Hi, I am getting the following error when doing a post to REST API,
Enter PEM pass phrase: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./ices_catalog_feeder.py", line 193, in ? main(sys.argv[1]) File "./ices_catalog_feeder.py", line 60, in main post2Catalog(catalog_host, catalog_port, catalog_path, os.path.join (input_dir, file), collection_name, key_file, cert_file) File "./ices_catalog_feeder.py", line 125, in post2Catalog connection.request('POST', path, parameters, head) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/httplib.py", line 810, in request self._send_request(method, url, body, headers) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/httplib.py", line 833, in _send_request self.endheaders() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/httplib.py", line 804, in endheaders self._send_output() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/httplib.py", line 685, in _send_output self.send(msg) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/httplib.py", line 652, in send self.connect() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/httplib.py", line 1079, in connect ssl = socket.ssl(sock, self.key_file, self.cert_file) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/socket.py", line 74, in ssl return _realssl(sock, keyfile, certfile) socket.sslerror: (1, 'error:14094412:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert bad certificate') My code where this error occurs is: head = {"Content-Type" : "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", "Accept" : "text/plain"} parameters = urlencode({"collection" : collection, "entryxml" : open (file,'r').read()}) print "Sending the file to: " + host try: try: # Default port is 443. # key_file is the name of a PEM formatted file that contains your private key. # cert_file is a PEM formatted certificate chain file. connection = httplib.HTTPSConnection(host, int(port), key_file, cert_file) connection.request('POST', path, parameters, head) response = connection.getresponse() print response.status, response.reason except httplib.error, (value,message): print value + ':' + message finally: connection.close() I was wondering if this is due to the server having a invalid server cert? If I go to this server in my browser, I get a "This server tried to identify itself with invalid information". Is there a way to ignore this issue with Python? Can I setup a trust store and add this server to the trust store? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
