hunteke Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 Hello Plastic Community, New user of PlasticSCM here, but not new to DVCS. I'm attempting to install and use PlasticSCM for the first time on this Linux machine, but I'm encountering a client crash. The short description: Plastic ($ plastic) crashes if I attempt to setup an SSL connection. I've attached the command line output form the crash. Help, please. The background: I'm running Ubuntu 14.10. I've installed the Linux client per the Plastic instructions. Checking ps waux, the plasticd process is running. I used scm.[ourserver].com:8088 I checked the "Use encryption (SSL)" checkbox I clicked the "Connect" button At this point, the process pops up a new window, then crashes before drawing anything in it. The title of this popup window is "Hostname mismatch in secure connection". I'm new to Plastic, but very well versed in Linux, administration, and DVCS in general, so any further information I can provide, or suggestions for how to fix this issue would be much appreciated. Thanks! Kevin crash_info.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calbzam Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Hi, We´ve recently modified some windows of the client configurator and it seems that the from to accept the certificate is not properly being handled. We have created a task to fix it asap. Anyway, you could manually edit the "client.conf" file to poin to the scm.[ourserver].com:8088 server. After thatm if you run: cm lrep ssl://serverName:8088 You should be able to accept the certificate. Regards, Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunteke Posted January 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Hi Carlos, Thank you. I've manually edited it and am now working with our contractor to fix the incorrect SSL certificate that highlighted this issue. Also, for anyone else running across this thread, note that the GUI is not the Only Way. As intimated by calbazm's reference to cm, Plastic has apparently also implemented some CLI tools. In this instance, these would have been helpful to know of 24 hours ago: clconfigureclient cm The usual --help argument will get you started. Thanks, Kevin P.S. As a side note, and from the department of "mutating bug reports", it would be nice if this forum supported an inline code style, rather than me merely changing the font. And if it does, then ignore me. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunteke Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 For those reading this after, the "fix" was to use the new native client. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manu Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Long live to the native GUIs! Thank you Kevin for returning to us with the resolution, much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
