Plugin is incompatible with v2.36 on Ubuntu 16.04

Open diffusae opened this issue 6 years ago • 6 comments

With the lastest KeePass2 version (v2.36) in the repos, the plugin is incompatible on Ubuntu 16.04. I've tried the dlls, also i've installed mono-complete, but there was no was to get it working.

Maybe you could solve the issue?

I have this problem too on debian testing with KeePass versions:

  • 2.28
  • 2.35
  • 2.37

What i'm doing wrong?

Yes, the problem also exists on different distributions. You didn't do something wrong. It's a problem with Http-Connector plugin. As a workaround you can use version 2.36 from the official repos and follow the instruction from the Readme.md:

KeePass 2.36: install packages sudo apt-get install libmono-system-xml-linq4.0-cil libmono-system-data-datasetextensions4.0-cil libmono-system-runtime-serialization4.0-cil mono-mcs

This works until Http-Connector or KeePass2 will crash, than you will get the same error message until logoff or reboot. Maybe also the KeePassXC (GitHub) could solve the problem. Didn't tried it.

There is a port of the Http-Connector Plugin: KeePassHttpX optimized for Mac OS X. Maybe that works?

KeePassHttp

If you only need the KeePassHTTP support, I would recommend you to use KeePassXC. It seems to be a bit less vulnerable way, to use a password manager.
