Forum OpenACS Q&A: authorize-gateway, mystery error

After orders are confirmed, the following "SERVER's CERT is NOT VALID" error shows in the openacs-error.log. No connection event is logged at the payment processing's site. For non-gift-certificate orders (such as order 4000002), the error is repeated each 15 minutes for sometime over an hour (usualy tries for the default 8 hours).

This gift certificate order 4000003 seems to have put a stop to 4000002 processing by taking precedence and stopping the scheduled authorize proc.

Your hints and suggestions much appreciated.

(I'm thinking admin error: wrong parameter value given, but which one and what form should it be)?

the parameter authorize_url is the URL of the listening credit card processing application. The gateway concatenates all variables that need to be passed to Authorize.net to this base URL.
