Error: 'The server's certificate has expired' (转)

Problem

You have recertified a server ID file that had recently expired; however, the following error displays when users attempt to connect to the server: "The server's certificate has expired."

Solution

In this case, although the expired server ID file was recertified, the public key in the corresponding Server document did not get updated. You can resolve this issue by replacing the contents of the Certified Public Key field on the Administration tab of the Server document with the Public Key copied from the server ID file, and then recycling the Domino® server.
