Hi there,

We have a legacy application in VFP6 that was using the WWHTTP.prg Version 4.26 and encountered a problem where an attempt to initiate an HTTPS connection threw an error:

12045 The certificate authority is not valid [...]

We had just renewed and installed a newly issued Thawte SSL certificate on the web server; on the web server side, we had to install an Intermediate CA file as certain browsers were having a problem with the CA and this has likely caused this problem with the existing application.

I have tried replacing WWCONNECT.h and WWHTTP.prg with V4.68 as that appears to support the parameter

lIgnoreCertificateWarnings

but I cannot find where to set that parameter to .T.

The parameter is not found anywhere in WWHTTP.prg *but* there is a definition in WCONNECT.h as:

#DEFINE INTERNET_FLAG_IGNORE_CERT_CN_INVALID 0x00001000

Does 4.68 support the ignore warnings parameter? If so, how do I set it. If not, any thoughts as to how to approach this?

TIA.

-Arne
