Good digging! It sounds like what you've done should work.

Try adding this jvm arg too to see if that sheds any light on what's going on.

     -Djavax.net.debug=ssl

Failing that, write a class that extends org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AllowAllHostnameVerifier. In it, override the verify method calling super.verify() but also adding in some logging to verify it's being called.

After some digging I found there was already a built in verifier class for doing this, so I tried this too, but it didnt work either:

*-Dcom.naryx.cfm.http.X509HostnameVerifier=org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AllowAllHostnameVerifier*

And the bluedragon.log shows no error, it loads it fine:

*Using alternative CFHTTP hostname verifier: org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AllowAllHostnameVerifier*

But it still doesn't work...

*Connect Exception: hostname in certificate didn't match*

    Did that not work?

    So another developer team at my company is developing a REST web
    service in .NET and we need to do testing with it in OpenBD.
    Having played with it in a browser I am fairly certain using it
    from OpenBD will be trivial, but we have a problem when it comes
    to actually testing it...

    The test server is setup using a self-signed certificate. No
    problem I figured, been there, done that. I added the cert to our
    keystore thinking that would take care of everything - nope...
    Turns out the certificate is setup for a different hostname (from
    another site on that box), but we can't use that hostname because
    they are using host headers to direct the traffic to the test web
    service. They can't or won't change it - they don't understand
    the issue since they can deal with it just fine on their end
    (ugghhhh)...

    So long story short, I started digging into how to get
    OpenBD/Java to ignore hostname mismatches. I came across this in
    the source code for OpenBD (cfHttpConnection.java)

    if(System
    
<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/System.html>.getProperty("com.naryx.cfm.http.X509HostnameVerifier")!=
    null){
    String
    <http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/String.html> 
hostnameVerifier
    = System
    
<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/System.html>.getProperty("com.naryx.cfm.http.X509HostnameVerifier");
    cfEngine.log("-] Using alternative CFHTTP hostname verifier: " +
    hostnameVerifier );
    hostVerifier = ( X509HostnameVerifier )Class
    <http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/Class.html>.forName( 
hostnameVerifier
    ).newInstance();
    }

    I never saw this feature before and I can't find documentation
    for it anywhere. My question I guess is does anyone know how to
    get this to work? I tried creating a class implementing
    X509HostnameVerifier and I put the class file for it in
    /WEB-INF/classes - then I set the
    com.naryx.cfm.http.X509HostnameVerfier property to the name of
    the class in my server startup - but it doesn't seem to do
    anything at all.

    Is this worth bothering with? Is there another way to get CFHTTP
    to ignore hostname mismatches? I have already been done the road
    of trying to implement a java agent to set the default
    hostnameverfifier, but that doesn't seem to work either...
