We have a public website developed using Oracle APEX which uses Tomcat. The site runs on a Windows 2016 server and is behind a wildacrd ssl. A few users reported Chromium browsers (Chrome & Edge) were having a problem connecting to the site. The error displayed is "ERR_CONNECTION_RESET".

When run from IE of Firefox the site works fine. Many Chromium browsers also work fine. We discovered internally some of our Chrome & Edge browser work, and some don't.

Troubleshooting steps we've taken so far include;

  1. F12 on chrome. The error which displays is "crbug/1173575, non-JS module files deprecated." When searching for these issues the only thing found is a reference to launch.json which seems .NET related and this is a Tomcat application.
  2. Run Fiddler. When enabling Fiddler on the client using Fiddler's builtin proxy the site works fine.
  3. Try different SSL certificate. We have tried two different wildcard SSLs neither work. We tried single SSL and the Chrome/Edge browsers which didn't work, started working.
  4. Run SSL diagnostic tools. Everything tried thus far show the SSL to be in good shape. With only TLS 1.2 allowed.
  5. Verified versions of browsers and OSes which work & don't work. Found no pattern.
  6. Ran cleanup on Chrome.
  7. Tried a computer with a non-working browser on different networks.

At this point we do not what to try next. Which is why I am asking for help here.

I will update this question as we try additional steps.
