In browser every once in a while I get ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR

in Chrome browser every once in a while I get

This site can’t provide a secure connection

www.eonlinesites.com sent an invalid response.
ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR

I reload the page and still happens the a few minutes later it will come back online like nothing happened.
The 3 times I happened I loaded another browser and it came back don't know if it was a coincidence. But it was a few minutes after reloading.
I tested with SSL Labs and every thing is good from what I see.

Just happened again this time loaded firefox and got this

An error occurred during a connection to www.eonlinesites.com. SSL peer rejected a handshake message for unacceptable content. (Error code: ssl_error_illegal_parameter_alert)

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.

Just checked again back to normal

Do you happen to use AV software or a transparent proxy that scans https traffic? That’s usually done using a local CA certificate so that the AV software or proxy can MitM the connection. I’ve seen intermittent errors caused by buggy implementations of that. More specifically, your Firefox error code has been connected to some Kasperksy products (but not necessarily just limited to that).

From what I can tell, your server configuration looks fine, so I’d look into client-side issues first.

Yeah, Avast is not exactly known for their stable and secure MitM proxy. :blush:
