My customer has informed my of issues with their SSL and Internet Explorer. They said they get trust issues when accessing the URL.
I am accessing JSON through HTTPS. The website sits on one server and I am using the console app on my local machine. I am trying to bypass the SSL Cert, however, my code still fails.
Can I alter HttpWebRequest to fix this problem?
I get this error using this code:
// You must change the URL to point to your Web server.
HttpWebRequest req = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
req.Method = "GET";
req.AllowAutoRedirect = true;
// allows for validation of SSL conversations
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = delegate { return true; };
WebResponse respon = req.GetResponse();
Stream res = respon.GetResponseStream();
string ret = "";
byte[] buffer = new byte[1048];
int read = 0;
while ((read = res.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) > 0)
{
//Console.Write(Encoding.ASCII.GetString(buffer, 0, read));
ret += Encoding.ASCII.GetString(buffer, 0, read);
}
return ret;
I had to enable other security protocol versions to resolve the issue:
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls
| SecurityProtocolType.Tls11
| SecurityProtocolType.Tls12
| SecurityProtocolType.Ssl3;
