Mac client sync error

Hi, I installed on our first new Macbook the Client for Mac 7.0.5. Installation was easy, I can login and see all the folders. I tried to sync one folder to the Mac and get the error: Failed to establish secure connection. Please check server SSL certificate.Its working on our Windows Clients without any problems. I checked the SSL certification an can’t find any problems. Any idea?

Welcome to the Seafile Community Forum!

What kind of a SSL-certificate do you use? A self-signed one? If yes, disable SSL-verification in the client’s settings.

It works GREAT 1000 thx

It is a bad solution to disable SSL verification, though.

Agreed, but it’s the only solution with self-signed certificates. Tom992 didn’t say what kind of a certificate he uses.

I have the same issue on my Mac.

However, we do not use a self signed certificate but rather one which is signed by our own root CA. That CAs certificated is imported in to my macOS keychain and set to being trusted. I can access for example Websites identified with certificates signed by this CA with Google Chrome or Safari without getting a security notice.

Does Seafile use it’s own set of trusted root CAs?

I use the Seafile client 7.0.8.

I know this is an old topic but it recently reared its head for me. long time user of Seafile and recently renewed certificate, after which only the Mac clients started saying certificate is no good.
