How Do I Troubleshoot 804 HTTPS Crawl Error?
-
In my Moz crawl report I get:
Crawl Error
Moz encountered an error on one or more pages on your site
Error Code 804: HTTPS (SSL) Error EncounteredThe Moz Help Section only says:
804 HTTPS (SSL) error
804 errors result from a site with misconfigured SSL software. If Moz's crawlers cannot correctly interpret an SSL response for a home page, the crawl ends immediately.
My site is publicly accessible on https -
And I'm not seeing any issues with my certificate.
Can anyone help me out? What steps can I take to troubleshoot this error? If SSL is misconfigured, how do I configure it properly?

I'm having this same issue on a SquareSpace site. With issues I've seen from SS in the past, like blocking SEMRush, I wouldn't be surprised if it's them instead of a Moz thing.
Has anyone else had issues with this & squarespace or is that just a bad idea? -
Is this still an issue for anyone else?
We keep getting it in our Moz account for our website https://www.collegeatlas.org. Unsure of how to troubleshoot it because I don't know what the issue is. It seems that Google or Yahoo have a problem getting us indexed.

Hi,
What did they answer on you this 804 Error?
Just got the error on my crawl and wondering what I should do about it.
Thanks!

Dirk,
Thank you! I reached out to Moz support directly.

Hi,
I did a test crawl of your site with Screaming Frog & didn't find anything special. Sampling a few pages of your site didn't reveal anything really specific regarding to the SSL certificate. I would try to contact Moz support directly (http://moz.com/about/contact). They should be able to give you some more info on the error you encounter.
Sorry that I can't offer more help
rgds,
Dirk

Moz bot has trouble crawling Angular JS - I believe it's seeing the SPA (Single Page Application) before Universal. Anyone else have this issue? What is the fix?
The Moz bot user agent detection settings are able to read Universal, but the Single Page Application (SPA) version partially loads on the website before Universal. Because of this, Moz (and possibly search engines) think we have massive duplicate content issues. For example, the crawl report said a particular product page (which has about 1,000 words) has 33,000 words and has duplicate content with over 300 other pages. This makes me believe it's only picking up the SPA version. Has anyone come across this, and what would be the fix?

Moz Crawler Causing Server Timeouts... Crawling thousands of non-existant pages with query parameters
Moz crawler is crawling all pages like this: http://www.xxxx.com/?product_count=100&product_order=desc&product_orderby=date http://www.xxxx.com/?product_count=100&product_order=desc&paged=1 http://www.xxx.com/?product_count=100&product_order=desc&product_view=grid Last month it crawled 80,000 pages on a site with less than 100 pages. Is there a way to select only certain pages to be crawled? Right now it is still crawling this site, since Monday morning and it's Tuesday mid-day. Every Monday it is causing time-outs from high band width on our server. Just getting ready to delete this client from the account unless there is a solution someone can give us. Thanks.

Moz Crawl Report Increase in Errors?
Has anyone else noticed a huge increase over the past couple weeks in crawl issues in their dashboards? Without being able to see historical data week over week, I can't tell what's been added. Is this some update with the tool? I'm not seeing any health issues with this feature on the Moz Health page, it just seems strange that I'm seeing this across all our accounts.

Issues with Crawl Test and SSL Certificate
So I have having issues with the Crawl Test being able to crawl my site accurately due to what the tool is saying is a "SSL Certificate Error" (804 : HTTPS (SSL) error encountered when requesting page.) Only thing is that I have no warnings about this SSL issue in Search Console and when I check the SSL on https://www.sslshopper.com it comes back just fine. Anybody know why this might be happening or have encountered this issue before?

Canonicals in crawling reports
The crawling reports gives info about several meta data missing, what about the lack of a canonical tag? This would be nice too... and images without alt tag (or empty).

Moz Dupe content crawl anomaly
Hi Moz has completed a crawl for a site i'm working on which also has a development area (hence with lots of dupe content) on a sub domain (and this dev area hasn't been hidden from crawlers via password, robots, gwt etc etc). Moz dupe content report is not showing any of these urls though even though my campaign setting is on 'root' domain so i would have thought report should be listing the subdomain urls as dupe content (because they are dupe content). Any ideas ? Cheers Dan
