Hi friends,

When I direct to a website I got error as in image: An error occurred during a connection to website xxxxxxxxx. A PKCS #11 module returned CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, indicating that an unrecoverable error has occurred.

Error code: SEC_ERROR_PKCS11_GENERAL_ERROR

Hope someone can help me, thanks. Best Regards,
