Couldn't find a place to store the pinned certificate - error #497

Open yerbestpal opened 4 years ago

yerbestpal commented 4 years ago

Prerequisites

Describe the bug

When adding my Proton Mail account to Mail, I am presented with a dialog asking if I would like to store Proton's insecure certificate, and if so, whether to store it temporarily or permanently. After selecting the former, a new dialog explains that it 'couldn't find a place to store the pinned certificate'. When trying again, I cannot access the dialogues and instead, the new account forms shows the following error: Unable to validate

image I am unable to produce all screenshots because I can no longer access the relevant dialogues.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open Mail.
  2. Click on Settings icon.
  3. Select Accounts.
  4. Click the + sign.
  5. In the new dialog, choose Other.
  6. Enter all the correct information as provided by Proton Bridge.
  7. Choose Use IMAP credentials or not (the outcome is the same).

Expected behavior

In an ideal work the account would be successfully added and I would be able to use all functionality.

Hi,

I recently installed elementary OS and I've been hitting this with my self-hosted mail server. The cert is signed by Let's Encrypt, and not expired, but this dialog pops up. Using Geary on Arch with GNOME, I've been able to hit "Always Trust this Certificate" in this window... Screenshot from 2020-12-04 15 39 52 but now when I do that I get this dialog: Screenshot from 2020-12-04 15 42 09

Same issue.

swt83 commented 3 years ago

I read here that this is the fix:

$ mkdir -p ~/.config/pkcs11/modules
$ curl https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-keyring/raw/ff229abca62db366c84dfe58035324f6d8ca6059/pkcs11/rpc-layer/gnome-keyring.module.in > ~/.config/pkcs11/modules/gnome-keyring.module

But while this fixes the cert error, I still can't get ProtonMail to work with this. Also, this fix was posted 2 years ago and this app still hast he same bug!

The code of elementary Mail is undergoing a major rework and will be released on elementary 6 Odin. Anyone capable to test the state of this issue on Odin, so we can take it from there?

This issue persist in the new version.

Hey team - the certificate verification issue when using ProtonMail Bridge in the EOS mail app still persists. Just a bump here
