(sorry to break the thread chain, I just recently joined the list and missed the original responses)
So the example image I was trying to use in FOP was a random google image search result (for foo) that was on a BBC media server that had https with a valid signed (not self-signed) certificate. And when I try to fetch the image using the simple java program below, it works fine. So it doesn't seem to be a JDK or certificate problem. Can someone else test the .fo file in my original email? Feel free to replace the image url with an https reference you trust. import java.net.*; import java.io.*; public class foo { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { URL url = new URL("https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/960x540/p01br4cp.jpg"); URLConnection connection = url.openConnection(); InputStream is = connection.getInputStream(); BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is)); StringBuilder response = new StringBuilder(); String inputLine; while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) response.append(inputLine); in.close(); System.out.println(response.toString()); } } Neil Smeby | Software Engineer Direct: 763-795-4160 Mobile: 763-218-6259 www.infinitecampus.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: fop-users-unsubscr...@xmlgraphics.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: fop-users-h...@xmlgraphics.apache.org
