We are hoping to get a production setup running that will allow us to ensure our raspberrypi4 devices can connect to our server and do some simple protoype testing. I was able to get the demo version working but not the production one. We are intending to use Mender on its own (no kubernetes, no yo…

Hey @TheYoctoJester , thanks for the suggestions. This helped me pinpoint the cause of the issue. The SAN field in my certificate was set to DNS:192.168.2.114 and DNS:*.192.168.2.114 and this was causing issues because these entries were being interpreted as DNS names rather than IP address. My sol…

Hi @G462 , Can you check the logs of mender-authd? That one is the service which handles authentication with the server and provides the connection to mender-updated and mender-connect. Greetz, Josef

Tried resetting everything up and now mender-authd shows the following: Oct 31 20:03:54 client mender-auth[66451]: record_id=52 severity=info time=“2024-Oct-31 20:03:54.550549” name=“Global” msg="Authentication error trying server ‘ http://192.168.2.114 ’: Connection refused: POST http://192.168.2.…

Hi @G462 , some thoughts: I think it should be https://192.168.2.114. is there a firewall on the host, like Ubuntus ufw? can you check API access manually, for example using curl, as documented here? Mender API docs Greetz, Josef

The logs are slightly different using https://192.168.2.114 : Nov 04 08:51:20 client mender-auth[13352]: using interface /sys/class/net/eth0 Nov 04 08:51:20 client mender-auth[2338]: record_id=1040 severity=info time=“2024-Nov-04 08:51:20.323808” name=“Global” msg=“Signing with: /var/lib/mender/me…

Hi @G462 , this is your key: [image] G462: msg=“https: Failed to perform the SSL handshake: certificate verify failed” The Mender Client can’t check the certificate of 192.168.2.114, and hence it rejects the server. As you won’t be able to get LetsEncrypt on a local IP, the correct approach i…

Hi @TheYoctoJester , I’m confident I added the certificate to the device and configured the client to point to it and I’m getting the same SSL error as here: Issue connecting client to open source production server - #6 by G462 . Is there anything else I can check?

My issue is the same as this unresolved post where its setup does not include kubernetes, only difference is I’m using the latest version (3.7.7): [image] TLS Handshake Verification Failure in Mender 3.4 Production Installation General Discussions I’m using Mender 3.4 pro…

Hi @G462 , I’m about 99% sure that there is something off with your certificate setup. Things to watch out for: device RTC time vs. certificate date and expiry certificate file permissions hostname matches For a very brutal test, you can add this to /etc/mender/mender.conf, adhering to JSON synta…
