Python-Django [SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER] Error

Question

While I'm trying to connect to my localhost, I get [SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER] error. I'm using '8080' port by default. Previously, I was getting ProxyError, then I changed my url from 'http' to 'https' and now I get SSLError. I've checked some solutions, which prompts to change the port number. Does it have to do anything with the port number, or something else?

views.py:

endpoint = 'https://****:8080/MyApp/services/DBConnection/callLoginProcedure'

def index(request):
    post = request.POST
    if request.POST.get('login_button'):
        qd = QueryDict(mutable=True)
        qd.update(
            inputPhoneNumber=request.POST.get('phone_num'),
            inputPassword=request.POST.get('password')
        )
        response = requests.post('{}?{}'.format(endpoint, qd.urlencode()), verify=False)
        result = response.json()
        messages.info(request, result)

    return render(request, 'login/index.html')

The error is as follows

I dont know much about these protocols. How can I add ssl certificate? — Exqra

It's okay, just search on Google. You'll find lots of online resources. — Kushan Gunasekera

endpoint = 'https://****:8080/MyApp/services/DBConnection/callLoginProcedure'

From the your edits in your previous question the original URL can be retrieved. When trying this it is clear that the endpoint you are trying to access only supports HTTP on the given port 8080 and not HTTPS as you are trying to use.

[SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER] Error

The error you see stems from the attempt to access a site with HTTPS which only can do HTTP. Your clients starts a TLS handshake by sending a ClientHello and expects the server to reply with a ServerHello. Only, the server sends a plain HTTP response. The client then tries to interpret this response as TLS ServerHello which includes figuring out the TLS protocol version from some bytes at a specific position in the response. Since this is no TLS response is expected the information there make no sense when interpreted as TLS which results in this strange error message.

The proper way is to access the URL by HTTP not HTTPS. If you get problems there (you mention some ProxyError without details) then you need to fix these problems and not just attempt to access the site by HTTPS - which as you see only causes other problems.

Helpful answer, thanks. Do you have any suggestion to solve this "ProxyError"?

Steffen Ullrich Over a year ago

@Exqra: Either you are using a proxy you should not use or you are using a proxy which is blocking access (common in corporate networks) or maybe something else. Unfortunately, with only ProxyError one can not narrow down what exactly the problem is. But hopefully you know more about your working environment and can decide which of the possible causes I gave might be the likely one.
