Description

I posted this some days ago here: [https://github.com/apache/couchdb/discussions/3049](https://github.com/apache/couchdb/discussions/3049)

## Description
After enabling SSL accordingly to the [manual](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=48203146) it doesn't works in Chrome and Safari.
It works fine in CouchDB 2.3.1 for MAC after downloading and running it from the downloads folder.

## Steps to Reproduce

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=48203146

## Expected Behaviour

Chrome and Safari should warn about untrusted certificates or shown any other SSL related error.

## Your Environment

CouchDB 3.1.0
macOS Catalina 10.15.5
Chrome 84.0.4147.89 (Build oficial) (64 bits)
Safari 13.1.1
Firefox 40.0.2
OpenSSL version LibreSSL 2.8.3
curl 7.64.1

Research direction

Start with the linked discussion 3049 and SSL manual, then reproduce the HTTPS request using CouchDB 3.1.0 on the listed macOS environment in Chrome and Safari. Compare the behavior with CouchDB 2.3.1 and Firefox; done means the browser reports an SSL certificate-related error instead of ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED.
