Problems with showing facebook page in Qml WebView in qt5 for windows

IonRod

Im trying to show facebook page in my Qt5 WebView using qml. On MacOs everything is fine but on Windows I've got a problem: "SSL handshake failed" I've installed openSSL from 0.9.8y to 1.0.1e but still got a problem. Also I've tried Qt versions: 5.0.0 and 5.0.1 (mingw and visual studio builds)

I cannot use 4.8.* and older Qt version due to some reason.

PS. Sorry for my bad english.

IonRod

The problems seems to be in openSSL. When I'm performing command openssl s_client -connect www.facebook.com:443 it ruins with error: unable to get local issuer certificate

IonRod

To reproduse bug just open https://www.facebook.com in QML WebView 3.0

Ok, i found the problem and the solution for Qt 4.*.
The idea is to ignore SSL errors, you could find the example here:
http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/8911

Now the only one question is how to implement it in Qt 5.0.1 with QWebKit 3.0

IonRod

The solutions is really simple:
@import QtWebKit 3.0
import QtWebKit.experimental 1.0

WebView {
id: webView;
url: "https://www.facebook.com";
experimental.certificateVerificationDialog: Item {
Component.onCompleted: {
model.accept();
}
}
}@

Thank you for sharing the solution with us!

No problem.

Just an addition:
It uses Experimental API, so probably in wont work on any system and any Qt5 version. I've tested it on Windows 7 and Qt 5.0.1 msvc2010 version.

IonRod, can you post some links to the documentation about this experimental features of qml WebView?

For some reason suggested solution is not working for me. I am using Qt 5.4.
Is there some other workaround?

Ok, I have found somewhere solution.
Basically I needed to put 2 files with .exe file:
libeay32.dll
ssleay32.dll

No need for experimental or anything, just add libraries and it works.

I put these files next to my executable but I still get a blank page (Qt 5.4.1).
Are you sure that you didn't do something else?

@julienw Yes, thats all. I downloaded OpenSSL and extracted those DLL's from installation directory.
Maybe you forgot some Qt DLL's to put along with your application.
