This error happens even with the latest nodejs version if you're using a ssl certificate whose domain cannot be resolved by your dns.

Let's say your SSL certificate is issued to www.your-domain.com make sure a dns lookup can resolve this domain.

Simply add your domain to your /etc/hosts file
127.0.0.1 www.your-domain.com

If your using a wildcard certificate *.your-domain.com you can simply add this domain to your /etc/hosts file:

127.0.0.1 *.your-domain.com
