Snakeoil Forums - Repository Error

In this latest update of LMS 8, the following change was made:

PR #267 - HTTPS certificates are now validated when LMS acts as a client. HTTPS connections to plugin repositories are no-longer retried over HTTP when they fail. The old insecure behaviour can optionally be re-enabled, although, instead, we recommend working out why HTTPS is broken in your environment and fixing that if possible.

With this change this error appears in the Plugins section

"https://repos.squeezecommunity.org/extensions.xml - Connect timed out"

Any idea what has to be changes to get rid of this error?

Thank you

ps. Still loving SO, best LMS I've used.

Pls. try uninstall it and then reboot and then reinstall it. Sometimes it helps. I encounter and solve similar problem with Minimserver recently. Good Luck. Smile

What version of LMS are you on now? I'm on 7.9.4 and still don't have any issues AFAIK inside the plugins config tab. Can you do a screenshot?

Don't get the problem here with 7.9.4. The URL (https://repos.squeezecommunity.org/extensions.xml) works fine on my side. Can you run the URL in your web browser and confirm it works? Connection time out suggests network issues, rather than invalid SSL certificates.

Manually added the repo using http instead of https. something in the OS is blocking HTTPS

Which 8.x version of LMS are you using? I'll download that and try it out to see what's happening.

All the repository problems has gone with 18.04.5 Lts for me.
Connect to Snakeoil Os with ssh client and command
do-release-upgrade

Correct. I no longer have the issue with the latest update.

Thank you
