Plugin not working since Crosswalk 19 and later

[schulti]

I have updated my Crosswalk installation in Cordova from 18+ to 19+ and I since then I get this message in logcat:

I/X509Util(23400): Failed to validate the certificate chain, error: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Trust anchor for certification path not found.

When I return to Version 18+, the plugin works as designed.

config.xml:
working:
<preference name="xwalkVersion" value="18+" />
not working:
<preference name="xwalkVersion" value="19+" />

The same situation happened in later versions.

Hi @schulti, did you find any solution for this?

Thank you!

Hi @pcsantana,

Daniel contacted me around christmas via email and said that he will look into that in the next weeks. I did not get an update since then.

I also have to tell that I already removed crosswalk from the specific app... (I would like to integrate it again, as it was improving compatibility for older devices, but I need this specific feature, and since it's not working yet...)

Hi @schulti,
I think the reason this plugin has stopped working is because in newer versions of Cordova (v5 and later) the file used to ignore invalid ssl has changed. See http://ivancevich.me/articles/ignoring-invalid-ssl-certificates-on-cordova-android-ios/.

Considering your information that this plugin only works in xwalk 18, I found a work around after some tests. It's not so elegant, but worked for me:

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-crosswalk-certificate
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview --variable XWALK_VERSION="18+"

If you are using crosswalk lite, this should be ok. Otherwise, when building the project some errors will appear:

/myapp/platforms/android/src/org/crosswalk/engine/XWalkCordovaClientCertRequest.java:55: error: cannot find symbol return request.getKeyTypes(); ^ symbol: method getKeyTypes() location: variable request of type ClientCertRequest /myapp/platforms/android/src/org/crosswalk/engine/XWalkCordovaClientCertRequest.java:70: error: cannot find symbol return request.getPrincipals();

So, try to edit the class mentioned
(../platforms/android/src/org/crosswalk/engine/XWalkCordovaClientCertRequest.java) returning null instead request.getKeyTypes() and request.getPrincipals().

I'm using cordova 6.4.1 and cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview v2.3.0.

Best regards!

My apologies for lack of communication on this. I'm not sure when I'll get time to roll out a proper fix.

Pull requests are welcome :)

Any news on this issue? I'm still struggling with it and can't find any working solution

Hi, is this project dead? Can someone provide a solution?

[eithed]

I've had the same issue - removing standard, and installing lite version solved it for me (although with lite version WebGL stopped working).

Solution provided by @pcsantana still works

I did the changes related to return null for getPrincipals(), getKeyTypes() methods.
Its not working with my wifi. But its working with mobile service providers. Can anyone tell what could be the prob ? I am getting this error while playing youtube video from my app.
