What to do ? Firefox does not let me to my webpages in my local homeserver
I have a home server 192.168.0.240 in my local network. Firefox does not let me in to my own pages. On the address line appears text "Not secure",
I have found no way to get in. I have there REALLY IMPORTANT TOOLS AND MATERIAL and I need it AS SOON AS POSSIBLE !!!!
This is really stupid. I have used these pages until this weekend. I have had this problem many years, but always found some way to make it work. I am NOT going to buy a certificate to every server I have home. it costs $$$$.

If it's your local network, you can always create your own certificate. Right?
If they're apparently not secure, do you need to access them via HTTPS? Can't they just serve plain old HTTP unencrypted?
After spending some hours I managed to build a certificate. IMHO Apache should have some simple tool to handle this kind of sittuations. Even if people still don't have home servers, there might come a day, when some starts to market them.
Myself I have had home server about 25 years and could not arrange my living without one.
