Can't contact visual server.

[ClarkDan]

When trying to set this up after dragging the test visual on a report I get this error:

Can't contact visual server

Make sure you have the certs installed & have the server running

[ClarkDan]

The certs installed correctly. This is what I get after pulling the test
visual in a report.
I followed these steps.

I can't see the image. Also, are there any errors in the console?

[ClarkDan]

Is the test image installed in a local directory?

pbiviz start throwing error ......yu must be in the root folder of the server....
Certificate "localhost" is installed under "Trusted Root Certificate", have rebooted also....not sure what else to check. Any help?

[oleg-vasilyev]

@spatney, @raananzvi I had the same problem. All worked a couple of weeks ago, but now in all browsers except IE EDGE I have such a screen:

Reinstalling the certificate does not help.
My colleagues at work have the same problem. Please do not force us to debug in IE, it is very painful.

[Ozymandy]

@oleg-vasilyev I confirm. Have the same issue on my project right now

[ignatvilesov]

Please follow these steps to bypass the security issue:

• pbiviz start
• Open https://localhost:8080/assets/status in Google Chrome
• Open the Advanced
• Click the Proceed to localhost (unsafe)
• Back to the report with your debug visual
• Reload visual code

Please let us know if it works for you well.

[oleg-vasilyev]

@ignatvilesov Worked, thank you very much! Adieu, IE :D

This info may be relevant:

To fix this, you need to supply an extra parameter to openssl when you're creating the cert, basically

-sha256 -extfile v3.ext

where v3.ext is a file like so, with %%DOMAIN%% replaced with the same name you use as your Common Name. More info here and over here

v3.ext

authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer
basicConstraints=CA:FALSE
keyUsage = digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, keyEncipherment, dataEncipherment
subjectAltName = @alt_names
 
[alt_names]
DNS.1 = %%DOMAIN%%

Note: Scripts that address this issue, and create fully trusted ssl certs for use in Chrome, Safari and from Java clients can be found here

[AviSander]

This has been fixed in the latest version of the toolset (1.7). We've updated the certificate.
thx.

I'm continuing to have this issue on OS X. It is not using the default localhost certificate and is instead generating a new certificate. The generated certificate does not include the Subject Alt Name field, making it invalid in Chrome and Firefox.

@ww2406 as workaround try to use solution from thread: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58802767/no-proceed-anyway-option-on-neterr-cert-invalid-in-chrome-on-macos/58957322#58957322
