Font dowloader does not work in Odessey

I have had a problem with Odessey since I reinstalled my X5000 lately. I get this error when I try to download the fonts:

Looks like a certificate problem of some kind or an error in the script. I have had the problem both before and after I updated to AmiSSL4.1 and can't seem to fine a solution.

Odessey works fine (posting from it now).

Any suggestions?

@johnfante

You can ignore SSL errors in the Security section of the settings in Odyssey's preferences, perhaps that will let you access the download.

You don't have to Save the ignore setting, just "Use" it.

@Nbache
Johnfante probably use Download_Fonts script which come with odyssey.

@Johnfante
Script use wget to download stuff, so add --no-check-certificate parametr to wget. To that big string of mess, add it right after that Datas/wget --tries 10 (don't forget to put spaces before and after, so it will be as normal parametr)

Also odyssey didn't use AmiSSL in any part, it just build on pure openssl library.

@kas1e

Thank you

Adding --no-check-certificate to the script did the trick. Now it works!

Also thank you to @nbache for your suggestion.

Hi guys. I have a fresh install of amiga os 4.1 FE update 1 on my peg 2 and im trying to download the fonts as well. I added the no check args but the fonts still wont download due to SSL error.. Do i have to install SSL seperately or does it come with os4? Thanks

I have a wget built with OpenSSL 1.0.2e which while old, does communicate with Sourceforge without the '--no-check-certificate'. I don't remember where I got it from, possibly I compiled it myself; the OpenSSL installed is that same version.

The wget bundled with Odyssey is 1.12 as well, but apparently with a circa 2009 library.
OpenSSL is at 'o' with the 1.0.2 line.

edit: actually what often happens is that wget doesn't like the mismatch between certificate and hostname.

@Thematic

Interesting post but gives me no information to help me with the problem im having .( and anyone else getting os 4.1 first time)

@magnetic

The fonts can be downloaded here https://sourceforge.net/projects/corefonts/files/the%20fonts/final/
These files are still packed, so either get the TTF file with UnArc or do something like

@Thematic

Thanks for your help

@Thematic

I cant DL the fonts as it says "SSL error" this is with owb and odysey browsers. Talk about frustrating. Since im using 4.1 fe now i get SSL errors and cant access websites...

I installe Amissl4 but it doesnt do any good.

@magnetic

I wonder if you can download https://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem because plain http does not work. If that works, put it in the directory with Odyssey but with the name curl-ca-bundle.crt

Should that not help I do not know what the difference is... maybe a different version of Odyssey?

I am having this problem, having dug out my XE and tryin gto get it back to life again. It was running 4.1u6, I have installed 4.1fe and the u1, u2 and u2hf updates, so should be all up to date. Odyssey was giving me this font problem, and partial solution from Kas1e got me a little further:

@kas1e
Script use wget to download stuff, so add --no-check-certificate parametr to wget. To that big string of mess, add it right after that Datas/wget --tries 10 (don't forget to put spaces before and after, so it will be as normal parametr)


But... While some fonts were downloaded this way, it failed and complains when it gets to georgi32, and says OWB WON'T work in the requestor. Same as for the first font, andale32, and also from sourceforge, so not sure what happened for this one after several worked fine.

Can we get the fonts manually and install separately, for Odyssey to use?

I have never used odyssey before, but the AmiStore setup recommends Odyssey. I haven't figured out how to use AmiStore yet, clicking buy and add to cart but nothing happens but more login requestors from it, so hopefully this browser bit will help something functional to happen for AmiStore...

Hi,

You can use Curl.

Replace Datas/Wget and it's options by Curl -L and the -O by -o after the <F>.exe

Regards,

This is what i had to do. Used the Curl command with the --cacert curl-ca-bundle.crt

echo >t:fetchfont{$$} ".KEY F*NCurl -L --cacert curl-ca-bundle.crt http://downloads.sourceforge.net/proj ... fonts/final/<F>.exe -o t:ff_tmp<*$*$>*Nif not val *$RC eq 0*Nrequestchoice >nil: *"OWB font downloader*" *"Failed to fetch font '<F>'. OWB WON'T work*" *"Ok*"*Nquit 22*Nendif*Nc:xadUnFile t:ff_tmp<*$*$> sys:fonts/_ttf file=#?.TTF overwrite*Nif not val *$RC eq 0*Nrequestchoice >nil: *"OWB font downloader*" *"Failed to unpack '<F>' font archive. OWB WON'T work*" *"Ok*"*nquit 22*Nendif"

Then i got a few errors....
sys:fonts/_ttf/Ariali.TTF: opening file failed
sys:fonts/_ttf/Arialbd.TTF: opening file failed
Wrote 224692 bytes: sys:fonts/_ttf/Arialbi.TTF
sys:fonts/_ttf/Arial.TTF: opening file failed
Processed 4 files, 3 errors.

I renamed the fonts that gave the error For example renamed Ariali.TTF to Ariali_old.TTF etc..
Did a retry, and all fonts succesfully downloaded!
