Issues with SSL Example

I’ve been trying to run the SSL example provided and I’ve run into an issue with getting the --secureport command argument to work. I’ve tried other arguments such as --port and --maxports and those have worked as intended. I am able to connect to the localhost using the port set in the IDE but anything I set as the secure port I am unable to connect to. I have made sure that my application and the example certificate have the same name. Any help would be welcome as I am new to web development and feel out of my depth.

I should also mention I have tested this on a Windows 10 PC and a Macbook Pro with the same result on each.

When using the secure port, make sure you are connecting using the https protocol:

  https://localhost/

If you try to connect to HTTPS using HTTP you’ll get nothing.
