VALIDATE: Invalid validation results despite correct signature

In order to validate, the application should specify that a block list check is carried out and – if this fails – an OCSP check (online status check) all certificates are to be checked for blocking. With this setting, Sign Live! C.C.C delivered.

  • If a document is not validated despite having a valid signature, check the settings. To do this, open the settings dialog (menu item “Tools > Settings”), navigate to the page “Signatures > Signature Validation > Certificate Validation” and answer the question “Which certificates should be verified using OCSP?” reported “All certificates”.
  • Please make sure that the “Blocklist Check” and “Online Status Check” checkboxes are selected.

Checking the signature again should produce a valid result.

Note:
Various trust centers have discontinued checking by blacklist and currently only use OCSP responders.
