Other possible workaround for specific certificate error:

    Latest Firefox and Chrome browsers do not support SHA-1 certificate and StoreFront connection fails with error: NET::ERR_CERT_WEAK_SIGNATURE_ALGORITHM

  2. NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID error
    Chrome requires Subject Alternative Name for SHA-2 certificate, without SAN (Subject Alternative Name) in the SHA-2 certificate, the connection will fail with error NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID
    Session launch fails with CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID(-200) error dialog
    Workaround for NET::ERR_CERT_WEAK_SIGNATURE_ALGORITHM and
    NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID:

    • Mozilla:

      Enable network.websocket.allowInsecureFormHTTPS from about:config

    • Chrome:
      Chrome by default requires SHA2 Certificate with Subject Alternative Names (SAN)
      Add the following registry keys at : SoftwarePoliciesGoogleChrome Copytrans suite review.

    • EnableCommonNameFallbackForLocalAnchors – true
      (Note: Chrome need SAN by default)

    • EnableSha1ForLocalAnchors – true
      (Note: SHA1 is not supported)
