Droopy – How to Setup https?

[Member tjhSM]

I was wondering if anyone ever got droopy working with https? Trying to use it crashes droopy on startup: the server terminal flashes on and off – no error message.

I generated a self signed .pem (and .key) certificate using openssl as in step 2 in https://wiki.debian.org/Self-Signed_Certificate, I am running droopy on python3 and also have python3-openssl installed (for the import ssl-using python code). Of course I also set PEMFILE= in the droopy.conf file to the generated *.pem file.

I even tried updating the allowable ssl ciphers to those suggested at a link in the droopy python code to stay current with current openssl.

Droopy works fine in http mode as well.

Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.

So I got a little farther: by concatenating the .key onto the .pem file (i.e. the certificate and private key are together), that allows droopy to run. It works fine (other than the expected browser complaints about the self-signed certificate) for downloading files from the server, but when I try to upload files it says “There has been a problem! Retry”.

Also, has anyone tried droopy with a CA certificate (so browsers like the https)?
