Hi @careyh I am receiving this error as well when running Komodo 12.0 on my Windows 10 computer. I have pasted the contents to my pystderr.txt below. Please note that for some of the links I have put a space between the https and the rest of the link so that my post contains less than 2 links. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thank you!

You might be hitting this known issue which has a workaround here: [2021-11-24 15:49:45,323] [ERROR] console-logger: community.komodoide.com:443 uses an invalid security certificate - Support - Komodo IDE & Edit | Forums

Thanks for the logs. That was really helpful.

Also following up with our network team to see if something might have changed that could be causing this issue:

mricci02 · October 3, 2022, 10:39pm

I am confused, I don’t see anywhere to download the cert from that article. They do reference an intermediate cert that I suppose you could copy and paste into a file. This is really rather silly, what cert am I missing? Can you post it here for download, with instructions for importing to either Trusted root or intermediate cert stores. All this to try to see if a tool works? Maybe I will look elsewhere.

efurey612 · October 3, 2022, 10:45pm

For the known issue error, is there a way to access the Komodo Edit menu if I can’t log in? I can’t seem to get past the “Login failed, it appears you are offline” screen. Thank you!

mricci02 · October 3, 2022, 11:03pm

Having same trouble.

careyh · October 6, 2022, 4:15pm

Morning @mricci02,

All the information you need is contained in the post I linked and the post it references.

@efurey612 yikes. True enough. Other than hacking the code base, no this isn’t possible.

This could be an option. If either of you are interested in the hackaround let me know what OS you’re on and I can write the instructions.

If not, I know VS Code is rocking the IDE world still though it is super frustrating to have to add EVERY FEATURE post install. Sublime Text is really good I hear as well and in fact using Komodo Edits Code intel under the hood though they would have diverged quite a bit by now.

efurey612 · October 6, 2022, 7:48pm

Hi Carey, any hackaround would be much appreciated. I did download VS Code but ran into the same frustration of adding every feature post install. I’ll check out Sublime Text as well.

In the meantime, please see the below details for my OS:
Edition: Windows 11 Enterprise
Version: 21H2
OS Build: 22000.978

I’m not a computer person so please let me know if this information is sufficient or if anything else is needed. Thank you so much

careyh · October 6, 2022, 10:07pm

For Windows you’ll need to have 7zip installed.

Note that this will break any integrations with the ActiveState Platform and the ActiveState State Tool:

Uninstall Komodo then re-install BUT change the install directory to your home folder, something like this C:\Users[yourname]\ActiveState Komodo IDE 12
Open File Explorer and navigate to C:\Users[yourname]\ActiveState Komodo IDE 12\lib\mozilla\chrome
Right click on komodo.jar > 7Zip > Open Archive
Click Extract and extract the folders into the chrome folder
Open the following file in a text editor: content\komodo.js
Comment out line 27 and save.
1. The line should have the following on it:
  1. auth.authenticated((authenticated) => { if ( ! authenticated) openLoginDialog();});
Rename the original komodo.jar to something else, like orig.komodo.jar
In File Explore, in the chrome folder, ctrl + click on the content, locale and skin folder then right click > 7Zip > Add to archive…
Make sure that zip is selected as the archive format.
Name the file komodo.jar.
Click Ok
You should now have a komodo.jar file and a orig.komodo.jar file in your chrome folder.

You should now be able to start Komodo normally and not hit the login screen.

Edit: made the line of code to change easier to find and explicitly what should be ON that line. Thanks @Andrew_Gilby for asking for clarification!

Carey

efurey612 · October 6, 2022, 10:37pm

That worked perfectly!! I am now able to open Komodo 12 and run my scripts successfully. Thank you so much!!

careyh · October 11, 2022, 4:06pm

Convoluted process but I’m glad it worked!

Rajesh_Mane · April 5, 2024, 9:22pm

careyh - these steps did not work for me, I am using.
[Komodo-IDE-12.0.1-91869.msi] from OpenKomodoIDE/installers at master · ActiveState/OpenKomodoIDE · GitHub
can you please assist.

careyh · April 5, 2024, 9:51pm

@Rajesh_Mane,

Provide step by step recount of what you tried. Without know what you tried I have no idea what might be wrong.

Rajesh_Mane · April 29, 2024, 2:13pm

It worked, thank you for your help!!

Rajesh_Mane · August 22, 2024, 3:00pm

IMP Note: making these changes before launching Komodo for the first time.

Andrew_Gilby · September 6, 2024, 5:46pm

I have tried to follow these steps and i am unable to accomplish these steps.

I can only download the files from Github it automatically downloads to the download folder and then when I move them to my home screen it does not allow me to export the files from 7-zip to them they are not an option to click on.

I got a new computer and I am trying to download Komodo IED 12 and it gives me a sign failure not connected to the internet. please help me fix this!

Why can you not just download this program and it work? seems like something I missing

careyh · September 6, 2024, 7:04pm

Hi @Andrew_Gilby,

Why can you not just download this program and it work? seems like something I missing

Komodo is no longer supported by ActiveState and has been open sourced for a couple years now. That would be the part you’re missing I suspect.

For reference: Komodo IDE Retired and Open Sourced - Announcements - Komodo IDE & Edit | Forums.

I’ll try to give you a hand in your other thread but please stop yelling

Andrew_Gilby · September 6, 2024, 7:15pm

Hello Carey,

Thanks for taking the time to assist with this.

I’ve been contending with this for a few hours and my frustrations aren’t subtle, it appears. Apologies for that!

I tried following your steps but was unable to avoid the log in screen when I launched Komodo, so I’ll hazard I botched a step or something.

Any help would greatly appreciated!

Andrew_Gilby · September 9, 2024, 5:32pm

These edits fixed my issues thank you so much!
