OSStatus error -9807 when using self-signed SSL

[prune998]

It seems Limechat behaviour changed in 2.45.
I used to connect to a ZNC proxy which is using a self-signed SSL certificate. It's not working anymore after the upgrade.

I tried re-generating the SSL cert (using cfssl) to comply with latest SSL requirements from OSX. I also tried using Xchat, which works.
Xchat does have an option to allow self-signed (untrusted) SSL certs... but I can't find this option on Limechat.

I imported the remote CA and trusted it: fail
I imported the remote intermediate-CA and trusted it: fail

I had to import the server certificate and trust it to have SSL working again.

I tried adding sslCertificateVerification=NO to the plist with no success...

When you say "I had to import the server certificate and trust it to have SSL working again." how did you do that? I have the same issue.

Ok, so it looks like it is sufficient to point Safari to https://(your znc server):(your znc port)/ and visit the site and instruct it to trust the server cert. This will place the certificate into the MacOS keychain (verified in the Keychain Access app) as trusted. And Limechat 2.4.5 will work again.

That's good news, but Limechat should work with self-signed out of the box (at is was before)

Well it's not working for me. I'm getting this error as of today too. Safari accepts it no problem, but LimeChat does not.

This is fixed by updating to version 2.46 which is now the latest version in the app store it appears. There's now a checkbox to enable/disable certificate validation under server properties.

Downloaded. Working.
