[The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception.] Mac os

Thank you Michaela I tried what you said, but I think I’ve finally found a way for me to install the apps.

So I had a problem where I got the error:
[The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception.]

But I could not see any error log messages either in the app, or the litium log, as I wrote in the first post.

What I could see in the Litium app was that the http client logical handler was making a request to the app, and that’s it.

What I tried now was that I changed the url
From: https://anysubdomain.localtest.me:10021
To: https://localhost:10021

Now I got a new error in BO

And in logs I now get an error:

System.InvalidOperationException: IDX20803: Unable to obtain configuration from: 'System.String'

It’s logging something else in the stacktrace which might be of interest:

System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: Resource temporarily unavailable (yoursubdomain.localtest.me:5001)

Seems like a DNS issue.

According to this forum post the solution was to change the entry of the dns of the payment/shipment app to 192.168.65.254

I tried this a while back and it didn’t work, because as Niklas say you should try to do the following command:
nslookup http://litium.localtest.me 127.0.0.1

And get back:

Server:		127.0.0.1
Address:	127.0.0.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
http://litium.localtest.me	canonical name = host.docker.internal.
Name:	host.docker.internal
Address: 192.168.65.254

This did not work before, but now it did ¯|(ツ)/¯ could’ve been that I did not have my Docker desktop up to date but ¯|(ツ)

The lookup is for the domain localtest.me so you can use any subdomain, it should not matter:

> nslookup http://wellthiscouldbeanysubdomain.localtest.me 127.0.0.1

Server:		127.0.0.1
Address:	127.0.0.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
http://wellthiscouldbeanysubdomain.localtest.me	canonical name = host.docker.internal.
Name:	host.docker.internal
Address: 192.168.65.254

I changed back the DNS value to this address:

And Voila.

Some of my dear friends also recommended me:

Creating a container with the port 53 fails with the error address already in use. As a workaround, deactivate network acceleration by adding "kernelForUDP": false, in the settings.json file located at ~/Library/Group Containers/group.com.docker/settings.json.

Here is my docker-compose file in case this might be of help
