problems with data update

[nicopop75]

Hello, I would like to report that with the new version 23.2 I can no longer download the updated data of comets, meteor showers, pulsars and quasars.
The download only works with satellites and Van Buitenen comets, but not with MPC files.
Once the update has been launched, I allow up to half an hour to pass, but the progress bar remains stationary at zero.

Also in the surveys function I can download the deep sky data but not the solar system data.

I am using a Windows 8.1 PC with an Intel 3.6 gh processor.
I enclose the config.ini and last run log files

Has the update procedure changed ? Has anyone else experienced these problems ? Or are there problems on the sites ?

Thank you for your attention.

The log contains the following suspicious lines:

qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket::connectToHostEncrypted: TLS initialization failed
[Exoplanets] Download error: While trying to access "https://www.stellarium.org/json/exoplanets.json" the following error occurred: "TLS initialization failed"

[Exoplanets] Already updating...  will not start again until current update is complete.

Not sure why TLS initialization could fail.

On my Ubuntu 20.04 machine Exoplanets update successfully, but Satellites emit another error:

Also, the log has a strange chain of 176 zero characters in this part:

LandscapeMgr: Clearing cache of 0 landscapes totalling about  0 MB.

This may hint at memory corruption.

Not sure why TLS initialization could fail.

OpenSSL 3 can be too new for Windows 8.

On my Ubuntu 20.04 machine Exoplanets update successfully, but Satellites emit another error

celestrak.org is outdated now… please reset the default list of TLE sources

[alex-w]

Please replace libssl-3-x64.dll and libcrypto-3-x64.dll files by files from attached archive and try update the data again

OpenSSL.zip

Great! It's working now.
Thank you very much
What was the problem?

[gzotti]

Running an obsolete OS like Windows 8.* is a problem...
