    The error message is pretty clear: the SSL certificate used is invalid or not trusted. Without any information about how the server is configured or what certificate is used there's not much we can help you with. Start by clicking on the lock icon to inspect the certificate, then maybe contact your host to help you with the correct setup. – deceze Aug 18 '14 at 09:25

Because the server has a self-signed certificate, the warning is coming up.

Only certficitates signed by trusted CA's are accepted in browsers without a warning.

If you're searching for a low cost (or no cost) certificate, you can use StartSSL. This is a CA which is trusted in most browsers, so you will not get this warning any more.

What you need is access to the server and a toplevel email address.

But - most providers won't give you access to their servers.

So most of them give you the possibility to buy trusted certificates in their store. Just take a look at your account.

  • Now its clear that's the certificate issue but if proceed anyway its redirect me to https://www.domain.com/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi any solution for that – Jay Zee Aug 18 '14 at 09:38
  • If you select "proceed anyway" the certificate error is ignored and you can use the page normal and encrypted. – Marcel Balzer Aug 18 '14 at 09:54
  • thats what i am saying after that i click "proceed anyway" i redirect to https://www.domain.com/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi can u tell why it redirect me to that page instead of this https://www.domain.com/ do i need to do some settings ? – Jay Zee Aug 18 '14 at 11:11
  • I can't explain you why your provider does this. But he has the possibilty (woth vhost configurations) to redirect you always to defaultwebpage.cgi - there is nothing you can do against it. Maybe you have to buy the SSL feature? You have to ask your provider about it. – Marcel Balzer Aug 18 '14 at 11:23
