@sdetweil said in Activating HTTPS causes black screen:

@karsten13 the changelog says it should work

I had read the Changelog as well, and noticed the following entry: -

• Add HTTPS support and update config.js.sample

@karsten13 I am happy to wait for the v2.12.0 release. 1st July isn’t that far away ;-)

Yes. I created a folder under MagicMirror called ssl for the certs

I am running Magic Mirror 2.11.0 on a Pi 4. Runs beautifully. Really impressed.

Now, I am trying to configure it so it uses HTTPS. I have obtained the required .key and .crt files, and dropped them into a folder that MagicMirror can access.

When I change config.js to be as follows, I get a black screen: -

useHttps: true,
httpsPrivateKey: "ssl/mirror.key",
httpsCertificate: "ssl/mirror.crt",

By returning useHttps to false, MagicMirroir runs perfectly again, but obviously only using HTTP.

Any ideas why activating HTTPS causes a black screen?
