About LSA export : i think it's great if we have a "LSA decrypted" export, then user can choose if done for backup for same server then can be crypted. Or not.

:)

The worst one are Reloading response via token : crypted data

1) A simple test survey with one encrypted question of the same type (no other questions in survey) does NOT reproduce the problem - the fields in the question are decrypted correctly.

? Are you sure ?

Try to import included lsa : i think it broke with a 500 error (Wrong decryption key! Decryption key has changed since this data were last saved, so data can't be decrypted. Please consult our manual at https://manual.limesurvey.org/Data_encryption#Errors.)

Hi - I think I may have diverted attention away from my main issue here by talking about exporting / importing survey archives with encrypted fields.
I did spot issues 15668 and 15669 before posting, and have verified in a one-question survey with encryption that in this case, my export is decrypted - obviously that will be necessary to migrate it to another server with different encryption keys. That may not be so wise for a server backup but that's another question for debate / feature request to select as part of the export.

I did import your test survey and that had an error as expected when I tried to display a response:
"500: Internal Server Error
Call to a member function decrypt() on null"

This is my issue:
With the survey I uploaded here, I get NO errors when I activate the survey, enter one response including 'First Name, Surname', and then display the response.
In the DB I can see that the relevant fields are encrypted, but when displaying the response I see:

[G01Q07_SQ01] (First name) Ys1jwmKfS1+rYB274j2gO06GPrYdL...
[G01Q07_SQ02] (Surname) 5PORCDiCzCidyf4hN0LbX0wdG74d...

(I've shortened the strings above). No error is shown but the decryption is incorrect (the above strings are different from the DB fields for those questions)
Are you able to replicate the problem with my survey?
There seems to be something specific in my uploaded survey that's stopping the correct decryption, though the simple one-question survey with encryption DOES work.
Thanks!

I can confirm i have encrypted field in browse response.

The strange part : « though the simple one-question survey with encryption DOES work.» : you mean a survey with only ONE question (encrypoted) ?

Because a survey with 2 question : one crypted + on not crypted show (and export) only crypted data.

OK : database are not the same, but export as LSA, import as LSA : work and show same data.

Yes that seems to replicate what I'm seeing - both web UI and exported LSA are showing the same data (WRONGLY decrypted version of the DB contents).

Re your previous note - I have made two test surveys - one with only one question that was encrypted, the second survey with two questions, one of which was encrypted. BOTH behaved as expected with the DB fields being encrypted, but shown correctly in the Web UI and being exported unencrypted (as in the attached LSA for the two-question survey).
It is strange that the problem seems to be present in some surveys but not others. If if you are seeing the problem in your survey with only two questions (one encrypted) that may make debugging easier hopefully.

It's not really wrongly encryted since we can export as lsa and import (in same instance) without issue.

If there are a bad system here : we can not do it :)

Yes I understand what you are saying, the decryption on the 'bad' surveys / fields isn't showing an error so must the actual decryption must be happening correctly, but if so, then the correct plaintext string resulting from that decryption isn't being shown in the UI or the LSA. I have checked to see if a small sub-string of what is displayed in the UI / LSA field is present in the encrypted DB field, and it isn't. So I'm not sure where the output shown in UI / LSA is coming from.

Further information:
When a person drops out of the survey without a submit the encrypted data appears fine in the show responses for that record.
However, when the person completes the survey with a submit at the end the encrypted data is not properly displayed in the UI (show responses) for that record.

To follow with more examples - I have a short survey done on Version 4.3.3+200707. An export is attached.
The two questions "appear" to be the same and both are encrypted. The email that is sent to the admin shows with answers without clear text for either (attached)
The Admin "show responses" shows the first question garbled, but the second question is properly decrypted in the UI (response1)

You can create multiple questions of different types and some will be correct and others are not.
IMPORTANT - changing the ORDER of the questions has an impact. (response2) as the first is wrong and the second correct.
Adding another question appears to work properly. (response3)

Email that gets sent to admin  - encryted fields are "hidden"

Checked both : seems fixed now (export lsa from one system to another instance)

@GuernseyResearch : i confirm the 2 issue on last master.

Can you report separatly maybe ? @cdorin : need 2 issue or can be fixed here ?

This appears to be fixed in Version 4.4.0-RC3+210112

Fixed
