    Not working with SSL?

    I installed this on our dev system and it worked perfectly but since moving to our test system (which uses SSL with a self-signed certificate) all the links come back with status "NO RESPONSE" - I'm guessing this is because the site is using a self-signed SSL cert? Will it fix itself once we get the real thing?

    Hi. To be honest, I've never tested it on a site with SSL. My only thought is that it's related to a "mis-matched" certificate as mentioned in this post and this one. I'm using the .NET class HttpWebRequest. Have a look at http://www.west-wind.com/weblog/posts/2011/Feb/11/HttpWebRequest-and-Ignoring-SSL-Certificate-Errors and see if you can add the following to web.config to get it to ignore this:

      <system.net>
    <settings>
      <servicePointManager
          checkCertificateName="false"
          checkCertificateRevocationList="false"         
      />
    </settings>
  </system.net>

    Thanks for the quick reply!

    Sadly no joy with the web.config fiddle. I will wait and see what happens when we get the real thing.

    It was definitely the self-certification ... all working fine now we're live and have a real SSL cert. :)
