1 Connection type or permission problems

Server is configured to connect with PSK to agent but agent accepts only unencrypted connections

In server or proxy log (with GnuTLS 3.3.16)

Get value from agent failed: zbx_tls_connect(): gnutls_handshake() failed: \
           -110 The TLS connection was non-properly terminated.

In server or proxy log (with OpenSSL 1.0.2c)

Get value from agent failed: TCP connection successful, cannot establish TLS to [[127.0.0.1]:10050]: \
           Connection closed by peer. Check allowed connection types and access rights

One side connects with certificate but other side accepts only PSK or vice versa

In any log (with GnuTLS):

failed to accept an incoming connection: from 127.0.0.1: zbx_tls_accept(): gnutls_handshake() failed:\
           -21 Could not negotiate a supported cipher suite.

In any log (with OpenSSL 1.0.2c):

failed to accept an incoming connection: from 127.0.0.1: TLS handshake returned error code 1:\
           file .\ssl\s3_srvr.c line 1411: error:1408A0C1:SSL routines:ssl3_get_client_hello:no shared cipher:\

Attempting to use Zabbix sender compiled with TLS support to send data to Zabbix server/proxy compiled without TLS

In accepting-side log:
...failed to accept an incoming connection: from 127.0.0.1: support for TLS was not compiled in

One side connects with PSK but other side uses LibreSSL or has been compiled without encryption support

LibreSSL does not support PSK.

In connecting-side log:

...TCP successful, cannot establish TLS to [[192.168.1.2]:10050]: SSL_connect() I/O error: [0] Success

In accepting-side log:

...failed to accept an incoming connection: from 192.168.1.2: support for PSK was not compiled in

In Zabbix frontend:

Get value from agent failed: TCP successful, cannot establish TLS to [[192.168.1.2]:10050]: SSL_connect() I/O error: [0] Success

One side connects with PSK but other side uses OpenSSL with PSK support disabled
