msxml3.dll error '80072f7d' - An error occurred in the secure Channel support

[Krus1972]

I am receiving the following error when using the code below. This code worked fine for many years up until a short while ago. Does anyone have a fix for this?

msxml3.dll error '80072f7d'
An error occurred in the secure Channel support

sURL = "[URL unfurl="true"]https://mywebaddress.com"[/URL]
Set oXMLHttp = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
      oXMLHttp.setOption(2) = 13056
      oXMLHttp.open "GET", sURL, false
      oXMLHttp.send

Any help would be well appreciated.

Try this:

Set oXMLHttp = Server.Createobject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0")

Nope, that produces the same error.

Any other ideas?

Do you know what TLS version you are running?

You could also try

Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP.6.0")

That is the same string that was recommended by a response further up this thread. That string returns the same error.

Any other ideas?

The 2nd recommendation excludes the word Server.

MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0 -> MSXML2.XMLHTTP.6.0

Do you know what TLS version your server is running?

I get this error when using MSXML2.XMLHTTP6.0

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01b6'

msxml6.dll error '800c0005'

The system cannot locate the resource specified.

I do not know what version of TLS. I am running it on Windows 7 localhost IIS.
