Re: Wildcard Certificate and CFHTTP over SSL

2007-05-16 Thread Wes Middendorff
What version is your SSL. SSLv3 can produce similar results. I had a similar 
situation and had to create a java class and seperate keystore for SSLv3 
certificates. CFHTTP does not support SSLv3 and should not work at all, but in 
my situation I was able to connect to a testing platform (same cert), but not 
the production systems.

Yep - we definitely have restarted the servers.  I'm not so sure about my 
original theory now either as our test servers also use the same wildcard 
certificate, and they appear to be able to connect using the wildcard without a 
problem...  :(

I tried your site and get a connection error too, However I also tried
one of our sites, also using a wildcard cert (not from the same
provider as yours) and that worked fine.

Did you restart CF (or even all of JRun) after adding the CA cert to
the keystore?

Wildcard Certificate and CFHTTP over SSL

2007-05-16 Thread Colin Jones
We're running CFMX 7.0.2 (using JRun4) and have everything set up and working 
with the exception that CFHTTP calls to our server, which has a wildcard SSL 
certificate (*.rgu.ac.uk) are not working. 

My immediate suspicion is that when trying to connect to https://www.rgu.ac.uk, 
CFHTTP is seeing the certificate as *.rgu.ac.uk, deciding it is not a match for 
www.rgu.ac.uk and therefore rejecting the connection. The root certifying 
authority has been added to trustStore, ordinary CFHTTP connection work, as do 
CFHTTP to other SSL sites with 'normal' certificates. 

Anyone any idea why CFHTTP calling an https:// page would be failing - perhaps 
because of the wildcard certificate - and if so what we can do to fix this? 

Cheers, Colin.
