Electrum Personal Server installation issues with Sparrow and Bitcoin Core

Switching to the Electrum wallet is a good option. However, the Electrum personal server certificate is out of date since March, so you must change the certificate. Create a new certificate as follows:

cd EPS/electrumpersonalserver/certs/
rm cert.*

$ openssl genrsa -des3 -passout pass:x -out server.pass.key 2048

$ openssl rsa -passin pass:x -in server.pass.key -out server.key

Write RSA key

$ rm server.pass.key

$ openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr

...


Country Name (2 letter code) (AU):US

State or Province Name (full name) (Some-State):California

Common Name (eg, YOUR name) (): electrum-server.tld

...

A challenge password ():

...

$ openssl x509 -req -days 1825 -in server.csr -signkey server.key -out server.crt

You are now in the EPS directory.

nano config.ini

that much server.crt The file is a suitable certificate for: ssl_certfile= The parameters and server.key correspond to: ssl_keyfile= In Electrum server configuration. Make sure the path to that file is set correctly. Then restart EPS and it should connect properly.
