Instead of the secure connection, an normal  websocket
connection (ws instead of wss)  will be tried and fails.
This can be identified as there is an extra blank before the
closing bracket of the configuration, but that is not easy to
spot.
Instead of the secure connection, an normla websocket connection
will be tried and fails.
