Hey pbek,

I've got an issue until connecting to my owncloud with your windows client:

Connection error message: Unable ti init SSL Context:

Hi @Pisoko ! Thank you for your report!
Did you install OpenSSL? Sadly this is necessary on Windows (it's mentioned in the settings).

[Pisoko]

OpenSSL 1.0.2e (64bit) is installed. (from heiße.de)

[pbek]

Oh, sorry. I totally overread that! I will see if I can reproduce that problem locally...

[Pisoko]

if you need a testaccount on my cloud..let me know.

[Pisoko]

Mayb it's a firewall problem.. do you need other ports then 80/443?

[pbek]

I just installed OpenSSL (Win32 OpenSSL v1.0.2e Light from http://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html) on a Windows 10 box. I let the installer copy the DLLs to the system directory (that's important). After I restarted QOwnNotes I could connect to my https Server.

Are the OpenSSL DLLs in your system directory? In my case that is C:\Windows\SysWOW64, I can see a libssl32.dll there...

Port 80/443 should be enough...
If you give me an account I can test it on your server too...

[pbek]

Now I did the same on a Windows 7 box, again there was a libssl32.dll in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 and I could connect to my ownCloud server via https.

Maybe the "problem" is the 64bit version of OpenSSL? Can you please also try the 32bit version?

[Pisoko]

Ok.. libssl32.dll is in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 but it doesn't work.

Try it yourself pls:

[pbek]

It did work for me under Windows 7.

Server Info

serverVersion: 8.1.4.2
appVersion: 0.4.1

Are the other DLLs also in place? libeay32.dll, libssl32.dll, ssleay32.dll

[Pisoko]

yes of cause :/

[pbek]

Can you please try to copy libeay32.dll, libssl32.dll and ssleay32.dll to your QOwnNotes folder (where the QOwnNotes.exe is). It also worked for me that way when they aren't in the Windows system folder.

[Pisoko]

Oh man.. I am sry.. I simply have to restart windows after that OpenSSL-Installation. Now it works fine. ;) THX!

[pbek]

That's great! I'm glad it now works.
Just for the protocol, so you didn't have to (and didn't have) copy libeay32.dll, libssl32.dll and ssleay32.dll to your QOwnNotes directory?

[Pisoko]

I don't.. they still in C:\Windows\SysWOW64

[pbek]

Ok, great! I think I will include the OpenSSL library in the future, it's too much of a hassle to install it by hand. ownCloud also includes the OpenSSL library with their desktop client.

Thanks a lot for your testing!
