steam asf integration - Failed to establish connection, error message: The operation is insecure #30

Open skapytek opened 3 years ago

skapytek commented 3 years ago

If im trying to get it connected with ASF i get this error message: Failed to establish connection, error message: The operation is insecure

ASF is running on another machine which is accessible over the net, protocols,... are correct.

I believe you can connect ASF with https protocol, there's an option in settings. This is default to http as most users have ASF on their local machine.

I dont have ssl enabled on the ASF machine so im using http. If im trying to connect im also getting a rate limit reached from ASF and i need to restart ASF to be able to login again

It's more like ASF side issues, this extension only serves as a bridge between the two. Modern browsers disallow http connection on https page for security reason, you have to use https to connect as pretty much all websites use https nowadays.
