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.

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

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

Please PM me an url you are trying to access and I’ll take a look.

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.
