Our app sends data to a Java web application over SSL but has an unsigned certificate. If you go there with a web browser you get the "certificate might be invalid, proceed with caution etc" warning. With HTTPService and Flex we get an HTTPStatusEvent with code 0, and an IOErrorEvent, thereby prohibiting us from making the call.
Is there any way to tell Flex to ignore the certificate problems, like you can do in curl with the -k argument ? For testing I temporarily added http access to the Java app and the Flex ran as expected, so I am pretty sure this all comes down to the unsigned certificate. Thanks Paul ps No, I have no idea why our IT group won't get a signed certificate for that, and other, applications.
