Question Firefox certificate problem when using another profile


Hi,

I'm on Slackware64-current vanilla.
I launch firefox normally, I can browse e.g.:
https://formation.ifsem.cnrs.fr
I create another profile with firefox -p, I use this profile and got a certificate error.
Any idea about this behavior ?

I can confirm this. Using a clean profile I get the "Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead" Under advanced it shows "Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER" Works in my normal profile.

I can't explain it, but the site gets a grade be from SSL Labs.
