Hi, I'm having problems getting PHP XML-RPC working over SSL; it all works fine over port 80. I suspect I'm struggling because my certificates are messed up.
This is the error message I'm getting: "CURL error: couldn't use certificate!" The server's apache access_log and error_log don't display anything, so I'm assuming that it's going wrong on the client - presumably because I've set the certificates up incorrectly for CURL. This is what I'm doing. 1. Create a certificate request and key for the server: openssl req -new > server.cert.csr 2. Remove the passphrase: openssl rsa -in privkey.pem -out server.cert.key 3. Convert request into a self-signed cert: openssl x509 -in server.cert.csr -out server.cert.cert -req -signkey \ server.cert.key -days 365 4. Add the following directives to httpd.conf: SSLCertificateFile /path/to/certs/server.cert.cert SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/certs/server.cert.key SSLCACertificateFile /path/to/certs/my.CA.cert SSLVerifyClient 3 5. Create a certificate request and key for the client: openssl req -new > client.cert.csr 6. Remove the passphrase: openssl rsa -in privkey.pem -out client.cert.key 7. sign the client request with the CA key: openssl x509 -req -in client.cert.csr -out client.cert.cert -signkey \ server.cert.key -CA server.cert.cert -CAkey server.cert.key \ -CAcreateserial -days 365 8. Use the following in my XML-RPC call: $server = new xmlrpc_client("test.php",$inet,443); $server->setCertificate("client.cert.cert",""); $result = $server->send($message,10,"https"); Anyone got any ideas? tia, josh. --------------------------------------- Josh Howlett, Network Support Officer, Networking & Digital Communications, Information Systems & Computing, University of Bristol, U.K. 0117 928 7850 | [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------- -- For information about how to subscribe and unsubscribe from this list visit http://xmlrpc.usefulinc.com/list.html
