I hade the same, when log said ssl certificates are not found. When I disabled them in my safe network, it worked.

I just ran into this and it was due to a ghost instance of synergy running on the client machine. Once I got rid of it then everything started to work again

In my case, one of the devices had "Enable SSL" (Windows client) and the Linux server did not. (In Change Settings F4). I un-clicked it both-ways since I use it in a private network behind a firewall, and it worked. Presumably it would work if it is on on both devices.

@CreativilyInsane Please try Deskflow or Input Leap as Barrier is no longer in development.

https://github.com/deskflow/deskflow
https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap

If this is still an issue in those projects, we would appreciate a cross-post of this issue.

@DrzwiPercepcji commented on GitHub (Dec 13, 2025):

I was able to make it work by copying the local-fingerprint file from the server to the client and renaming it to trusted-servers. It looks like, for some reason, the client did not create this file. I saw in the logs that the server fingerprint could not be validated. I use Linux as a server and Windows as a client.
