TLS initialization failed - Appimage on Debian 11

[canonex]

Hi,
the Kemai-0.7.1-x86_64.AppImage on Debian 11 shows me, for multiple instances of Kimai, on different servers:
Error on request [version]: TLS initialization failed
when testing the connection.

The server ssl certificate is valid and is not self signed.

Thank you,
Riccardo

Same error here with the same version.

You got this error only with 0.7.1 and not with 0.7.0 or 0.6 ?

[canonex]

I receive the same using 0.7.0.
With 0.6 the error is similar:
Error on request [version]: SSL handshake failed

With this specific domain I'm using Let's Encrypt: browsers correctly shows the encrypted connection.

Thank you,
Riccardo

It's not a certificate problem. The connection isn't opened at all.

qt.network.ssl: No TLS backend is available
qt.network.ssl: No functional TLS backend was found
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket::connectToHostEncrypted: TLS initialization failed

[2022-11-18 20:59:03.606] [kemai] [error] Client error: Error on request [users/me]: TLS initialization failed

is quite clear about it.

This seems like a rather common problem on Debian. This happened a long time ago in Calibre, too, so looking there for a patch might help.

A continuous build is ready. Can be fetched at https://github.com/AlexandrePTJ/kemai/releases/tag/Continuous
Please tell me if this bug is fixed. Thanks.

working. Would you mind summarizing the trick? This seems to be happening in a lot of AppImages that have not been compiled on Debian.

[canonex]

I still have the same problem using Kemai-0.8.0-x86_64.AppImage from continuous on Debian bookworm/sid...
Thank you,

Qt6 split several things in plugins, TLS is part of it. So in the appimage creation process, it is now necessary to add a requirement on tls plugin.

Is it fixed on stable ?

[canonex]

Is it fixed on stable ?

Sorry I didn't understand, is there a stable after 0.7.1?
Where can I find it?

...or do you mean Debian stable? I can't try this on the fly.

Thank you,
Riccardo

Bonjour !
_Il n'y a Kemai qui m'aille !!! Hope i can use it ! _
But ... i still have the same problem using Kemai-0.8.0-x86_64.AppImage on Ubuntu Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon . I tried to connect to selfhosted Kimai (yunohost )

[canonex]

I confirm the same problem still exist using Appimage in Debian 12 bookworm (testing) and in Ubuntu 22.04.

Thank you,
Riccardo

Last release looks to works with ubuntu 22, but not on debian 11...
