HTTPS access error HTTP OK

Installation
1

Hi there

I am installing google home without cloud (since I have multiple installations). However it needs https access, but using https access returns error: This site can’t provide a secure connection

Using HTTP works fine for remote access.

I use Unifi and port forward both 443 (have tried to trick it by forward 8123) and 8123. But only HTTP goes through

I have fixed Wan IP

In all youtube setup video’s and HA tutorial they just mention HTTPS port as if it is standard working. After weeks of reading all kind of suggestions I call the community for HELP

Did you generate a SSL certificate (f.e. using the Let’sEncrypt Addon)
Did you take care of local DNS resolving (f.e. by NGinx addon)
Did you enable SSL in your configuration.yaml?

# Comment this if you are not using SSL/TLS, running in Docker container, etc.
http:
    ssl_certificate: /ssl/fullchain.pem
    ssl_key: /ssl/privkey.pem

If you didn’t, the remark

This site can’t provide a secure connection

is exactly what it says it is… the connection is not secure, as you SSL certifate does not match you DNS name :wink:

Hi Aceindy

I have now setup the ssl certificate and it solved the https access, thank you.

Now I only need for google home integration to also work, it keeps returning error 404
