Hi there,

Just got my new unlocked Galaxy Nexus from the Google Play store. This was the first app I tried to install, and I get the following error when attempting a restore:

Error during backup/restore:
java.security.cert
CertPathValidatorException: Trust anchor for certification path not found.

The account authentication seems to have worked correctly (Google shows permission granted for the app), but the restore fails every time.

I noticed some similar sounding java/cerificaiton issues open, but nothing with this exact message.

Cheers,
Adam

i have the same problem
it haapens always after upgrading to new version.
now i have version 1.4.8.

when i press the bachup buttom i get the above error message ("java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Trust anchor for certification path not found.")

i can of course uninstall the application and after reinstalling it everything works properly (this is what is did on the last upgrade). but then all the current point (of what was backuped untill now) is missed and the backup is full all over again...
