Thanks, that makes it clear.

We had to renew the certificate on our Eduroam NPS server, apparently it was still using the old expired certificate however we linked the new certificate to the existing NPS policies. After removing the old expired certificates (several expired ones were still there) from the Windows certificatestor it worked again.
But in the moment that it didn’t work, you go back to the tools already installed on your phone and that was EduroamCAT.
I also tried the geteduroam, but that didn’t work either, but was related to our servercertifcate issue.

All fine now !

 

Best regards, Gert-Jan

Gert-Jan,

 

You should be using geteduroam on any Android versions newer than 10. The eduroam CAT app on Android has been depreciated for several years.

 

Kind regards

Subject: [[cat-users]] CAT tool doesn't work

Hi,

 

Today I tried the eduroamCAT tool to configure an eduroam profile, but whatever (Netherlands) Institute I select the tool says:

Configuration File Error

Read Error with Config File

The site eduroam Configuration Assistant Tool lists CAT was recently upgraded to version 2.2.2

Installed on my Google Pixel phone app version 1.2.14, when I search in the Appstore for eduroamcat I only find geteduroam (SURFnet).

Is the eduroamCAT app no longer supported ?

 

Met vriendelijke groet,

Gert-Jan van der Stroom
