Hi, i have tried creating the cert with the key in the same file and restarting barrier(not reloading, closing the process and reopening),
but no luck thereMy steps:
Exit barrier (quit from the task bar)
and open it back.
It should work flawlessly
A workaround.This is far from being the best solution, but using the flatpak solves this issue and makes it so you do not have to create a certificate.Why is this not the best solution? installing barrier as a flatpak, make it not look on most desktop enviroments, Tho it looks good to me in kde plasma.@coryschwartz commented on GitHub (Feb 14, 2022):
confirmed -- I also had to generate certificates manually with openssl. Without this, barrier would fail to get past the "barrier is starting" phase. Same errors as described when running barrierc.
@herpiphil commented on GitHub (Mar 13, 2022):
cd ~/.local/share/barrier/SSL
openssl genpkey -algorithm RSA -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_bits:4096 -out Barrier.cert
openssl req -key Barrier.cert -x509 -new -out Barrier.pem
cat Barrier.cert >> Barrier.pem
Could someone who understands this please explain how and where I enter this?

Anywhere, note that the first command moves you to a folder using an absolute path
@janvlug commented on GitHub (May 30, 2022):
I confirm that on Fedora 36 I also manually had to create the certificate.
@joaociocca commented on GitHub (Jul 24, 2024):
I tried this, and remember that it worked before... but now, I'm getting a different error after manually generating the certificates:
or just disable the whole damn SSL that only gives headaches - secure your network instead =p
