Adding a certificate for the heroku application

Question

After I followed the instructions on heroku to add a certificate from DNSimple, I still have this error when I try to access the website:

www.web.com uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because the issuer chain is not provided. The certificate is valid only for the following names: * .herokuapp.com, herokuapp.com

(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)

So what could be the problem?

Answer 1

Your hostname points to the endpoint of the Geroku application.

➜  ~  dig www.dcaclab.com +short
web.herokuapp.com.
us-east-1-a.route.herokuapp.com.
54.243.166.168

CNAMEmust specify the Heroku SSL endpoint .
