Server Version#: 1.32
Player Version#:
I just updated it from 1.31 to 1.32.
I’m using a Let’s Encrypt certificate which worked correctly before the update.
The error is:
NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID
Seems as if the “Custom certificate location” under network settings is being ignored.
Is it me, or anyone else has this issue?
Update your cert creation,
There are many posts about this all over the forum.
Hello
Sorry but I’ve the same issue. As you suggest I’ve renewed my certificate and I’ve updated my settings but my Plex Media Server is still using a *.plex.direct certificate and not mine.
I’ve never had this issue. Usually I update Plex Media Server without updating my certificate.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Sorry, I’ve found the answer:
Did you make the needed change to your certificate generation command line and restart PMS ? (as referenced directly above your post)
@romain789 This is the full solution, which worked for me: OpenSSL v3.0.0 and PMS.
Same problem. Never had any issues wth other updates.
Definetaly not my server certificate which is causing the problem
The server's security certificate comes from *.38b216a5b913463693e00993XXXXXX.plex.direct. This could be caused by a misconfiguration or an attacker intercepting your connection.
It reports strangely. (you asked for your cert, it only has its own. There’s a mismatch. That mismatch is what’s being reported.)
If you’re using 1.32.0 then UPDATE how you generate your certificate to AES-256 or better as shown in the Tips How-To
I have downgraded to 1.31.2.6810 and it is working again.
As of September 11, 2023, you won’t be able to use your existing encryption so you’ll have to update.
Please observe the expiration of the existing version v1.1.1 support
Either upgrade your cert creation now or later – your choice.
