Geolocation - "Your current location is not available."

I am running GVH 2.6.1 with the Geolocation options available on a Toughpad with Windows 10.  With IE 11 and Cellular Data I recieve an error message that says: 'There was an error in geolocation.  Your current location is not available.'  My phone is on the same cell network and receives four out of five bars...so, reception is good.  I get this message when I connect to ethernet as well.

 

Is anyone else using Geolocation and having similar issues?

  Hi Dan,

   

  Is your site HTTP, or HTTPS?  Google Chrome recently added a requirement that forced any service that wanted your location to be requested over HTTPS:

  It's possible that IE in Windows 10 may be requiring the same thing now.  I did some testing the other day with iOS 10, and it looks like this is going to be a requirement there too (although further testing on that is needed).

   

  I hope this helps point you in the right direction!

   

  Thanks,

   

  Danny

  OK so it appears that both Safari and Chrome require HTTPS (SSL) for geolocation to work.  I'm working with our IT and they are asking what kind of SSL certificate i need.  Can anyone provide any info?
