Hi,
Frustratingly the PloneFlashUpload issue tracker redirects to p4a. I don't
know how many projects I'm expected to sign up to to actually log a ticket
against something in the collective so I'm just going to post here.
The aforementioned product, both version 1.1 and the new 1.2rc completely
fail to post to https urls.
They each work brilliantly in http postings, both directly to Zope and via
Apache. However, no https uploads work. This is rather unfortunate,
because unlike http, I cannot sniff the offending traffic.
If someone who knows more about Flash (or PloneFlashUpload) than I can share
any observations, that would be great. I am more than willing to post logs
in excruciating detail to resolve this.
The HTTP(S) transaction for the upload is performed by Flash rather
than by the host browser of the plugin. It looks like Flash has its
own interpretation (rather than matching the browsers interpretation)
about what is a valid HTTPS certificate. For example self signed
certificates are not valid. See
http://swfupload.org/forum/generaldiscussion/347
Michael, thank you for that piece of wisdom - I'd suspected HTTP_REFERER
or suchlike but not being able to disect swf hoped somebody would have
some ideas.
Cheers, Alan
