One of the TakeItAparts here. We've seen this in browsers where the OCSP request fails (on the Comodo side), but the browser does not fall back to a CRL check. What browser were you using when saw the error?

Opera 12.16

It looks like this is a known problem with Opera 12.16[1][2]. According to the linked thread, a workaround is to disable opera:config#SecurityPrefs|OCSPValidateCertificates (obviously not ideal).

You might see if it is fixed in 12.17.

I do get an OCSP response if I run:

    openssl s_client -connect takeitapart.com:443 -tls1_2 -tlsextdebug -status

Qualys also shows OCSP is working (though seemingly not part of the A+ rating)[3].

Ah, thank you for your time on this. :) I'm sorry to hear it's a browser end problem.
