Error: "Your connection is not private"

[Jhilam Biswas]

Hi all,

I have setup NxFilter to be my primary DNS server and it is blocking all URLs/domains successfully listed under shallalist. However, for some cases, it is behaving weirdly.
I have used a Admin block for facebook.com
Google.com is blocked under 'searchengines' in shallalist.

However, when I am trying to access these websites in Chrome/ IE, I am getting the error as shown in the snapshots. Please find them attached. 

Any suggestions as to how how I can make this work normally?

Thanks!

That's your browser warning. Read this,

However we are writing a Chrome extension to show you the block-page on HTTPS. It will only work with Chrome but better than nothing.

Hi Jinhee,

I tried changing the https port to 444. 
Thereafter, when I tried to open the admin portal, I got the following error ( see below at the end)
I tried changing the port back to 443, yet the same error
Whenever I run startup.sh, it seems to be starting fine, giving me logs etc.
However, when i am running shutdown.sh, it's throwing me an error: ERR

Please help me!! The error is as below:

This site can’t be reached

localhost refused to connect.

• Search Google for localhost admin

ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

Hi Jinhee,

I guess i messed up even more. As a trisl to make it work,  I tried changing the listening ip address to 127.0.0.1

I ran startup

I got the error: couldn't update config db

Next, I tried changing it back to 0.0.0.0

I again ran startup

I got the error: Couldn't connect to traffic db, coudn't connect to blacklist db

Please find the sceenshot attached. 


Please help me!!

Try to go back to the old cfg.properties or the default one. And the last one might be coming from a permission problem. Try to run it as admin.
