Unless I’m missing some setting I have to enable on our end, the official app won’t connect to

It works with Meta just fine. In fact I’m posting from it now…

Not sure, this is a question for @sam.

Maybe missing protocol and https redirect is not in place

Could you explain in a bit more detail (for this self-taught imposter-sysadmin!)
Our https setup predates Let’s Encrypt, but I remember following a guide here on meta line by line.

I thought Official App worked only with Hosted sites. Am I wrong, or do I misunderstand his question?

try adding `https://` before, does it work? are you updated to latest? my guess is that there are issues with the http redirect.

It works fine with all discourse site provided they are running latest, but you get no push notifications.

I see. But you can still get mobile notifications with [discourse-push-notifications plugin](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-push-notifications/commits/master), just not through the App, right?

Yeah, but clicking on the notification will open Chrome, not the app.
And that is Android only.

I have the same issue with `talk.libreho.st`. I have successfully installed in the app 10 Discourse instances on TLDs ranging from `.org` to `.wiki` and `.network`, but this one fails.
- ✅ responds to port 80 with 301 redirect to port 443
- ✅ has a valid SSL certificate
- ✅ no error logged on the web server
Checked with:
- `curl -I -v http://talk.libreho.st/`
- `curl -I -v https://talk.libreho.st/`
Tried both without and with the scheme.

Edit: I’m running version 1.2.1, will upgrade to 1.3.0 first…

Thanks @dax. I upgraded to 1.3.0, and it still fails. I have no idea why. Other domains work fine.

`talk.libreho.st` Works for me too on iOS, which suggests it’s your test device.

Are you using a Samsung phone running Android 7 ?

> Hello Gerhard, The problem is solved. After looking at the SSLLabs results again i noticed a difference between the Android 7.0 handhake. Our site gave ECDH secp384r1 while your site gave ECDH secp256r1. After some googling i landed on the following site: [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39133437/sslhandshakeexception-handshake-failed-on-android-n-7-0](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39133437/sslhandshakeexception-handshake-failed-on-android-n-7-0) So there seems to be a bug in Android 7.0. I now changed the line “ssl\_ecdh\_curve secp384r1” to “ssl\_ecdh\_curve prime256v1” in “web.ssl.temp…

Yes, it was a Samsung phone with Android 7.

Right, we know it was in your case, since you helpfully reported it – we were asking @hellekin if the same thing applies to him. Sorry to bug you 😛

I’m using a non-rooted Android 7.0 with MicroG installed and no Gaggle account. I’m trying to upgrade everything, test with various things enabled or disabled. After resetting all apps and rebooting, I found that there’s one system app remaining disabled and that is not possible to enable: “Android System WebView”. After some research I have managed to update it by disabling Chrome, then updated it, and re-enabled Chrome. I tried to update Chrome from 63 to 73, but the system tells me I must use “root or privileged install”. Then I updated everything, re-enabled all Gaggle apps and Discourse app. Still no luck. This is very strange.

That sounds very _very_ hard to support.

I cannot see any reason why `.st` would fail only on my device. If you know of another Discourse instance on this TLD, I’d be happy to test that as well.

Did you read the link from @falco above? It’s unlikely to be the domain and more likely to be the specific ecdh handshake.
