Facebook App SSL Error: Any solution to this???

by LivingCovers Posted: 13 years ago 10 replies

Please Warriors, I'm facing a debacle right now because the first app I tried to create on Facebook keeps bringing up this error and there's no trick I haven't tried but it still persists. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to www.websitename.com.
SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length.
(Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long)

  This usually means the implementation of SSL on your server is not correct. The error is usually caused by a server side problem which the server administrator will need to investigate.
  
  Read here the recommendations for the the server administrator:
  configuration - ssl_error_rx_record_too_long and Apache SSL - Stack Overflow

  Good question, I don't know :confused:
  
  Normally you have to pay for a SSL certificate, maybe thats the key to this problem. I know Facebook requires a SSL connection and i used a paid SSL certificate for that.

Oh...I guess I won't be using FB apps for some time to come...cos it seems I can't find an alternative cos I can't afford a paid service right now. Thanks for the tips...pretty much 'ppreciate it.

  It is possible to use free SSL, but most browsers will show warning and block user from the accessing the page by default and ask for confirmation. That's why paid SSL is the recommended choice.
