Have used Firefox for years. Today, went to standard sites (eg weather info, local blog site) and get told they aren't secure and can't be loaded. Have tried re-installing Firefox, clearing cookies but no change. No problem with same sites from Chrome. Message is:

Looks like there’s a problem with this site

www.portlandbirdobs.com sent back an empty page. What can you do about it?

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

Intermittent “SEC_ERROR_OCSP_INVALID_SIGNING_CERT” error on my site in Firefox

Hello, I run a movie and drama-related website: https://tvmon.com.co/. Recently, I’ve noticed that Firefox occasionally throws the following error when trying to access the site:

"Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to tvmon.com.co. . The OCSP response contains an invalid signing certificate. Error code: SEC_ERROR_OCSP_INVALID_SIGNING_CERT"

This issue is very strange because:

  1. The site loads fine in Chrome, Edge, and Safari.
  1. My SSL/TLS certificate is valid, up-to-date, and passes external tests (SSL Labs, etc.).
  1. The error only appears occasionally in Firefox, refreshing sometimes fixes it, sometimes not.
  1. Hosting and server logs show no issues at all.

I suspect this is related to Firefox’s stricter OCSP validation, but I’m not sure how to debug or resolve it. Since my site streams drama and movie content, this error is frustrating for users who rely on Firefox.

Has anyone else experienced this intermittent OCSP signing certificate error? Is there a known fix or workaround for Firefox-specific validation issues?

One morning could not connect to email/ATT. This is the error message I got: Something's gone wrong We may be having trouble with your connection. Connecting your device to Wi-Fi could help fix the issue or try again later. If you were using an app, close this page. Otherwise, start over. ATT came to home to look into hookup, etc. Could not fix. They advised Firefox could be corrupted. Should I reinstall Firefox. Had to go thru Chrome for email. Have Windows 11. Thank you.
