If you are using a certificate, the --server-name should be the name of the
host the certificate is for. A secure site and certificate shouldn't be set up
for localhost.
If for some reason you do need to be able to access a secure site via
localhost, even though that would then mean the certificate wouldn't be
trusted, try adding the option '--allow-localhost'.
The help string for the option is:
Flag indicating whether access via localhost should still be allowed
when a server name has been specified and a name based virtual host has been
configured.
