ssl access site error with certificate problem

[cdsoft]

Hello,

I need to work on MAC, but I don't know the environment of this OS at all

I want to open a URL with a certificate, but I am denied with revoked certificate
and the page:

"this connection is not private"

by clicking on view details > then consult the certificate > then trust:

it doesn't register my "Always Approve" request

how to do please

thank you

What macOS version are you using and what website are you trying to access?
Apple - “Find out which macOS your Mac is using” https://support.apple.com/HT201260

If it’s a new Mac, it’s probably just a misconfigured website.
Try http, instead of https.
Here is an example:
https://trasir.com returns an error
but http://trasir.com is loaded just fine.

Thank's
i will test.
but what do you mean by "a misconfigured website." ?

Click on Show details, then View certificate. It should tell what is wrong.
For the example above, the certificate is issued for web-hosting.com, not for trasir.com.

yes I actually noticed that and I asked to trust but that is without effect
I do not understand why, it is a certificate established during the hosting on IONOS
and I don't have this problem on PC.

how to authorize on mac?
thank you

It should work as you described in the first post.

Certificates can be added/deleted with the Keychain Access app https://support.apple.com/guide/keychain-access/add-certificates-to-a-keychain-kyca2431/mac

 

[cdsoft]

thank you so much
I'll take a look and let you know if it works or not.

problem solved.
I changed my certificate through a recognized but paying certifying authority
to avoid any user intervention
thank you

a recognized but paying certifying authority

Probably the best long-term solution.
“Let’s Encrypt” offers free certificates for websites, but they can be more difficult to set up and are renewed every three months. https://letsencrypt.org/getting-started/
