cfhttp with https

[peterswan]

Hello,
I'm trying to create a CF file that I will schedule to run on a weekly basis. The page will run a report on the same server and load the information into an Excel page. Then the page will drop the Excel file onto a directory on our server. Then the page will loop through a list of people and email each person with the file attached.

Everything is fine except that <cfhttp> is not working since we are on a secure server, with a URL starting with https://

Can my project work on a secure server? Maybe I should be using a different ColdFusion tag to achieve my goal?

Thanks,

Peter

Maybe the cfhttp had an attribute?

I know that in my administrator panel where i can scedule http calls i can choose a username and password, i always assumed that was for loging into a https page.

I could gaurentee this as none of my projects currently have https, but i would imagine its doable.

Have a look here

http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/tags-p58.htm

for some more details on the tag.

Please, nobody bash me for using LiveDocs ... i've heard it all before lol.

I know it's a stupid question, but have you specified https;// at the start of your url? If you haven't then cf will default to http

This was a problem in older versions of CF. What version are you on?
