Hey Folks, Sometimes you need to use a self-signed certificate with a server that you want to access with LiveCode. When using LiveCode with Desktop Apps, you can issue libURLSetSSLVerification false and be happy but if you're using LiveCode server, then you're lost because there is no way to disable the check and the connection will fail if you use an self-signed certificate.
A real world scenario is using a credit card payment processor server that listens on a secure socket. To do transactions we need to do HTTPS POST requests to the server but they fail because the server uses a self-signed certificate. No all SSL certificates need to be signed by a CA to be useful. We need this feature or we'll soon have to move to PHP or to some other language that allows us to use self-signed certificates. Our previous versions used shell() calls to CURL but we wan't to move away from that. For those that need the feature, this is the bug: http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=10177 Cheers andre -- http://www.andregarzia.com -- All We Do Is Code. http://fon.nu -- minimalist url shortening service. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
