Error `sec_error_revoked_certificate` when viewed in Firefox only

browser, firefox, security, ssl

Solution

The instructions provided in the answer by Arjun KP don't work for more recent versions of Firefox (tested on v. 57.0.1). Instead, here's what I did:

- Enter `about:config` in the address bar, accepting the risk if prompted.

- Enter `security.OCSP.enabled` in the search bar.

- Change the value of that setting from `1` to `0`.

- Reload the page that failed.

After doing this, my site started working.

However, as Arjun mentioned, this will reduce the security of Firefox, since it disables the Online Certificate Status Protocol. Ideally, you should reset the setting to `1` after you finish with that site, and not load other pages while it is set to `0`.

Problem

I have an SSL certificate that does not inhibit the loading of a client's site when viewed in Chrome, Safari, or Android Browser. Unfortunately, when viewed in Firefox, I encounter the following error message: ``` An error occurred during a connection to www.rzim.org. Peer's Certificate has been revoked. (Error code: sec_error_revoked_certificate) ``` My only "lead" online was concerning intermediate certificates. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
