SSL Certificate Validation Error

[Marek Gaffke]

Hi there,

encryption is must have to protect my credentials.

I use my own installation of owncloud version 4 and foldersync is my
favourite app to push my pictures and videos taken on my android phone
to my pprivate cloud.

Now that i made my cloud webserver using a trusted certificate i
activated the ssl conenction in foldersync, which leads to the
following error:

java.security.cert CertPathValidatorException: trust anchor for
certification path not found.

FYI - other apps like WebDAV navigator are working flawlessly with
ssl.

Ideas?

Have you enabled self-signed certificates on account screen?

Even though your server might not be self-signed, for it to work on normal conditions, to issuer of the certificate you are using, must have a root certificate known by Android. But this is really things I know very little about to be honest.

HI,

problem is solved. I can now connect without the option selfsigned enabled. There was a configuration error in the apache webserver, and so the certificate chain was not complete.

Works now like a charm.
