Quasar: [ios] using ionic wkwebview: error when enabling HTTPS

[mpacary]

Describe the bug
On a fresh new project, when using Ionic WKWebView plugin as described here, enabling HTTPS in quasar.conf, and deploying to simulator with quasar dev, an error is displayed when at app loading (see screenshot) then the screen stays blank.

For search engines, here is the "plain text" error message:

Failed to load webpage with error: The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server pretending to be "192.168.137.177" which could put your confidential information at risk.

No other info / error is displayed in Safari Developer console.

Tested right now with WKWebView plugin provided by Cordova, when enabling HTTPS I get a blank page at app loading, without any error message (even in developer console).

It works without ionic webview or wkwebview.
Will investigate what is wrong for the two.

Thanks for reporting!

You're welcome 😉

FWIW, this issue from Ionic's GitHub might provide helpful info.

Fixed in @quasar/app v1.0.2.
Thanks for reporting!

Thanks for the very fast fix !! tested with @quasar/app v1.0.2, I can confirm that now running on dev mode with HTTPS enabled, does work as expected, with both WKWebView plugins 👏 👏

Thanks for confirming! And enjoy Quasar :)
