SSL Error - GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol

[umutm]

While sending a bulk of HTTPS requests, I'm randomly getting the error below:

Error: 29472:error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol:openssl\ssl\s23_clnt.c:683:

For the same URLs, it sometimes happens but sometimes not.

I have got "rejectUnauthorized: false (don't know if this can be used with the module)" and "strictSSL: false" but couldn't ignore the error.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Seems like this was my fault using the default node-http on a part of the code and sending HTTP requests to HTTPs urls on few occasions.

Hmm- I'm having this problem as well, but unsure what's going on. I'm trying to hit an https url, and only using the request module.

Urgh. Nevermind! Maybe this will help someone else-- I was trying to communicate with an SSL server over https://, but using port 80.

Thanks mikermcneil! So obvious when you think about it.
