Apparently your client uses Windows and IE, AFAICS there is no such issue with other platforms and other browsers.
Perhaps you already thought of, but there is no solution to this problem, because SSL was designed to exactly do not allow tweaks by evil adversaries to get rid of the browser warning. Having said that, this actually is a lie. There are some tweaks, but they involve help of a 3rd party tool. You cannot fix this on the direct path from your client to GAE. If you could, this would render SSL worthless. The only tweak I know of is using reverse proxy methods. So your client afterwards accesses URL https://some-version.lastest.example.com/... instead of URL https://some-version.latest.APPID.appspot.com/... To implement this type of reverse proying you need following: - Some hosting besides Google - it only is needed to serve old application versions. - Apache or NGINX as reverse proxy (perhaps squid is usable, too) - A wildcard SSL cert for *.latest.example.com - A dedicated IP on which this SSL cert is installed - The reverse proxy setup to forward https requests to https of appspot.com - Perhaps some minor changes to the application in case some minor things (Cookies, direct paths etc.) are broken due to the reverse proxy. If you do not want to use a self-signed cert, please be informed that "unlimited 2 years wild cards certificates" do not need to cost more than 50$. You only need to find out where to get it this cheap. Hint: Try Google for the exact phrase, and remember it need not be the first hit. ;) (Have you order this by some good sysadmin, as they know what to do. Perhaps this source is nothing for sales-type-people or experienced- programmer-only folks.) However it does not work out of the box. You still need your own hosting, and if this comes down no service to your customer (except auf the main appID). -Tino On 1 Jun., 21:12, Houston startup coder <[email protected]> wrote: [..] > different-version.latest.my-app.appspot.com > > Google's certificate is for *.appspot.com so even though we install > that certificate, it doesn't match > > *.latest.*.appspot.com > > and the user is being prompted every time the program tries to access -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
