Hello, I have a problem to access a WSDL file from Flex's WebService class over HTTPS on IE.
I have tried using Flex Builder 2 / 3 but the problem is the same. The web-server I am using is appWeb. Note that the same code works ok when I run it over HTTP (both IE and FF), and also over HTTPS but only from FireFox. The only problem is running it from IE over HTTPS. Analyzing the tcpdump I have compared the attempt to fetch the SWDL file from the flex code to a similar request done from the IE web-browser by typing the WSDL address in the URL field (This works ok and the browser displays the WSDL file). It seems that after the initial handshake the TCP connection is closed and the flex code doesn't open a new connection (like the IE does in the direct attempt). I am using the following lines of code in Flex: var webService:WebService = new WebService(); webService.showBusyCursor = true; webService.useProxy = false; webService.wsdl = "https://<IP_ADDRESS>/MyService.wsdl"; webService.endpointURI = "https://<IP_ADDRESS>/SoapServer.php?serviceName=MyService"; webService.addEventListener(LoadEvent.LOAD, handleLoad); webService.useProxy = false; I have received the following error: [SWF] C:\f2rca\_workspace\List\bin\List-debug.swf - 1,187,356 bytes after decompression 'DDDB2F4F-F7C5-676C-DDC6-819D636D5140' producer set destination to 'DefaultHTTP'. warning: unable to bind to property 'callType' on class 'Object' (class is not an IEventDispatcher) warning: unable to bind to property 'callType' on class 'Object' (class is not an IEventDispatcher) warning: unable to bind to property 'callType' on class 'Object' (class is not an IEventDispatcher) warning: unable to bind to property 'callType' on class 'Object' (class is not an IEventDispatcher) Initializing WebService: https://135.64.100.135/SoapServer.php?serviceName=MyService, debug is: true Registering schema namespace: http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema Registering schema namespace: http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema Registering schema namespace: http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema Registering schema namespace: http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/ Registering schema namespace: http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap Registering schema namespace: http://rpc.xml.coldfusion '971164BA-D5DE-788B-5557-819D668A052A' producer set destination to 'DefaultHTTP'.

"IE" : "FF"; ob_end_clean(); if ($browser == "IE") { header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0"); header('Pragma: private'); } else { header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate"); // HTTP/1.1 header("Pragma: no-cache"); header("Expires: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") .
