Certificate Handling

I'm trying to access an https url to stream content from ne.edgecast.cdn.net and the certificate has 'cn=edgecastcdn.net' and a subject alternate names of edgecastcdn.net, edgecastcdn.ne.net. When attempting to open the stream in a video screen I get this error:

play failed: An unexpected problem (but not server timeout or HTTP error) has been detected.

Does anyone know if Roku can handle subject alternate names? This same url works fine without SSL.

I don't have any answers yet, but I'll be investigating as I have time.

Re: Certificate Handling

Looks like host ne.edgecast.cdn.net is not available....

Re: Certificate Handling

The hostname is ne.edgecastcdn.net, the cn is to edgecastcdn.net and the subject alternate names are edgecastcdn.net, ne.edgecastcdn.net

The server is up and running right now

Re: Certificate Handling

bbrouse,

Try something like the following:

    obj = CreateObject("roUrlTransfer")
obj.SetPort(CreateObject("roMessagePort"))
obj.SetUrl(url)
obj.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
obj.SetCertificatesFile("common:/certs/ca-bundle.crt")
obj.InitClientCertificates()
obj.EnableEncodings(true)


This was what worked for me.
