Question

err_connection_reset when i call https://localhost

Anonymous

Hello,

I allways get the error err_connection_reset when i call https://localhost

If i use http://localhost the iis test page is showing with no problem.

Is this a setting within IIS i am missing or is this a browser issue?

Tried Edge and chrome browser. Within IE it works fine.

But i need it to work with Edge.

How can i make it work with Edge?

Some specs:

Windows 2019 Standard 1809

Edge 114.0.1823.43

Thanks!

Johan

Hi @Johan Lijffijt,

If you’re receiving the ERR_CONNECTION_RESET error message, it means that your internet browser is unable to connect to the target website’s server.

You need to make sure that the necessary ports (443 for HTTPS) are open in your Windows Firewall or any other firewall software you have installed. If a firewall blocks incoming HTTPS traffic, it may cause a connection reset error.

Answer 1

What is the CN name in your certificate?

See the Choosing a Certificate in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/manage/configuring-security/how-to-set-up-ssl-on-iis

That the certificate's "Common Name" (CN) matches the host header in the request. For example, if the client is making a request to https://www.contoso.com/, then the CN must be www.contoso.com.

If your certificate has a test name like MyTestSite.com, then in order to get the name resolved you can add an entry in the hosts file.

127.0.0.1  MyTestSite.com
