Secure Connection Failed for My First Site

I’m using Ubuntu 16 in VM. When I created a site with app like this video

I tried to login to the site I created which is

https://meeting.dev:8000/

but this is what happend

same problem happened in Chrome

I understood the problem is with the [HTTPS] and I must log into the website by [HTTP] but it could not happened with my search in google

any suggestions?

@Ali

The problem might be due to your domain name. Since Chrome & Firefox now forces .dev domains to HTTPS via preloaded HSTS

Consider creating a new site without .dev at the end of site name and then make sure to update your hosts file accordingly.

Hope that helps

it’s works! thank you Suraj very much

hi all
I am also getting the error even after using the reolution provided by @surajshetty.
After some research I have found, I used “https” where I had only an “http”. Hope this lesson learned the hard way will help someone else.

Thanks, it works!
I went through a thousand posts, installed SSL and had no success. Never would have imagined it was such a simple solution.

Btw, removing the .dev only helped in firefox, not in chrome.

Best regardss!

You’re right, the issue is related to using HTTPS on a custom domain like .dev. The .dev TLD is now owned by Google and enforces HTTPS via HSTS in modern browsers like Chrome. That’s why trying to access https://meeting.dev:8000 causes a Secure Connection Failed or ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR even if you didn’t configure HTTPS.

To fix it, change the domain to something like meeting. local or meeting. test, and access your app via HTTP instead, like http://meeting.local:8000. No need to install SSL for local development unless required. Glad it worked in Firefox after the change! It arises when Firefox cannot establish a secure connection with a website. This error is also known as this site can’t provide a secure connection, typically caused by an issue with the website’s SSL certificate or a mismatch in encryption algorithms and protocols. There are different ways to fix the error; you need to understand them properly in detail. Hope it helps!
