SSL Localhost Privacy error
I setup ssl on localhost (wamp), I made the ssl crt with GnuWIn32.
When I try to login with fb in Chrome I get the following message:
URL:
https://localhost/ServerSide/fb-callback.php?code=.....#_=_
Error:
Your connection is not private.
Attackers might be trying to steal your information from localhost (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). NET::ERR_CERT_INVALID. localhost normally uses encryption to protect your information. When Chrome tried to connect to localhost this time, the website sent back unusual and incorrect credentials. This may happen when an attacker is trying to pretend to be localhost, or a Wi-Fi sign-in screen has interrupted the connection. Your information is still secure because Chrome stopped the connection before any data was exchanged.You cannot visit localhost right now because the website sent scrambled credentials that Chrome cannot process. Network errors and attacks are usually temporary, so this page will probably work later.
My SSL Config:
Listen 443
SSLCipherSuite HIGH:MEDIUM:!aNULL:!MD5
SSLPassPhraseDialog builtin
SSLSessionCache "shmcb:c:/wamp/www/ssl/logs/ssl_scache(512000)"

My question is how to setup valid SSL certificate on localhost? or do I need to edit my configuration?
Answer
In Chrome, you can use url chrome://flags/#allow-insecure-localhost to allow insecure localhost. Refer to this Stack Overflow for more information.
