In case you just created a new officially signed https certificate, restart your web server and get the error error_ocsp_unknown_cert in your browser (firefox in that case). Don't be alarmed!

Just wait for about an hour until the OCSP service of the CA loads your new certificate into its database.

For a website with lots of visitors it might be better to wait for that hour before installing and restarting the web server.
