  • Hi, Karim and Paul, and welcome to the UTM Community!

    With error="Received invalid request from client" in the log line, you will need to skip the Proxy for WhatsApp.  Also, you might try a Google on:

  • Correct. Whatsapp MUST be excluded from the proxy (or at least from HTTPS scanning).
