#SSL Issue Megathread
170 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Anyone is welcome to chat in this one, we should use this to keep all investigation and information centralized so I don't need to go through like 5 different threads
Also feel free to randomly try again as I try to change things to fix it
What is SSL?
Guess I’ll just have to use my hotspot whenever I want to port stuff til it gets fixed or an update rolls around
At this point it's not a fortnite porting issue
everything is correct on my end
It's some sort of weird isp behavior or something that occurred when the cert was auto renewed
at least that's my theory
I would assume this resolves itself in the next few days
Well at the very least I know it’s an internet issue so I’ll keeping messing around with that til I figure something out; regardless I appreciate the help boss
Yep thanks
Yall think it's possible that this is cause of the layoffs?
no its not
no this has nothing to do with fortnite or fortnite porting
Is the SSL issue the thing with nothing loading/showing up in the app?
if you're getting errors for every request to https://api.fortniteporting.app, then you are having this issue
Nah, outfits load, then I search, and then everything's gone
awesome
Legit just did the VPN method and everything loaded...
Question what isp does everyone have?
I have no clue
I have Comcast/Xfinity. Restarting my router fixes the problem, but only briefly
same I have Xfinity and did the same thing but it work a bit as well
the briefly thing is so confusing
I asked my wireless communications/networking professor about the situation and he was confused as well
which is why I assume it's some sort of weird isp caching thing that should eventually resolve itself
Ok because I have Xfinity also
Might be an Xfinity thing😭
😭
Could it be Xfinity but just certain regions? I'm having all sorts of problems with various websites today
Also have xfinity
everything is working fine for me its just porting that is not working
So weird that my friend's having the issue where no assets are loading despite installing the app like normal and setting the correct directories
and this is apparently the problem? I thought it was a weird installation issue for my friend
Guess I'll just wait this issue out
ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS USE HOTSPOT FOR 15 SECONDS THEN SWITCH BACK
^^
^^
Hot spot? Like switch your PC's connection?
Just tried this, didn't work
It only works if you use hotspots the all the time, if you try to go back then the problem comes back😭
I hope so too
Ye thats what i did i used my phones hotspot to load in then switched back
do i ask here?
Thank god, I wasn’t the only one with evil WiFi, not that it’s a good thing.
I'll try it
Is everything good now?
nope
This gotta be top 10 ragebaiting moments of all time
gonna try something today to do more diagnostics
I'm gonna make an alternate API to see if it's an issue with my api or the API domain itself
@royal lance https://api2.fortniteporting.app/v1/aes
can you try opening this on your broken network?
https://api.fortniteporting.app/v1/aes should not load
https://api2.fortniteporting.app/v1/aes should load
or @stray arrow @abstract pewter @hushed pine @misty elk anyone else is welcome to try too
this one open
api2?
yep the second open
okay that certainly helps
worst case scenario, just fallback to api2
which is so interesting, because they both point to the same api, but just two diff subdomains
let me make an fp build with this rreal quick
and i'll send it here for you to test
ok
for the time being, this should work for everyone having those issues
yep this one works
as expected
i probably will still need y'all to test some stuff to fix the main api tho
ok thats fine with me
Yeah nothing here on my end still
Did you download the version half posted in the chat?
"pakchunk1003optional-WindowsClient.pak" has strange mount point "/", mounting to root
He said to use that for now until he fixes the regular port is fixed
Yeah still gettinh that
could you look for something for me?
yea
np
do your logs show api2.fortniteporting.app or api.fortniteporting.app
console tab
I think I found something
nvm
api2
this version has fixed sign-in and repository url for updates
i forgot to change those to api2 as well
use this
if you're still having issues without the ssl errors, you did something else wrong
Xfinity has been blocking the api😭
well that's different
So you would either have to turn off Advanced security or allow it
Worked for me
20 files
where did you get this prompt?
newest
@flat pier
The Xfinity app
Thats weird because it never did that for me
thanks for the help btw
I had to unblock these two
also i broke desktop fortniteporting auth
1 sec
fixed
SSL Issue Fixes as of 03-28-2026
Open the Xfinity app and add exceptions/allow https://api.fortniteporting.app and https://supabase.fortniteporting.app
OR
Use https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1487070001348477060/1487636896879349760/FortnitePorting.exe?ex=69c9dd53&is=69c88bd3&hm=d364c488d0a54a75f01c65e8e9a560035899ce844912f14593818a8cbef827bd&
damn they responded quick
they confimed there's a block on the api and the request has been escalated!!
I get the SSL errors but it lets me continue to use the program with the new executable you posted above
and load assets
as expected
if it starts working for anyone over the next 48 hours lmk
sorry is this part of that error?
actually it works perfectly now
despite that error message from the beginning
yeah supabase.fortniteporting.app got caught in the flagging as well
I didn't add the alternate domain for that one
is this using the bug fix version?
or plain old 4.0.2
plain old
oh bet
maybe that means they fixed the api blocking
just need to wait on the supabase ticket
seems like it. ty for helping initiate the fix on their end!
Yep the plain old one is working like normal! 🎉
yay!!
🥳
thanks for the help everyone
at least it's fixed now and now we know if anything like this happens again
awesome ty!
yay
Sry i didnt reply but thx for fixing FP all the time 😁
