Same problem for me.
I tried the sysPass-XML-Decrypter and it works, but I would rather use this.
We are in the process of switching from Keepass and the ability to make offline backups to run from a USB stick is paramount to us, sine in a all-systems-down situation we really have to have access to the password database.
Tried to change the master password didn't help.
Maybe some entries in our database is malformed?
MortenVinding commentedon Mar 8, 2022
turned out the reason was we have some password entries without a name!
If the export/backup is without a password you can just edit the xml file and add a name for those entries:
cat syspass.xml | sed 's:<name/>:<name>No name set</name>:g' > syspass-w-names.xmlMortenVinding commentedon Mar 8, 2022
also it might be worth mentioning that you DON'T need the master password to search the database and show the entries.
only to decrypt the passwords.
so if you just want to browse the database, or check your xml export, just hit enter on the master password prompt.

It worked for me, thank you very much
with syspass xml decripter I have not been able to make the export... the passwords are not visible. The other things (notes, url, etc) are visible.
This is what happens to me:
https://gitlab.com/MagicFab/sysPass-XML-Decrypter/-/issues/2
And this program only serves to consult? can not I export everything in a csv/xml to keepass?
