Hi there,

I am currently evaluating passbolt as a trial period and cannot get KeePass files imported.  
When using the import and selecting a \*.kdbx file i get an error.

Error Message:  
There was an unexpected error…  
Error NotImplemented: Argon2 not implemented

Systeminformation:  
passbolt trial license  
installation based on the ova image

So far i tried to update my KeePass Instalaltion (from 2.44 to 2.47), Saving the \*.kdbx with new version, same error.  
Am I right that there is a specific package missing in the debian install? If so please tell me the needed install steps/packages.

Thank you in advance

EDIT:  
Is this connected to the format of the kdbx file using Folders? I see that the sample kdbx file has none.

Found the Solution:  
KeePass itself is offering different Key transformation settings.

In KeePass go to:  
File → Database Settings  
Security Tab  
Key Transformation Section  
Key derivation function: Argon2d

Change the Setting and save the database. Import works just fine.

Please Close
