Eclipse error popup: "Certificate Problem"

Question

For the past few weeks I keep getting the following error whenever I use the SVN plugin on Eclipse:

Certificate Problem
There is a problem with the site's security certificate
Error validating server certificate for: https://x10.svn.sourceforge.net:443
- Unknow certificate issuer
Fingerprint: .....
Distinguished name: GeoTrust,Inc., US

Selecting Trust Always doesn't do anything, just keps poping back up. Tried reinstalling subeclipse and nothing. Any thoughts on how to fix this? Or at least how to turn off these damn certificate problem notifications?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Is the GoeTrust root certificate in your trusted root store?

Start > Run > mmc > File > Add remove snap in > Add... > Certificates > Current User > Done.

Under Trusted Root Store look for the GeoTrust certificate that matches the issuer on the certificate giving you the error. If it is not there you will have to manually install it.

Their root certs can be found here: http://www.geotrust.com/resources/root-certificates/
