Hello,
I am writing an iPhone application and I would like to connect to a 'HTTPS' server to get some information. However, I get the error in the console which is
NSUnderlyingError = Error Domain=kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork Code=-1202 UserInfo=0x3e95cf0 "The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be “example.com” which could put your confidential information at risk."; }
How can I trust the certificate and get the http status code 200
The following is my code.
NSMutableURLRequest *request_get2 = [[[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init] autorelease];
[request_get2 setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"https://www.example.com"]];
[request_get2 setHTTPMethod:@"GET"];
[request_get2 setValue:@"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
//[request_get2 setValue:@"text/html; charset=UTF-8" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
[request_get2 setValue:@"https://www.example.com" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Referer"];
[request_get2 setHTTPShouldHandleCookies:YES];
// cookiesString is in format "cookieName=cookieValue;"
[request_get2 setValue: (NSString *) cookiesString forHTTPHeaderField:@"Cookie"];
// doGet - response
NSHTTPURLResponse *response_get2 = nil; // it change from 'NSURLRespaonse' to 'NSHTTPURLResponse'
NSError *error_get2 = nil;
NSData *responseData_get2 = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request_get2 returningResponse:&response_get2 error:&error_get2];
NSString *data_get2 = [[NSString alloc]initWithData:responseData_get2 encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
if (!error_get2) {
NSString *responseURL_get2 = [[response_get2 URL] absoluteString]; // null value
NSString *responseTextEncodingName_get2 = [response_get2 textEncodingName]; // null value
NSString *responseMIMEType_get2 = [response_get2 MIMEType]; // null value
NSUInteger *responseStatusCode_get2 = [response_get2 statusCode]; //[responseStatusCode intValue]; // the status code is 0
}
else {
NSLog(@"\nsomething went wrong: %@\n", [error_get2 userInfo]); // got the error in here
}
Can anyone help me. Thank you.
