wp 5.7 update: A critical problem connecting your website via https occured

  • Hi
    After upgrading to wp 5.7, a website that has protected area via htaccess enabled, returns a critical problem when running the health check:
    A problem occured connecting your website with https.
    Suprisingly the website works inspite of the critical error.
    When i disable the protection in htaccess the problem vanishes.
    This behaviour is new since 5.7. Do have any information about this or has anyone else encountered the same.
    Thanks for your feedback.
    regards
    timholz

    What is this protected area via htaccess enabled?

    More info/details you provide more chances some volunteer with that experience may chime in.
