Custom SSL Certificate causing restreamer to crash

[x390]

Restreamer crashes when attempting to use a custom ssl certificate from acme.sh.

What I have tried to do to fix the issue:

1. Setting host.name to my domain name
2. setting host.auto to false
3. Checking if the permissions are correct
4. Using the openssl command from the guide in core repo

@x390 Should be fixed in dev image. Please try:
datarhei/restreamer:dev

Thx.

@x390 does it work?

Hey @jstabenow,

I've had the same issue and I can luckily report that RTMPS is working now with a custom certificate as intended using the dev release. The server doesn't crash on startup anymore.

Thank you for the fix. 😄

A quick follow-up:

RTMPS is functional (Tested with OBS). However, the settings menu for rtmp is now bugged due to it saying "RTMPS server can only be enabled if TLS is enabled" when I try to save a new token, etc. I also can't edit the RTMPS or HTTPS port from the web ui. I think this is happening because "Let's Encrypt certification" is turned off. For now the workaround is to directly edit the config.json.
