Fix SSL problems for some websites
#1
Hello,

one day I've used "web.skype.com" which is an SSL website and it has worked correctly.
but, not forever.. because since I have pressed the 'refresh' button wrongly in Mozilla Firefox and now I get this problem:

Quote:Secure Connection Failed

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

    The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
    Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

I have never tested the report function of Firefox, and I knew that no benefit of getting it working with the report function..
as, most of the reports are checked in like 3 months...

But I've gave the report function an try and I got an solution in my Mozilla Firefox support account.
The answer container was:
Quote:This problem happened for your operating system, as Mozilla Firefox launcher was loading the SSL website and you've suddenly refreshed the page; so our launcher has made multiple SSL "send" queries. (as an bug)

Your solution is posted by one of our moderators here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questi...wer-720995

why have I bolded "moderators"?: just to know it's trusted solution.

solution is

  1. In the URL field of Mozilla Firefox (address bar) type "about:config" and press enter.
  2. Search for " security.tls.insecure_fallback_hosts "
  3. CAUTION: It's not " security.tls.insecure_fallback_hosts.use_static_list "
  4. Right click on the value field of "security.tls.insecure_fallback_hosts" and click "Modify"
value examples:
  • If you're going to add 1 website only then:
example.com
(without https:// or http://)
  • If you're going to add more than 1 website then:
RTLS='example1.com',RTLS='example2.com'

Explaining of "adding more than 1 website" :

RTLS means "read-tls" while "read-tls" means the permissions of this value will be able to read the website's SSL certificate fully.

Why not doing "example.com, example.com" ?
I've tested that and not working! you've to set atleast 1 permission value for every website to get it working.


I hope this tutorial was simple and helpful for a lot of people!

I don't know how you ended up with that problem; I did the exact same thing in Firefox (developer's edition if you need to know) and nothing happened. Thanks for the tutorial though.
