Hi,  I thought so too and there is the command sslcertificates which the
dictionary says is to set the list of files and folders to search for ssl 
certificates.


However if I set the file name of an image object to an https URL  
 the image will load without me specifying sslcertificates.   
This is what made me think that I don't need to use the sslcertificates 
command

Also if I use revbrowser it will open https sites and it will open a 
movie hosted on an https page.  So RevBrowswer is handling https sites
without me specifying the path to ssl certificates.  

I am not sure if it is a bug that the https URL doesn't work in the player
or if there is something that I am supposed to do in terms of handling
or providing the path to the ssl certificates on the computer.

I am just learning about this so I have been experimenting with a few things.   

I tried

open secure socket to www.mysecuresite.com:443 with message wasConnected

this opens the socket which i can see with 

answer the opensockets()

This shows the socket forwww.mysecuresite.com:443 as open

Still after I open the socket when I set the filename of the player to a movie 
on the secure  site no movie is loaded in the player

I'm not sure about this one, we need a guru.

I know in this case it isn't Rev handling the browser, it's webkit or 
IE. Rev just displays an instance of the OS browser, so that's what 
handles certificates in that case.

or if there is something that I am supposed to do in terms of handling

That's why we need a guru. I'm weak in this area too.

Well, sockets are a different animal. I think you're on the right track 
questioning the url library. Sorry I don't know more. Did you try 
checking the QCC for similar reports?

I am just hacking around here but I tried this

 I created a 'certificates' folder 

Then I opened my website in Safari then clicked on the lock to 
show the certificates

Then I dragged three certificates that are sown into that folder 
which created two .cer files and one .crt file in the folder

then I used the 'set  the sslcertificates' command to set the path to
 that folder

That did not work

Then I opened the site in firefox and then exported the certificates
into the certificates folder.

This still did not work.

Again not sure what I am doing here so if there is an obvious error 
or flaw in the approach let me know.

I also tried

libUrlSetSSLVerification false

This did not solve the problem either.

I am trying this on Mac OS X 10.5.8 and I noticed from searching
other posts that the was a problem with SSL on the mac.

Is this still true?

I have also noticed inconsistent behavior with setting the filename
of the image object to an https url.   Originally it worked.   Since
I have been trying the other commands to solve the player object
issue the image on the https site does not always load.  However
if I use

 libUrlSetSSLVerification false

the image will load.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I've not tried this but if you can fetch the same url as data with:

   -  put url 
https://www.mysecuresite.com/movie/mymovie.movhttps://www.mysecuresite.com/movie/mymovie.mov
   

And you are not able to set the filename - then it must be a bug?

 Any ideas why this happens?

I can download the data with put URL but how do I get that 
data into a player?   I suppose I could download the file then 
open the file but that doesn't allow you to start playing the 
movie while downloading.

I can set the filename to the HTTPS URL but the movie 
does not appear in the player as it does when you use 
an HTTP URL.

I have entered it as a bug, #8773

player object and https URL

2010-05-15 Thread Martin Koob
I tried to set the filename of a player object to  the url for a movie which
 is on an ssl protected server 
ie https://www.mysecuresite.com/movie/mymovie.mov
The movie does not load

If I put open the same URL in a revbrowser window it works
ie.

put revBrowserOpen(the windowID of this stack, \
https://www.mysecuresite.com/movie/mymovie.mov;) into tBrowserId

If I set the filename of an image object to an image on an ssl protected
 server it works
ie.  https://www.mysecuresite.com/movie/myimage.png

So it seems that the player object is having problems with the https url.  

Is there something else I need to do or is this a bug.  I searched the 
Rev Quality Control Center and I can't find a mention of this as a bug.
