❔ C# Self Signed certificate with SslStream

My Code:
var listener = new TcpListener(IPAddress.Any, 443); // Port 443 is typically used for HTTPS

listener.Start();

X509Certificate2 serverCertificate = new X509Certificate2("C:\\Users\\pogrammerX\\XXXXXXX\\XXXServer\\XXXServer\\bin\\Debug\\net6.0\\certificate.pfx", "password");

while (true)
{
Console.WriteLine("Waiting for a connection...");
var client = listener.AcceptTcpClient();

// Create an SSL stream using the client's network stream and the server certificate.
var q = client.GetStream();
var sslStream = new SslStream(q);
sslStream.AuthenticateAsServer(serverCertificate, false, System.Security.Authentication.SslProtocols.Tls, true);

Console.WriteLine("Connected!");

byte[] buffer = new byte[client.ReceiveBufferSize];
int bytesRead;

while ((bytesRead = sslStream.Read(buffer, 0, client.ReceiveBufferSize)) > 0)
{
string message = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
Console.WriteLine("Received: " + message);
}

sslStream.Close();
client.Close();
}
var listener = new TcpListener(IPAddress.Any, 443); // Port 443 is typically used for HTTPS

listener.Start();

X509Certificate2 serverCertificate = new X509Certificate2("C:\\Users\\pogrammerX\\XXXXXXX\\XXXServer\\XXXServer\\bin\\Debug\\net6.0\\certificate.pfx", "password");

while (true)
{
Console.WriteLine("Waiting for a connection...");
var client = listener.AcceptTcpClient();

// Create an SSL stream using the client's network stream and the server certificate.
var q = client.GetStream();
var sslStream = new SslStream(q);
sslStream.AuthenticateAsServer(serverCertificate, false, System.Security.Authentication.SslProtocols.Tls, true);

Console.WriteLine("Connected!");

byte[] buffer = new byte[client.ReceiveBufferSize];
int bytesRead;

while ((bytesRead = sslStream.Read(buffer, 0, client.ReceiveBufferSize)) > 0)
{
string message = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
Console.WriteLine("Received: " + message);
}

sslStream.Close();
client.Close();
}
Commands used to generate the self signed certificate:
openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout privatekey.key -out certificate.crt -subj "/C=US/ST=State/L=City/O=Organization/CN=127.0.0.1"
openssl pkcs12 -export -out certificate.pfx -inkey privatekey.key -in certificate.crt -passout pass:password
openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout privatekey.key -out certificate.crt -subj "/C=US/ST=State/L=City/O=Organization/CN=127.0.0.1"
openssl pkcs12 -export -out certificate.pfx -inkey privatekey.key -in certificate.crt -passout pass:password
where this line:
sslStream.AuthenticateAsServer(serverCertificate, false, System.Security.Authentication.SslProtocols.Tls, true);
sslStream.AuthenticateAsServer(serverCertificate, false, System.Security.Authentication.SslProtocols.Tls, true);
throws: System.IO.IOException: 'Cannot determine the frame size or a corrupted frame was received.' After further testing it seems like serverCertificate has some issues, any help is appreciated
