OpenVPN > OpenSSL: error:0A00018E:SSL routines::ca md too weak

Fresh Xubuntu 22.04 system. Connecting with wifi(6) atm. On windows i have no problems.
Tried experimental version of eddie and older verssion but got same results. System build : aorus ultra x570, 5600x, nvidia rtx 2060, nvme m.2 hdd
Tried turning on/off network stack drivers from bios, no change. Forgot default option for it.

ps: besides the standard .deb builds for eddie-ui i tried and got this error, some of the rest like appimage or portable i got shared library errors or libraries missing.

Renew the key pair you intend to use with Eddie (or renew them all to be on the safe side for the future) in the client area, then restart Eddie and try again. The "problem" is that SHA1 is considered a weak digest in OpenSSL 3. Even if new and renewed client certificates have been signed with SHA512 for years now, the CA cert from AirVPN was still SHA1-signed. This threw the error for users of Schwabe's OpenVPN for Android and throws it for you now, too: If in a given certificate chain there is a cert signed with a weak digest, OpenSSL errors out.

Ok, deleted (appreciated) and new device installed with new keys installed.
Created some ovpn configs, couldn't import to eddie.
Eddie shutdown, re-run, and its working!
I hope when i login to windows it will also keep working without having to use those files ? (dual boot, win11+fresh ubuntu)
We'll see

Those are not meant for Eddie, they're meant for all other not-from-AirVPN clients.

If you're using Eddie on both Windows and Ubuntu, yes, it's all automatic.

It would appear that this issue is now affecting the built-in configs for eddie-ui. I can't connect to any server. Here's a recent log:

[old log is old]

If we ask *very* nicely, can we please get an update at least to the eddie-ui-git aur page? 🥺

EDIT: hey guys, I'm sorry I didn't more thoroughly check @OpenSourcerer 's post above for more info. Turns out I myself had a "depreciated" key cert in my device profile (I've never been in this section of the site before), so I deleted it and created a new item and that apparently made a functional sha-512 key which I now can connect with. I suspect a recent openssl update on my end is now enforcing higher cert signings. I apologize once again. Edited ... by not_a_salamander
my bad :(((
