JSON.parse errors in reittiopas.js

[tpikonen]

Reverse geocoding, itinerary finding etc. do not work with HSL reittiopas data. I'm getting this kind of log messages:

[W] unknown:90 - file:///usr/share/harbour-jollaopas/qml/js/reittiopas.js:90: JSON.parse: Parse error
[W] unknown:57 - file:///usr/share/harbour-jollaopas/qml/js/reittiopas.js:57: JSON.parse: Parse error
[W] unknown:151 - file:///usr/share/harbour-jollaopas/qml/js/reittiopas.js:151: JSON.parse: Parse error

I was getting the same error but now I finally noticed that switching from HTTPS to HTTP seems to fix the problem. Of course, it is not an ideal solution. I guess it has something to with TLS versions or parameters since fetching the same URL with curl on the device works just fine. I have not investigated further.

A temporary fix below:

Thanks, I can confirm that using http in stead of https makes the parse errors go away.

I tested and checked this one. It seems that plain http is not supported anymore by Digitransit API. I hope that Sailfish OS SSL certificates are updated by Jolla so this workaround is unnecessary.
