Cannot connect network calendar

I am self-hosting a EteSync server in my home and have the EteSync-Dav software setup on my local machine. When I connect to the calendar link associated with my EteSync account directly and input my credentials it successfully downloads a .ics file. However, when I attempt to connect to my calendar using the exact same link in Thunderbird it results in this error message: "Could not find calendars at this location. Please check your settings." I've gone back through the entire process of setting up my EteSync server and the EteSync-Dav adapter to rule out user-error multiple times and I wanted to check and verify that this wasn't just simply a bug on Thunderbird's side. My hunch has been that this is likely an SSL cert issue, since the EteSync-Dav adapter was setup with an SSL cert, but the cert is installed at the OS level, so I am not sure why this would be the case. I even tried to manually import the cert into Thunderbird with no luck.

Thank you in advance.

So it turns out that it did indeed have to do with EteSync-Dev being setup as an https connection. When I simply opted to do http instead it worked just fine. I'm still not sure why importing the certificate directly into Thunderbird didn't work however.
