Cannot validate certificate for Owncloud

Help and Support
1

Hello,

I have configured my Owncloud account in the rclone config, the problem is that the Owcloud server has selfsigned certificate. I get this error message:

~# rclone ls MyOwncloud:
2020/07/22 15:44:40 ERROR : : error listing: couldn't list files: Propfind https://X.X.X.X:8080/owncloud/: x509: cannot validate certificate for X.X.X.X because it doesn't contain any IP SANs
2020/07/22 15:44:40 Failed to ls with 2 errors: last error was: couldn't list files: Propfind https://X.X.X.X:8080/owncloud/: x509: cannot validate certificate for X.X.X.X because it doesn't contain any IP SANs

I use my rclone client in a Debian machine, is it possible to add this certificate in my system? I can not change the Owncloud certificate in the server side.

Thanks for your great help.

Kind regards.

hi,
i found this, with discuses the go lang tls package and a workaround using a flag.

might not be too hard to implement in rclone.

You should be able to use this

  --no-check-certificate   Do not verify the server SSL certificate. Insecure.

Thanks for the reply.

But where could I add this option? --no-check-certificate

This is my configuration:

# cat .config/rclone/rclone.conf
[MyOwncloud]
type = webdav
url = https://X.X.X.X:8080/owncloud/
vendor = owncloud
user = user
pass = pass_salted

Thanks for your great help.

Regards.

https://rclone.org/docs/#no-check-certificate-true-false

there are three ways to this

  1. add the flag to your command
rclone ls MyOwncloud: --no-check-certificate

add this line to the config file
no-check-certificate = true

  1. set the value via an environment variable
    https://rclone.org/docs/#environment-variables
    export RCLONE_NO_CHECK_CERTIFICATE = true
    rclone ls MyOwncloud:

Thanks!

I try the command with the parameter, and have this error:

# rclone ls MyOwncloud: --no-check-certificate
2020/07/23 16:13:05 ERROR : : error listing: couldn't list files: 405 Method Not Allowed
2020/07/23 16:13:05 Failed to ls with 2 errors: last error was: couldn't list files: 405 Method Not Allowed

I am missing something?

Thanks for your help.

try this

rclone lsd MyOwncloud: --no-check-certificate=true -vv --dump responses

and you can search the forum.

You've probably got the url parameter wrong... It looks like this on my owncloud test

You can find what the parameter should be in the owncloud settings I think.

[TestWebdav]
type = webdav
url = https://example.com/remote.php/webdav/
user = XXX
pass = XXX

Thanks!

I add this to the URL and works: remote.php/webdav/

Regards.
