I don't know if I'll have to go through the same thing if I restart Pidgin... Just keep persisting and you hopefully will connect. Dunno if this is an actual issue which can be fixed in code. comment:2 Changed 6 years ago by GingerDog I'm seeing the same issue - Ubuntu maverick's stock version AND Pidgin 1:2.7.5-1ubuntu2+pidgin1.10.10 via the pidgin self signed certificate ppa... I've tried deleting the cached certs using : rm ~/.purple/certificates/x509/tls_peers/login.live.com rm ~/.purple/certificates/x509/tls_peers/*.passport.com rm ~/.purple/certificates/x509/tls_peers/*.msn.com and restarting pidgin, but this made no difference. comment:3 Changed 6 years ago by drunkenmonkey Woke up this morning (about 30mins ago) and found I've got a similar problem. I had about 20 windows saying 'Unable to validate certificate' for omega.contacts.msn.com, closed them all and a couple more popped up over about 5-10mins. No more since. I can see my contacts and it seems to be working ok, my contacts are all offline atm so i haven't tried sending or receiving msgs, but one contact did log in quickly before. Pretty sure my contacts were showing up even when i was getting the error msg. Tried doing a search for the problem, but couldn't find much. Ps.

not be validated. The certificate chain present is invalid." Solution 1 How to replace your certficate (the GUI method): Go to pidgin's Tools->Certificates to remove the old certificate. Don't https://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/12906 close this window yet. (You can, but it is easier to not) With your browser, go to https://omega.contacts.msn.com. It will give you "Directory Listing Denied" With Firefox, if you click on the lock in the lower right corner, you get a dialog box, where you can click on View Certificate. On its Details tab, you can export the certificate http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-ssl-certificate-problem-in-pidgin-and-msn.html to a file. Now, back on the pidgin Tools->Certificates dialog, you can add this certificate Solution 2 1. Close Pidgin 2. Find your certificates folder (Windows: %appdata%\.purple) (Linux: /home/.purple) 3. Delete everything in the certificate folder. 4. Restart pidgin and eventually you should get a new certificate that works. P.S: Windows users who aren’t familar with %appdata% just type %appdata%\.purple in your address bar and press enter. Solution 3 The first thing is to remove the invalid certificate. This can be done from Tools->Certificates. After that, you might try to just reconnect and it might get a valid certificate, and you are done. In case you are not, if running on Linux, you can do: echo QUIT | openssl s_client –connect omega?.con?tacts?.msn?.com:443 | openssl x509 > omega?.con?tacts?.msn?.com And copy that file to: ~/.purple/certificates/x509/tls_peers If you use windows 7 Go to C:\Users\{USER}\AppData\Roaming\.purple\certificates\x509\tls_peers\ delete the omega?.con?tacts?.msn?.com file and restart pidgin Source from here Sponsored Link Related posts Zik - Audio player based on gstreamer (3) Zero Install Injector - Install software easily and without root privi
