Comment(by duke.717):

 I have the same issue, in my case the problem is caused by an expired
 certificate. Problem is that for another reason the certificate cannot be
 changed so easily.

 When I read the comment "''the error will be more explicitly clear in
 2.6.2''",
 it seems like the resolution will be to only give a detailed explanation.

 Well, in my view the resolution is to behave like version 2.5.x, where the
 user is prompted to accept/decline the expired/untrusted certificate.

 Many thanks for the good work!
