Description

Hi,
could it be, that there is a connection-problem, if I use https? I get no videos back?

I tried to get a new token with https, but the system ignored my form.

Did someone use this with https?

Cheers

Try using 1.4 release if this is still an issue, please re-open.

I had major CVS trouble, but it seems to be resolved :)

Hi Kyle,

I tried now several ways , but it seems to that the problem with https is still existing.

I tried the 1.4 and the dev.

I got no video back, only if I disable https during uploading and receiving :-(. If I turn https later on the video is still there - curious?!!

Cheers Kai

Kai,

Are you using a self-signed certificate? If so, the backend will not connect to return status on the transcoded video.

Hi acstewart,
I don't self-signed a certificate. I'm using one of my provider. The certificate is from COMODO CA Limited.
How can I find out if is the right one for cdn2?

Cheers Kai

Kai, There's no "right one for cdn2".. The problem is that CDN2 won't auto-accept certificates. I'd recommend setting up an exclusion for /xmlrpc.php so that it doesn't go over ssl. This shouldn't be a security issue for cdn2's callback as the request itself is signed with a temporary key.

Notification fail :)

So you'll have to add an exclude in your httpd server config for xmlrpc.php so that it doesn't require https

In apache, you can use a rewrite to exclude xmlrpc.php from https:

RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !^/xmlrpc.php
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}/%1 [R=301,L]
