# SSL Problems

 * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-problems-2/)
 * Store URL (if not provided we can’t help much): tilfordwinery.com
    WordPress 
   version: 4.1 WP eCommerce version: Custom Gold Cart version: N/A Theme: Custom
   built.
 * I did this: Earlier I was able access the checkout page as part of a test. When
   I installed the pricing deals plugin suddenly, checkout page was no longer accessible.
   And I got this message:
 * > SSL connection error
   > Unable to make a secure connection to the server. This may be a problem with
   > the server, or it may be requiring a client authentication certificate that
   > you don’t have.
   >  Error code: ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
 * Tried doing disabling and enabling plugins and clearing out the case but still
   no progress.
 * We’re not ready to go live yet but I am wondering whether not buying a SSL certificate
   would solve the problem? Immediately?

 * in short; make http instead of https connection:
 * wp-content/plugins/wp-e-commerce/wpsc-admin/admin.php :
    find line: “$rss = fetch_feed(‘
   [https://wpecommerce.org/feed/?category_name=news&#8217](https://wpecommerce.org/feed/?category_name=news&#8217););”
   and replace with: $rss = fetch_feed( ‘[http://wpecommerce.org/feed/?category_name=news&#8217](http://wpecommerce.org/feed/?category_name=news&#8217););
