The following error repeats for exactly 44 seconds on page load, and then finally the websocket connection will succeed. After that communication works fine. I'm running from the background javascript page of a chrome extension on same localhost. localhost is 64bit Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with Chrome 49

I don't understand why ssl is coming in to play at all? I've tried to set every relevant configuration on pusher fake server and javascript client to be unencrypted.
