error code: sec_error_reused_issuer_and_serial)
I have no idea what caused this and can't find anything about it. It's pretty annoying as my check-new-mail script says I got 6 new mails :S
Anyone got a clue?
Edit: I'm using Firefox 3.5, or "Shiretoko". Seems like it came with the upgrade somehow, but it works on other machines running the same version.

Is your computer date alright? Check to see if your current date is correctly set.

Go to Edit->Preferences->Advanced->Encryption->View certificates, delete the Google certificate and try again. I hope this solves it.

I had already deleted the google certificate without getting further, but now I deleted cert8.db and key3.db under ~/.mozilla/<my profile folder>/ because I was getting a bit frustrated
Now it works! It must've used a certificate with another name that got blasted when I did a full purge.
Thanks anyway, I don't think I would've tried it if you hadn't posted!
