ChatSecure
File Transfer Not working - OMEMO
After ChatSecure version 4.1 was pushed through the app store my images cannot will send.
I see that it is now trying to send via OMEMO vs. OTR. I don't know what is wrong. I get either an error stating an SSL error occurred where an secure connection cannot be established or I get Chatsecure filetransfererror error 3.
I am using prosody on the server side. Are there specific modules that are required to support this besides HTTP_upload?
Are you using https for file transfer? If so, do you have a self signed cert?
I am using letsencrypt for the server cert. Do I need a cert for the http upload domain? I have the http_upload setup in my prosody component section of my config. Do I need https somewhere, like as a module?
I have confirmed I am using http_load using https. I can see it loading when I restart. Now the error I get is solely the Chatsecure filetransfererror error 3 which I don't know where to start with.
Apologies, I thought I added "user friendly" error messages, they must not be showing up. One possibility is that the TLS version is too low and iOS is rejecting the connection. You should make sure your Prosody (0.9.12) and OpenSSL (1.1.0f) versions are the latest (beyond the Debian version).
@chrisballinger When I send a file from CS on iOS to Conversations on Android, HTTP upload works fine. When I do the other way round, without OMEMO I just see s link in CS and with OMEMO I just see an empty message. I am on stable 4.1.0.
Our link detection code isn't ideal for https:// scheme, and will require a
"filename" like http://example.com/file.jpg, or an image/video/audio mime
type. If you are using http:// scheme it will never show a preview because
of Apple's ATS. When using OMEMO it shouldn't be empty or blank... possibly
an unsupported format or too large?

@chrisballinger The format is jpg, so it should be supported.

I was able to get this to work. I realized there were some prosody modules I was missing.
I'm having the same issue, what Prosody modules were you missing, would love to get this to work.
@mimi89999 thanks, I have both of them installed but it's still not working, do you need one or the other not both, is that my problem
@hansenandrew Have you configured Apache or Nginx for receiving and sending files? Did you install the provided PHP script?
@mimi89999 I have edited the share.php file and installed it into a web directory, I haven't done any configurations to Apache, my wife gets the photos on her android using conversation app
@hansenandrew So it works... Be sure to properly secure it by using a very strong, randomly generated password (mine is ~30 chars) in share.php and Prosody conf, putting the storage directory outside of the webroot and setting good permissions.
@mimi89999 Sorry still not working on my iPhone, what configurations do I need to do on Apache
@mimi89999 Yes I have done both the settings within share.php and withing the prosody config file
@hansenandrew It is a bit off topic here. Best place to get support with Prosody is the support MUC: [email protected]
@hansenandrew This isn't the place to discuss Prosody configuration issues, please only post bugs related to the ChatSecure client itself. For example, if you also can't get it to work when using Conversations for Android, chances are it's a server problem and you should be looking elsewhere.
@mimi89999 Thanks for nudging this back on topic
@chrisballinger Did you find out why could images not display in ChatSecure like in https://github.com/ChatSecure/ChatSecure-iOS/issues/810#issuecomment-313469521? Is there anything I could do to help finding out without having MacOS X with XCode?
Other people are seeing this from images sent via Conversations so I believe there is a recent(?) crypto compatibility issue.
I'm recently receiving ChatSecureCore.FileTransferError 3 when sending images. It used to work fine (iPhone 6 with latest iOS). I also have the problem with pictures being links despite having a .jpg file format.
@chrisballinger Any news on this? I still can't see OMEMO encrypted images.
Hm..
- "Plaintext Only" mode unencrypted transfer works fine?
- OMEMO text chat works?
- Other side is Conversations or ChatSecure?
I am using ejabbered server. Following is my findings...
Android : Conversations iOS : ChatSecure-iOS
Unencrypted mode of file transfer works in all the scenarios ( iPhone <--> iPhone, iPhone <--> Android ) OMEMO Encrypted mode of file transfer works in the scenarios ( iPhone <--> iPhone, iPhone --> Android ). But in Android --> iPhone not works.
I found Aes Gcm used for file's encryption and decryption. Is this make any problem with this ?
Please help me...
