can't connect visual server - running local host and have installed correct certificates
- 8 years ago
Ufff I found the solution, have the same problem as yours tries many different ways install and create certificate.
One mistake I was doing earlier was not installing my certificate in proper location and the proper location was Trusted Root Certification Authorities. I always did first option.. uuuh
I just did a test using Microsoft Edge on Windows 10. It works so long as the server is listening on port 8080.

Similar issue here. I received the message in Chrome, which was very frustrating. However in Explorer and Edge it works. Odd and annoying.

Hello petermcnally, moeenuddin,
Chrome browser blocks this address https://localhost:8080 because of non-valid certificate.
Please open the following link in separate browser tab:
https://localhost:8080/assets/status
Chrome will show the warning message, click advanced > proceed to unsafe version.
After that Chrome will work with dev visual correctly.

Tried several things and it worked last time... this time again, it worked right after doing this.. So install the cert as trusted root and then do this to make Chrome trust localhost.
