[geclipse-dev] Grid Certificates Problem

[Antriani Stylianou <antriani.s@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I have been using g-Eclipse to extend it with social functionality.

I had a problem with the importing of the grid certificates -
I was getting a parsing error after the change of the certificate format.
I temporally solved the problem by using http://dist.eugridpma.info/distribution/igtf/current-old/accredited/tgz/ instead of
http://dist.eugridpma.info/distribution/igtf/current/accredited/tgz/.

Now the current-old fails for some certificates giving :
