Running on http port 8096, but not on https port 8920...

[pokyCoder 1]

I have all of the settings and a certificate set up for https, but for some reason the server is not running on https and is blocking all incoming connections on port 8920.  I don't even know what info would be needed to diagnose.  Here are my Network settings (private information obscured):
 

LAN Networks: 192.168.1.0/24

Local IP address: 192.168.1.2

Local http port number: 8096

Local https port number: 8920

Allow remote connections to this Emby Server: YES

Remote IP address filter: <BLANK>

Remote IP address filter mode: Blacklist

Public http port number: 8096

Public https port number: 8920

External domain: media.[my domain name]

Custom ssl certificate path: [path]/[name].p12

Certificate password: *********

Secure connection mode: Required for all remote connections

Max simultaneous video streams: Unlimited

Internet streaming bit rate (Mbps): <BLANK>

The dashboard shows "Running on http port 8096."

@Lukedoes the certificate need to be pfx?

I updated the certificate file to use the pfx extension and made the appropriate connection in the Network settings, and it did not fix the problem nor remove the error you cite.

more precise

I forgot to mention, since I know it would be important, that I did restart the server after making those changes.

Check ownership and permissions of the cert store. As long as the file is PKCS12 format it doesn't really matter if the extension is p12 or pfx.

 

[pokyCoder 1]

What ownership/permissions are needed on the certificate?

[pokyCoder 1]

Okay, I feel foolish, but changing the owner of the certificate to emby (and not root) fixed the issue.

Thanks for the feedback.
