Unable to connect to home assistant in local network when using SSL

Mobile Apps Home Assistant Companion for Apple
1

Hi. I am not able to connect to my home assistance from my Iphone when I am in my local network over wifi and use the local URL. I can reach the login page of home assistance but when I sign in with my credentials I get an error “Unable to connect to Home Assistant” and see a “Retry” button.

Here is my setup: HomeAssistant + DNS + LetsEncrypt + RPi3 on port 443. HA runs on docker in 192.168.0.100.

http:
  base_url: example.ddnsfree.com
  ssl_certificate: fullchain.cer
  ssl_key: cert.key
  server_port: 443
  login_attempts_threshold: 10

From the logs I got:

[homeassistant.components.http.ban] Login attempt or request with invalid authentication from 192.168.0.51

It works quite well if I disable SSL and use port 8123. It is working well also when I use mobile network of my Iphone and use https://example.ddnsfree.com:443. Interestingly I don’t have this problem if I connect over my notebook from the local network using the local URL.

Any idea why my Iphone does not work?

Try to use different browser, ssl certificate is online for dns address not for local…so your browser must shows an alert about this to continue the navigation.
