On my profile, I tried to change my web link to a secure site starting "https://www...." The unmanedspaceflight software keeps adding "http://" in front of the https:// creating garbage. Any solution or should I give up on the link?

Perhaps I'm mistaken but I think not: it seems that UMSP's https support has been discontinued.
Some months ago I started to receive a warning from the browser, when logging on, that the connection to the site is not encrypted, so the password is transmitted on the clear. The http port is being used. Trying to connect via https gives the following error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG Should someone look this up? Thanks Fernando |

Thanks Fernando According to this URL, this error message appears while using firefox when the destination server has an incorrect definition of the SSL certificate: https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledge...rxrecordtoolong So, unless there's a problem with the redirection from http to https, it seems possible it is a problem with the server your link goes to, not UMSF?

Hi Paolo, thanks for the reply.
Perhaps I didn't explain conveniently. The error message maybe a Firefox one but the problem also happens with Edge and Chrome (all in Windows). If I enter http://www.unmannedspacefligt.com it works fine. If I enter https://www.unmannedspaceflight.com then I get the error. It is an SSL problem. It is not possible to log in securely to UMSF. So information may be compromised, the password for instance. I think we used to be able to log in securely and that changed some time ago. So perhaps the SSL got misconfigured somehow? Thanks Fernando |

Telnetting to port 443 it really seems like the https protocol is disabled.
