Problem

Logging in to a Linchpin instance with Linchpin Mobile via a QR code is not possible and results in an error.


Cause

There are several potential causes for this issue which we collect in the list below. If none of the causes / resolutions fit your issue please contact us via http://seibert.biz/help.

  • Is the certificate chain (including intermediate certificates) for the Linchpin instance you're trying to connect to still valid?
  • You're using an unknown CA (self signed certificates).
  • Is it possible for Linchpin to resolve requests to itself (internal requests)?


Resolution

Depending on the potential cause of this issue try the following options:

  • Make sure the certificate chain (including intermediate certificates) of your Linchpin instance is valid.
  • Make sure the self signed certificate is deployed to all mobile devices that need to establish a connection with your Linchpin.
  • Make sure Linchpin can resolve internal requests to itself correctly. Also check the additional information over at https://seibert.biz/linchpinmobileconnectiontestinternalrequest.
