@Igi54 Sorry to hijack your question, but I do have a question regarding your wss setup.
From the client to connect to the server are you using wss://localhost/
or wss://an_ip_adress/
?
On my side, it works only with wss://localhost/
, soon as I try to use an IP address, I have a certificate error. I am asking because I am really banging my head since a couple of days to this problem. For my certificate, I used x509
with the extension config containing the ip address that should be accessible.
subjectAltName = @alt_names
[alt_names]
DNS.1 = localhost
IP.1 = 192.168.230.138
Regarding your question, I won't help that much, but on my side on windows, my IXWebSocket client returns
Connection error : Unable to connect to localhost on port 8080, error : Connect error : No error
when I close my javascript websocket server.
@Igi54 could you provide how you create key etc and the code you are using ?
@flagarde , @peterphonic : I use an IP address. I generated the certificates by the script attached to this library, then I used the trusted certificates. I used the same files on server and on clients. Settings on the server:
tlsOptions.tls = true;
tlsOptions.certFile = "/var/wsCerts/cert.pem";
tlsOptions.keyFile = "/var/wsCerts/key.pem";
tlsOptions.caFile = "/var/wsCerts/ca.pem";
server.setTLSOptions(tlsOptions);
and on the client:
ix::SocketTLSOptions tlsOptions;
tlsOptions.tls = true;
tlsOptions.certFile = "/var/wsCerts/cert.pem";
tlsOptions.keyFile = "/var/wsCerts/key.pem";
tlsOptions.caFile = "NONE";
webSocket.setTLSOptions(tlsOptions);
In my case I use both(clients and server) as inner Linux services without in touch with user, so I do not need any "certification authority". I need only to have safe transfer between clients and server.
Hello, I use IXWebSocket 11.4.3. for both - clients and a server. When I use unsecured connection (ws:) everything works perfectly- when I turn off the server, a clients notice it and say "unable to connect.." when I turn on the server the clients connect again automaticaly. But if I use TLS (wss:) with all needed certificates, I can connect clients to server, I can send messages, but the detection if the server is connected fails. It means when I turn off the server clients say nothing and when ping message should be sent from a client, the client crashes. I use Linux for both - clients and server. Thank you in advance for any help.
