Hiyas,

I hope you guys can help cause this one is driving me mad.  Ok, so the good
news first, I can successfully connect my Java SWT App to a normal http site
which also has basic authent setup and i can extract stuff from the page. 
When i try to do the same thing from a SSL or https site i get IO errors.  I
appoligise for not putting the exact trace details in here but i am hoping
this isnt neccessary.  The site has an unverifiable certificate (this cant
be changed) so i have had to setup a security manager to exept all
certificates verified or not.  The docs on the apache site imply that i
should then be able to connect to it like it would a normal page but i have
found this isnt the case.  The code i am using is not exactly designed for
Jakarta commons libs but it should still work shouldnt it ?  This is the
code i have (i got the idea for this code from a site i cant recall the name
of sorry)

[code]
            TrustManager[] trustAllCerts = new TrustManager[]{
                new X509TrustManager() {
                    public java.security.cert.X509Certificate[]
getAcceptedIssuers() {
                        return null;
                    }
                    public void checkClientTrusted(
                        java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] certs, String
authType) {
                    }
                    public void checkServerTrusted(
                        java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] certs, String
authType) {
                    }
                }
            };
            
            try {
                SSLContext sc = SSLContext.getInstance("SSL");
                sc.init(null, trustAllCerts, new java.security.SecureRandom());
               
HttpsURLConnection.setDefaultSSLSocketFactory(sc.getSocketFactory());
            } catch (Exception e) {
                
                e.getMessage();
                
            }
                        
                        HttpClient chester_client = new HttpClient();
[/code]
