@reivilibre Any issues with linking off to this? I'm not sure if you plan to keep it running, etc.

I'm happy for this link to be included but perhaps we could also include a link to the repository, https://github.com/matrix-org/voip-tester?

One day I'm somewhat hoping that the VoIP tester will get a home on matrix.org once it is improved, perhaps at that time we could also change the link :).

I'm not quite sure if the voip tester is yet reliable enough to be linked here (see matrix-org/voip-tester#20 for example. Also it gives spotty results on matrix.sw1v.org which I think I've set up right.)

I can add a statement that says something along the line of not to rely 100% on the negative result.

I got this error

Error occurred during test: VoIPTesterError: M_UNKNOWN_TOKEN Invalid macaroon passed. undefined [Can't get TURN credentials from homeserver]

from a homeserver that has been configured with a working TURN server, where video and audio calls work.

This is very true, although the tool has some utility, there are still issues with it (and judging by the comments I received, more than I knew about).

@rht I think that means the access token you supplied is not valid. Nevertheless, I have opened an issue to get a better error message on that. matrix-org/voip-tester#23

Looks like I'll need to find some time to work on this, which may take a while as it's a particularly hectic and draining time for me recently.

@rht I think that means the access token you supplied is not valid.

I have used the exact same access token I specified in turnserver.conf and homeserver.yaml. What else could go wrong?

You need a Matrix Client-Server API Access token, the kind you'd find after logging in to a client (in Riot/Web, you can look at Settings → Help & About → Access token: >click to reveal>.

The token in turnserver.conf is something different, for the homeserver to be able to create VoIP secrets. (I guess these might also be called access tokens? Can't remember. In any case, suppose it could do with clarifying since it's not obvious.)

  • I added the link to the repo and said that people can file bug reports there.
  • I added caution about using the tester.

@reivilibre aha, I see! I mistook "user id and password" and "access token" to be based on the nomenclature in turnserver.conf (i.e. the static-auth-secret and "user=username1:password1").

Yeah, I can see how that's possible, though I didn't think of it at the time.

Update chat/matrix-synapse to 1.28.0
31d3054 
Synapse 1.28.0 (2021-02-25)
===========================

Note that this release drops support for ARMv7 in the official Docker images, due to repeated problems building for ARMv7 (and the associated maintenance burden this entails).

This release also fixes the documentation included in v1.27.0 around the callback URI for SAML2 identity providers. If your server is configured to use single sign-on via a SAML2 IdP, you may need to make configuration changes. Please review [UPGRADE.rst](UPGRADE.rst) for more details on these changes.


Internal Changes
----------------

- Revert change in v1.28.0rc1 to remove the deprecated SAML endpoint. ([\#9474](matrix-org/synapse#9474))


Synapse 1.28.0rc1 (2021-02-19)
==============================

Removal warning
---------------

The v1 list accounts API is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
This API was undocumented and misleading. It can be replaced by the
[v2 list accounts API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.28.0/docs/admin_api/user_admin_api.rst#list-accounts),
which has been available since Synapse 1.7.0 (2019-12-13).

Please check if you're using any scripts which use the admin API and replace
`GET /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>` with `GET /_synapse/admin/v2/users`.


Features
--------

- New admin API to get the context of an event: `/_synapse/admin/rooms/{roomId}/context/{eventId}`. ([\#9150](matrix-org/synapse#9150))
- Further improvements to the user experience of registration via single sign-on. ([\#9300](matrix-org/synapse#9300), [\#9301](matrix-org/synapse#9301))
- Add hook to spam checker modules that allow checking file uploads and remote downloads. ([\#9311](matrix-org/synapse#9311))
- Add support for receiving OpenID Connect authentication responses via form `POST`s rather than `GET`s. ([\#9376](matrix-org/synapse#9376))
- Add the shadow-banning status to the admin API for user info. ([\#9400](matrix-org/synapse#9400))


Bugfixes
--------

- Fix long-standing bug where sending email notifications would fail for rooms that the server had since left. ([\#9257](matrix-org/synapse#9257))
- Fix bug introduced in Synapse 1.27.0rc1 which meant the "session expired" error page during SSO registration was badly formatted. ([\#9296](matrix-org/synapse#9296))
- Assert a maximum length for some parameters for spec compliance. ([\#9321](matrix-org/synapse#9321), [\#9393](matrix-org/synapse#9393))
- Fix additional errors when previewing URLs: "AttributeError 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'xpath'" and "ValueError: Unicode strings with encoding declaration are not supported. Please use bytes input or XML fragments without declaration.". ([\#9333](matrix-org/synapse#9333))
- Fix a bug causing Synapse to impose the wrong type constraints on fields when processing responses from appservices to `/_matrix/app/v1/thirdparty/user/{protocol}`. ([\#9361](matrix-org/synapse#9361))
- Fix bug where Synapse would occasionally stop reconnecting to Redis after the connection was lost. ([\#9391](matrix-org/synapse#9391))
- Fix a long-standing bug when upgrading a room: "TypeError: '>' not supported between instances of 'NoneType' and 'int'". ([\#9395](matrix-org/synapse#9395))
- Reduce the amount of memory used when generating the URL preview of a file that is larger than the `max_spider_size`. ([\#9421](matrix-org/synapse#9421))
- Fix a long-standing bug in the deduplication of old presence, resulting in no deduplication. ([\#9425](matrix-org/synapse#9425))
- The `ui_auth.session_timeout` config option can now be specified in terms of number of seconds/minutes/etc/. Contributed by Rishabh Arya. ([\#9426](matrix-org/synapse#9426))
- Fix a bug introduced in v1.27.0: "TypeError: int() argument must be a string, a bytes-like object or a number, not 'NoneType." related to the user directory. ([\#9428](matrix-org/synapse#9428))


Updates to the Docker image
---------------------------

- Drop support for ARMv7 in Docker images. ([\#9433](matrix-org/synapse#9433))


Improved Documentation
----------------------

- Reorganize CHANGELOG.md. ([\#9281](matrix-org/synapse#9281))
- Add note to `auto_join_rooms` config option explaining existing rooms must be publicly joinable. ([\#9291](matrix-org/synapse#9291))
- Correct name of Synapse's service file in TURN howto. ([\#9308](matrix-org/synapse#9308))
- Fix the braces in the `oidc_providers` section of the sample config. ([\#9317](matrix-org/synapse#9317))
- Update installation instructions on Fedora. ([\#9322](matrix-org/synapse#9322))
- Add HTTP/2 support to the nginx example configuration. Contributed by David Vo. ([\#9390](matrix-org/synapse#9390))

Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- Deprecate old admin API `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>`. ([\#9429](matrix-org/synapse#9429))


Internal Changes
----------------

- Fix 'object name reserved for internal use' errors with recent versions of SQLite. ([\#9003](matrix-org/synapse#9003))
- Add experimental support for running Synapse with PyPy. ([\#9123](matrix-org/synapse#9123))
- Deny access to additional IP addresses by default. ([\#9240](matrix-org/synapse#9240))

- Remove some dead code from the acceptance of room invites path. ([\#9394](matrix-org/synapse#9394))
- Clean up an unused method in the presence handler code. ([\#9408](matrix-org/synapse#9408))


Synapse 1.27.0 (2021-02-16)
===========================

Note that this release includes a change in Synapse to use Redis as a cache ─ as well as a pub/sub mechanism ─ if Redis support is enabled for workers. No action is needed by server administrators, and we do not expect resource usage of the Redis instance to change dramatically.

This release also changes the callback URI for OpenID Connect (OIDC) and SAML2 identity providers. If your server is configured to use single sign-on via an OIDC/OAuth2 or SAML2 IdP, you may need to make configuration changes. Please review [UPGRADE.rst](UPGRADE.rst) for more details on these changes.

This release also changes escaping of variables in the HTML templates for SSO or email notifications. If you have customised these templates, please review [UPGRADE.rst](UPGRADE.rst) for more details on these changes.

Improved Documentation
----------------------
