Net::err_cert_common_name_invalid

My domain is: https://born-cloud.duckdns.org/

Hi i have the problem that i created a openssl private certificate in order that i cant find a solution for using duckdns. After i spend some time in research i find the txt solution and could get a certificate.

But now i have the problem that the browser shows that the certificate is not safe ....

Hope you guys could help me out.

Ubuntu 20.04

The IP address your domain points to (100.68.95.147) is a CGNAT address; nobody outside of your local network can connect to it.

Instead, it might help to post a screenshot of the browser warning.

Thanks! Due to the way wildcard certificates work:

However, a wildcard certificate including only the name *.example.com will not be valid for example.com : the substituted label can not be empty. If you want the certificate to be valid for example.com , you also need to include example.com (i.e. without the *. part) on the certificate.

You need to make sure that you include both born-cloud.duckdns.org and *.born-cloud.duckdns.org on your certificate. https://born-cloud.duckdns.org won't be covered if you only include *.born-cloud.duckdns.org.
