What is common cert name invalid?
A common name mismatch error occurs when the common name or SAN of your SSL/TLS Certificate does not match the domain or address bar in the browser. This can happen simply by visiting https://example.com instead of https://www.example.com if the certificate does not have them both listed in the SAN of the certificate.
Why is my certificate invalid in Chrome?
If you're a website owner and your website displays this error message, then there could be two reasons why the browser says the cert authority is invalid: You're using a self-signed SSL certificate, OR. The certificate authority (CA) that issued your SSL certificate isn't trusted by Google Chrome.
How do I force chrome to accept a certificate?
Navigate to the site with the cert you want to trust, and click through the usual warnings for untrusted certificates. In the address bar, right click on the red warning triangle and "Not secure" message and, from the resulting menu, select "Certificate" to show the certificate.
How do I force Chrome to trust a certificate?

Why does Chrome keep saying my connection is not private?
If the site still says “your connection is not private,” then you should try clearing your cache. To open your Chrome browser in an incognito tab, go to the three vertical dots on the top right of your screen. Open the drop-down menu and select “New incognito window” or hit the keys ctrl+shift+N.
