SSL Testing on Nexus Mods


Dark0ne

Recommended Posts

Since you're stepping over TLS/SSL, can you update your post so that other users would know a manual fix to solve their problem?

 

The problem is that if you visit a mod on nexus by HTTP, switching tab doesn't work because you get an "E" as result. (An error should be more meaningful ...) To solve this, the user has to ensure that he's visiting a mod over HTTPS

 

Example:

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/75175/? ==> will give "E" when switching tab. Fix it to

 

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/75175/? ==> notice the addition of "s". This allows you to switch the tabs.

 

 

Or set up the routes that HTTP requests get redirected. (but i don't advise that).

Reason of the error: SOP restriction. The admins have to set up CORS header correctly to resolve this.

Before switching the tabs, ensure that you're visiting the page over HTTPS instead of HTTP. Just add " https://" before the www.nexusmods.com/< ... > in the address bar, then hit enter.

Same here an E is displayed but only on mod pages.

Using "http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/49756"

* the lock with a yellow triangle and an info icon (i in a circle) are on the address bar for THIS web page.
* on mod pages there is no lock but an info icon when I mouse over it, it says "this website does not supply Identity information"
* I can see the main mod pages but I am unable to get a description, post ,images etc on the page - just displays an E.
*pressing the green download button gives me a white blank box with a title "an error occured"
*Within NMM 61,16 when I try to use endorse by pressing the green thumb it said can't find the ID on nexus.

When I put an s like
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/49756

the mod pages seem to work but now the lock icon has turned green but the triangle is still there. This may be because I use Avast virus scanner don't know.

Anyway NMM still has a problem with 'can't find the ID on nexus' and not sure but it is taking a long time to install a mod.

Hope this helps.

I had to pick today to do a reinstall of Fallout 4...sheesh...Clicking on the Mod Version in NMM to update the mod, it opens my browser, Firefox, and takes me to the mod page on Nexus. If I clck on the tab to go to the files, readme ,images, etc. I lose all the text in the middle where the files for downlod or pictures, etc are located.
