EteSync Groupware Resource in Kontact does not work with self-signed certificates

[ioogithub]

I have the following setup:

Server

• Server image: https://github.com/victor-rds/docker-etebase
• Server is behind an apache reverse proxy

Clients:

• Client 1: Web browser
• Client 2: Android etesync app
• Client 3; Kontact EteSync Groupware Respurce

Observations:

1. Running http://localhost:port in a browser:
   It works

2. Running https://sub.domain.com:port thought the reverse proxy in a browser:
   It works

3. In the etesync app https://sub.domain.com:port

EteSync: Connection security
EyeSync has encountered an unknown certificate. Do you want to trust it?
Clicking: I have manually verified the whole fingerprint Accept.

Client syncs. This works.

4a. In Kontact, adding http://localhost:port as an EteSync Groupware Resource
Client syncs. This works.

4b. In Kontact, adding https://sub.domain.com:port as an EteSync Groupware Resource
Could not connect to the server. Please ensure that the server URL is correct.

So it appears that etesync does not work with Kontact if the server is using a custom certificate. There is no prompt to accept the self-signed certificate it just throws a URL error.

Would it be possible to adding a setting allowing for a custom or self-signed cert using the EteSync Kontact plugin?

Hello,

it's more a problem related to the "Kontact EteSync Groupware Ressource" software than an EteSync server issue, so you should contact the KDE team about this bug.
