My Android app connects to a web service on my server. Everything worked fine yesterday, but today I got the error.

I didn't make any changes to the web service, nor to the app. I suspect it's something wrong with my server, but don't know where to start.

I tested it on both Android 5 and Android 6 devices.

Here is the error:
