ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCHBrowser

Chrome: This site can’t provide a secure connection — uses an unsupported protocol. ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH

The browser and the server could not agree on a TLS version or cipher — the server is too old or misconfigured, or the browser is.

SSLCertificateFile: file does not existSSL / TLS

Apache: AH02240: Server should be SSL-aware but has no certificate configured / SSLCertificateFile: file '/etc/ssl/x.crt' does not exist or is empty

Apache cannot find the certificate or key file named in its configuration, or `SSLEngine on` is set without any certificate.

sslv3 alert handshake failureSSL / TLS

OpenSSL: error:14094410:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:sslv3 alert handshake failure (SSL alert number 40)

The server aborted the handshake with alert 40 — no acceptable parameters (cipher, signature algorithm, client certificate or SNI…

no "ssl_certificate" is defined for the "listen ... ssl" directiveSSL / TLS

Nginx: [emerg] no "ssl_certificate" is defined for the "listen ... ssl" directive in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:3

A server block listens with `ssl` but has no `ssl_certificate` and `ssl_certificate_key`.

Timeout during connect (likely firewall problem)SSL / TLS

Let's Encrypt: Fetching http://example.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/token: Timeout during connect (likely firewall problem)

The ACME validation server could not reach your server on port 80 within the timeout.

CAA record forbids issuanceSSL / TLS

Let's Encrypt/CA: CAA record for example.com prevents issuance

The domain's DNS CAA records do not list the certificate authority you asked, so the CA must refuse.

AH01909: server certificate does NOT include an ID which matches the server nameSSL / TLS

Apache: [ssl:warn] AH01909: example.com:443:0 server certificate does NOT include an ID which matches the server name

Apache's SSL virtual host name does not match any name inside the certificate it loads.

ERR_SSL_KEY_USAGE_INCOMPATIBLESSL / TLS

Chrome: ERR_SSL_KEY_USAGE_INCOMPATIBLE — the certificate's key usage doesn't allow the negotiated cipher

The server's certificate Key Usage extension does not permit the key exchange used (typically an RSA certificate missing `keyEnci…

the "listen ... http2" directive is deprecatedNginx / Apache

Nginx: nginx: [warn] the "listen ... http2" directive is deprecated, use the "http2" directive instead

Since Nginx 1.25.1 HTTP/2 is enabled with a separate `http2 on;` directive instead of `listen 443 ssl http2;`.

Two steps away (25)

526Cloudflare

Cloudflare Error 526: Invalid SSL Certificate

With SSL mode Full (strict), the origin’s certificate is expired, self-signed, or doesn’t match the hostname.

ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERRORJavaScript

ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR (This site can't provide a secure connection)

The browser couldn’t negotiate TLS — the server sent an invalid response, often plain HTTP on the HTTPS port.

tlsv1 alert protocol versionAPI

SSL error: tlsv1 alert protocol version / unsupported protocol / no protocols available

The client and server couldn’t agree on a TLS version or cipher, so the HTTPS handshake failed before any HTTP was exchanged.

ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS (Cloudflare)Cloudflare

ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS with Cloudflare (Flexible SSL redirect loop)

The page redirects to itself forever — classic cause: Cloudflare SSL mode “Flexible” while the origin redirects HTTP to HTTPS.

ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH (Cloudflare)Cloudflare

ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH on a Cloudflare site (certificate not issued / multi-level subdomain)

Cloudflare has no edge certificate for the hostname — the Universal SSL cert is still pending, or the hostname is a second-level…

Cloudflare Origin CA not trustedCloudflare

NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID with a Cloudflare Origin Certificate (record not proxied)

Cloudflare Origin CA certificates are only trusted by Cloudflare — visitors reaching the origin directly (grey-cloud record, dire…

cURL error 35PHP

cURL error 35: OpenSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to host:443

The TLS handshake failed — protocol/cipher mismatch, a proxy interfering, or the server closed the connection.

SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAPBrowser

Firefox: Secure Connection Failed — SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP (no common cipher)

Firefox and the server share no TLS cipher suite, so the secure handshake cannot even start.

unable to get local issuer certificateSSL / TLS

OpenSSL: error:num=20:unable to get local issuer certificate / SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED

The client could not build a chain from the server's certificate to a CA it trusts — the issuer is missing locally or the server…

tlsv1 unrecognized name (SNI)SSL / TLS

OpenSSL: SSL alert number 112 — tlsv1 unrecognized name

The server did not recognise the hostname sent in SNI and rejected the handshake (or an alert/warning is logged).

SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file failed (key values mismatch)SSL / TLS

Nginx: [emerg] SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file("/etc/ssl/server.key") failed (SSL: error:0B080074:x509 certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch)

The private key does not belong to the certificate configured in the server.

Could not automatically find a matching server blockSSL / TLS

Certbot: Could not automatically find a matching server block for example.com. Set the `server_name` directive to use the Nginx installer

Certbot's Nginx plugin could not find a `server` block whose `server_name` matches the domain you requested.

1020Cloudflare

Cloudflare Error 1020: Access Denied

A Cloudflare firewall/WAF custom rule blocked the request — the visitor’s IP, country, user agent or request pattern matched a bl…

ssh port 22 Connection timed outLinux

ssh: connect to host x port 22: Connection timed out

SSH packets get no reply — a firewall/security group drops them, the server is off, or the IP is wrong.

No route to hostLinux

connect: No route to host (EHOSTUNREACH)

The destination host isn’t reachable — it’s down, on another subnet without routing, or a firewall rejects with “host unreachable…

sudo: unable to resolve hostLinux

sudo: unable to resolve host <hostname>: Name or service not known

The machine’s hostname isn’t in /etc/hosts (or DNS), so sudo prints this warning — usually after changing the hostname.

Temporary failure in name resolutionLinux

ping: google.com: Temporary failure in name resolution

The Linux host can’t resolve domain names — no working DNS server is configured or reachable.

523Cloudflare

Cloudflare Error 523: Origin is unreachable

Cloudflare can’t find a network route to your origin server — the DNS record points to a wrong/unroutable IP or the origin networ…

AH00558Nginx / Apache

Apache: AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name

A harmless startup warning: Apache has no global ServerName, so it guessed one from the host’s IP.

SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATESSL / TLS

Firefox: Peer's Certificate has expired. Error code: SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE

Firefox found an expired certificate in the chain presented by the server.

SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAINSSL / TLS

Firefox: Websites prove their identity via certificates — the certificate is only valid for other names. Error code: SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN

The certificate does not include the hostname you typed.

ca md too weak / ee key too smallSSL / TLS

OpenSSL: error:0A00018E:SSL routines::ca md too weak / error:140AB18F:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_use_certificate:ee key too small

OpenSSL's security level rejected a certificate signed with a weak hash (MD5/SHA-1) or with a small key (RSA < 2048).

410HTTP

HTTP 410 Gone

The resource used to exist but was intentionally and permanently removed, with no forwarding address.

nginx: [emerg] unknown directiveNginx / Apache

Nginx: nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "x" in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/x:12 — configuration file test failed

Nginx found a directive it doesn’t know — a typo, a missing semicolon on the previous line, a directive from a module that isn’t…

SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh failed: dh key too smallSSL / TLS

Nginx: [emerg] SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh("/etc/ssl/dhparam.pem") failed (SSL: error:1401E0A8:SSL routines:... dh key too small)

The Diffie-Hellman parameters file is too weak (e.g. 512 or 768 bit) for the current OpenSSL security level.
