Xcode produces an SSL error when attempting to upload app to App Store

So I just upgraded my MacBook to Lion and setup all my prov profiles and Xcode 4.2.1. I followed the instructions here: http://www.weston-fl.com/blog/?p=2442 to upload my app to the App Store. I have iTunes Connect all ready for my app update - it says waiting for upload. When I try with organizer to validate or submit my archive, it says an SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made. Has anybody ever seen this error before? I'm pretty stumped.

I had the same error message and I tried using Application Loader, double checking password and account information, logging in via Safari, quitting Safari, etc. What eventually worked for me was simply restarting my computer.

Very frustrating, but hopefully this helps someone else save 15 minutes of time.
