Can't use local mailvelope keyserver

Hi,

I configured a local mailvelope keyserver, which works well if queried manually using hkps:

openssl s_client -connect 192.0.2.15:443
GET /pks/lookup?op=get&keyId=0xabcdef1234567890&options=mr

However when using gpgtools/GPG Keychain and setting the keyserver there to 192.0.2.15, all I get is "bad server".

When observing traffic with Wireshark, i notice the ssl connection being terminated right after the key exchange.

I've tried to run a "fake" ssl server using openssl s_server on port 443, but all I get is the same behaviour.

Using: GPG Suite 2019.1 2542n, GPG Kychain 1.5 1579n

    Since there were these automated suggestions: There is no firewall issue, since openssl is able to connect.

    I however have the impression it is unlikely to be a certificate issue either, since:

    $ /usr/local/MacGPG2/bin/dirmngr -vvvv --no-detach (...) dirmngr[2891.0]: Vertrauenswürdiges Zertifikat `/Users/t/keyserver.pem' wurde geladen
    (...) OK Dirmngr 2.2.17 at your service
    KEYSERVER hkps://keyserver.example.org
    OK
    KS_GET (fingerprint)
    dirmngr[2891.0]: resolve_dns_addr for 'keyserver.example.org': 'keyserver.example.org' [already known]
    S SOURCE https://keyserver.example.org:443
    (...) OK

    works just fine and as expected.

    Hmm... kannst du bitte mal debug logging aktivieren für dirmngr:

    echo "debug-level guru" >> ~/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf
    echo "debug-all" >> ~/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf
    echo "log-file /tmp/dirmngr.log" >> ~/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf
    killall dirmngr

    Dann einen versuch in GPG Keychain ausführen den keyserver zu switchen und /tmp/dirmngr.log hier anhängen.

    Danke!
