[FX.php List] Yosemite + FM13 Server vs. FX.php

I did a fresh "virgin" install of FMS 13.05 on the new machine. I now have a complete duplicate "DEV" environment with the new FM13 server and a copy of my live website.

This works OK.

I just get a "No Data Received" using just HTTP. If I use HTTPS, the browser (Chrome on Mac) complains that it can't verify the security certificate. When I tell it to access the website anyway, it loads OK. 

So I think I have a security cert problem, for one. Not sure where else to go from there. 

Thanks,
