Did you ever get any where on this issue?

I have the same symptom (NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID) but I have a different error in my splunkd.log

Just in case anyone is wondering, the error I'm getting is "WARN HttpListener - Socket error from 127.0.0.1:6252 while idling: error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number"
