selenium ERRORssl_client_socket_implcc980 handshake failed; returned -1 SSL error code 1 net_error -101

This error message suggests that there was a failure during the SSL handshake process when using Selenium. The SSL handshake is responsible for establishing a secure connection between the client (Selenium) and the server.

The error code -1 indicates a general error during the handshake, while the SSL error code 1 suggests an unspecified error. The net_error -101 indicates a connection reset.

Possible causes for this error include:

1. SSL certificate issues: The server's SSL certificate might be invalid, expired, or self-signed. In this case, you may need to configure Selenium to ignore SSL certificate validation or provide a valid certificate.

2. Proxy or firewall: If you're using a proxy or firewall, it might be interfering with the SSL connection. You can try disabling the proxy/firewall or configuring Selenium to work with it.

3. Outdated browser or WebDriver: Make sure you are using the latest version of the browser and the corresponding WebDriver. Outdated versions may have compatibility issues with SSL.

4. Network connectivity problems: Check your internet connection to ensure there are no network issues interrupting the SSL handshake.

To troubleshoot this error, you can try the following steps:

1. Update Selenium, browser, and WebDriver to the latest versions.
2. Disable any proxies or firewalls temporarily and see if the error persists.
3. Check if the SSL certificate on the server is valid and try configuring Selenium accordingly.
4. Verify your network connectivity to ensure there are no interruptions.
5. If none of the above steps work, you can try using a different browser or WebDriver to see if the issue is specific to a particular combination.

If the error still persists, you may need to provide more details about your specific setup and code to get further assistance
