Activesync - certificate failure

[odie]

Hello,

I’ve been trying to get activesync working on my iOS devices. I followed the instructions here: link text

However, I get an authentication error and when viewing the certificate, I only get the self signed stock Cloudron certificate, not the domain certificate SOGo is registered with.

Anyone with any suggestions?

Thank you!

ActiveSync and SOGo run on the same domain and are served by the same web server (and thus cert configuration). How is it possible that both are different?

My theory is that @odie is using a wildcard dns entry and therefore the phone is trying autodiscover.domain.com. which reaches Cloudron (because of the wildcard), but Cloudron has no certificate for it.

For better troubleshooting knowledge about the domains and email adresses used during the account creation would be necessary.

Yes, I use wildcard dns. My DNS provider’s API isn’t available on Cloudron, so I have to use the wildcard option.

@odie that leaves two options in my opinion:

1. get a better dns provider that is supported by Cloudron
2. add autodiscover.the-domain-you-use-for-your.email as an alias to the Sogo app

@fbartels Thank you very much! It’s great to understand why things don’t work as expected!

I would have switched dns provider a long time ago if it wasn’t for the fact that they are basically the only provider that offers domains from my country (and for a reasonable price).

I’ll try autodiscover and if that doesn’t work, I’ll try a secondary domain name for my email.
