Secure connections fail (can't find libgnutls?)

Post by DevinXXL »

Hello,
I'm on Kubuntu 15.04 and so far I have tried wine1.6 (official repos) and wine 1.7.52.
Both fail to load websites that require encryption.

I'm trying to start the game "Star Stable", but it requires to log in though a launcher which only displays the website launcher.starstable.com. Upon trying to open it though wine internet explorer 8, I noticed that on wine1.7 it just fails to display anything and on 1.6 it displays "400 BAD REQUEST" which is basically the same behaviour as the launcher's.

My own website and every unenecrypted connection seem to work fine on both versions. Both versions tell me that secure connections will fail, wine 1.7 says this is because it can't find libgnutls. Installing libgnutls doesn't solve this. Is there anything I can do?

If your system is 64 bit, did you install 32 bit libgnutls? You need to.

The other possibility is that the Wine package was built against the wrong version of libgnutls. https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32479

Thank you! I actually had to install 32 bit libgnutls AND wine was built against the wrong version.

Copying the file as explained in this post (https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32479#c9) fixed it for me.
