Failed to connect website.com:443

Eddy | Last updated: Jan 25, 2018 04:46PM UTC

I'm having issues connecting to a website, I can connect without the proxy on but as soon as I enable the proxy and try to connect, Burp will give me the "Failed to connect to website.com:443". I've added the site to the Hostname Resolution project options and it would work for a bit, I doubled checked the the Burp ssl cert is loaded as well. I cannot tell whether it is on my end or theirs.

If you see connection failure messages for every request, then this suggests that Burp isn't able to connect to the destination server. Do you normally use a LAN proxy server to access the web? If so, you will need to configure details of this in Burp at Options > Connections > Upstream proxy servers. There's some more information here: - https://support.portswigger.net/customer/en/portal/articles/2363078-burp-suite-options-upstream-proxy-servers

Hi David, I had the same problem and did everything that it takes but didn't get any solution. After 2 days I realized it could be firewall what was resisting me to Connect to the Website and I was correct. You just need to Disable the firewall of your computer, either for that specific port you are using as a proxy or the whole firewall.

Do you connect to the internet via a corporate proxy?

Liam, PortSwigger Agent | Last updated: Sep 04, 2018 10:48AM UTC

Prudhvi, what issues have you had configuring your corporate proxy as an upstream proxy? Are you encountering any error messages? The proxy port is the port that the proxy listens on.

Burp User | Last updated: Sep 12, 2018 03:10AM UTC

Yes . In case of corporate proxy how to connect to internet?I have tried upstream proxy but didn't worked. Can any one explain the proxy port in upstream proxy server?

Hi Sanjeev, Thank you for your message. Can you provide some more information regarding your environment setup? Have you installed the Burp CA Certificate, as detailed in the following link: https://support.portswigger.net/customer/portal/articles/1783075-installing-burp-s-ca-certificate-in-your-browser Do you normally use a corporate proxy to connect to the internet?

error Failed to connect to website.com:80 All other websites are opening but when a website has port specified with it then even if i am not intercepting only connected through burpsuite using foxyproxy then also burpsuite error comes. I am using internet through mobile wifi hotspot.

Hannah, PortSwigger Agent | Last updated: Dec 31, 2019 02:05PM UTC

Hi Aditya Are you proxying traffic through a mobile device or a desktop? Can you connect to the websites in the same way when not using Burp? Have you tried using your browser's default proxy settings rather than FoxyProxy?
