Hey there,
We’re running a manuall installation of RocketChat (Version 0.63.3) on Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS with LDAP Authentication (Login Fallback = False).
We’re trying to use Pidgin as the Client. Unfortunately it always says „Connection error: failure with https connection: SSL-Connection failed“. It’s a self signed certificate, i also imported it to pidgin.
The connection works over the Browser and also over the rocketchat client. So i don’t think it’s a Problem in generell.
Maybe my Apache config is not compatible with Pidgin?
