But when i try to approve with the DSC it shows an error “INFO: UNEXPECTED ERROR OCCURED WHILE SIGNING.Exception = No matching registered digital signatory details found.” even while signing in with the certificate shown in the window.

    1. Sometimes this error occures, so if your DSC is Active then try again later your issue will be solved as it is a temporary technical issue.

      Reply

    1. Got to your DSC drive after insert of DSC token into your system then run the Application file. If you don’t have any knowledge about application installation so kindly take help of a technician.

  30. Howdy! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest authoring a blog post or vice-versa? My blog discusses a lot of the same topics as yours and I think we could greatly benefit from each other. If you are interested feel free to send me an e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you! Wonderful blog by the way!|

  37. This Connection is Untrusted

    You have asked Firefox to connect securely to http://www.google.com, but we can’t confirm that your connection is secure.

    Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site’s identity can’t be verified.
    What Should I Do?

    If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn’t continue.

    This site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to specify that Firefox only connect to it securely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate.

    http://www.google.com uses an invalid security certificate.

    The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate has expired.

    (Error code: sec_error_expired_issuer_certificate)

    Reply

    1. Dear Mr. Asad,

      As the Mozilla 38.0.1 is very older version so some security features are not updated. But this can be use only for DSC work, rather than you can choose other browsers. So ignore the error message and proceed further and once completed DSC work you can switch to other browser for other work.

      Thanks & Regards
