A few months ago I started getting complaints from dozens of users about getting errors when connecting to my site. When I look into the error.log of nginx I see daily SSL errors:
I have no idea what could cause this issue since 99% of users are getting through and I can't seem to replicate it myself. One user said that switching to a VPN fixed the issue for him. Other posts on stackoverflow suggested that this occurs with malicious requests from the same ip but that is not the case here.
Does anyone know a fix to this?
(I have not made any changes to this server/config in months.)
The webserver is running on Ubuntu 20.10
