the server certificate could not be validated.

[arielenter]

When trying to connect I get the following message:

"Can't connect to server.
The server certificate could not be validated."

Kontalk Desktop version: KontalkDesktop-3.1.2
Operating System: GNU/Linux Trisquel

I'm sending the log.

It seems to be similar to this other issue: #57

Should I wait or should I disable server SSL checking for now?

Thank you.

Probable lack of support for Let's Encrypt certificates on your system. @abika didn't we include Let's Encrypt certificates in our own trust store?

I'm using Trisquel 7.0 LTS (Belenos) which is base on Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty), which is a little old.

I'm going to try a usb live boot to see if a fresh install wouldn't have this problem.

If support is not present in my distro, is there a way I could install some how Let's Encrypt? I found this but it seems it's only on the server side https://poweruphosting.com/blog/install-letsencrypt-ubuntu/

Thank you.

mhh, I can connect just fine. But maybe I really missed updating the trust-store do be independent from the system certificates. Have to check...
