Exception when calling the dragnet webservice over SSL HTTPS

Post by anderskj1 » Mon Apr 10, 2006 6:01 am

Hi. We use the dragenetwebservice to add bug through our own interface. This has worked perfectly until we moved dragnet to anohter server which uses SSL. The server does not have a signed certificate.

The problem is, when we call the webservice we get the following exception:

Code: Select all

The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException: The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure. Source Error: An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below.
I have searched the forums before posting but i did not find a solution to my problem. Any ideas what is going on?

Thanks in regards

If this is your own interface, you may be able to code it to ignore the certificate problem.

The following thread in Microsoft's ASP.NET forum may help you:

I am trying to use this to get around the same problem. Doing it by config didn't work so I pasted the following into my C# code:

internal class AcceptAllCertificatePolicy : ICertificatePolicy
{
public AcceptAllCertificatePolicy()
{
}

public bool CheckValidationResult(ServicePoint sPoint,
X509Certificate cert, WebRequest wRequest,int certProb)
{
// Always accept
return true;
}
}

ServicePointManager.CertificatePolicy = new AcceptAllCertificatePolicy();

but the bolded part gives me: "class, struct or interface must have a return type". I tried public void AcceptAllCertificatePolicy() but I still get this. What am I doing wrong?

I've seen this error where the constructor's name does not match the class name due to a typo, but your code looks correct.

I wouldn't think this is the problem, but it might be worth looking at the declaration. Is the declaration of your Accept class in the same assembly as the ServicePointManager.CertificatePolicy call? Does changing the keyword internal to public help?

This doesn't make sense, as I think you would get a protection or violation error due to the classes protection declaration. But other than that, I don't see any other problems in the code.
