Web view - Data NOT visible in IE-10 but IS visible in IE-8

Hi,

I am attempting to get back in web development and hit snag that cannot get beyond. Am using very simple URL to open a view on the web (see below). I do sign in. The data is visible in an ‘older’ browser, but not in the ‘new’ browser IE 10.

Why would this happen or is there some settings I should check?

Thanks for any help.

Thanks to Karl-Henry and Stan for your inputs. It did help to explain about the protocols.

Bottom line - content was not being displayed in the view because IE-10 no longer supports the older protocols. But it does allow changing the settings to a more “compatible” format so the data can be seen. This is done by clicking the icon next to the “refresh” arrow that looks like a ripped page. Will have to make users of the data aware of this screen trick, so not a perfect solution. But it works in this scenario.

It is usually a bad idea to have users do things like that, especially when it is security related.

You really should update yoru servers to a current version that support the current security protocols.

I am getting a TLS error when going to that URL:

"This page can’t be displayed

Turn on TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and TLS 1.2 in Advanced settings and try connecting to https://mail11.solaerotech.com again. If this error persists, contact your site administrator."

Is that what you are getting too?

Or do you mean that you can see the view but no content when you say “data is not visible”?

Please be more specific.

That’s almost certainly it; TLS 1.1 happened after Domino 7 was released, and TLS 1.2 came after Domino 8. If new browsers have dropped default support for older security protocols (because they’re not considered particularly secure anymore), then you’ll either have to: (1) ask your users to enable the old protocols; (2) go without HTTPS; or (3) upgrade the server to a Domino version that supports current protocols (that would be Domino 9 with a fix pack at the earliest).
