Using cfinvoke to consume a webservice with HTTPS

[djunaedwards]

I am trying to consume a webservice using cfinvoke.
The following operation works:
<cfinvoke
webservice="

http://webservice:unsecure

port/<wsdl location>?wsdl" ...

My problem is getting the same cfinvoke working using HTTPS:
<cfinvoke
webservice="

https://webservice:secure

port/<wsdl location>?wsdl" ...

SSL is activated for IIS
I can hit the WSDL file using HTTP or HTTPS through IE but for some reason cfinvoke does not seem to work with SSL.

ColdFusion Server MX Web Services settings will take the HTTP URL, but not the HTTPS URL.

Any suggestions would be appreciated?

Thanks

this is a problem i've seen mentioned on many forums, one solution for a similar problem (with cfhttp, not cfinvoke- but these seem related) was posted on the Macromedia forum involving updating the JRE. I don't know if it will help you but it seems the only resolution i've seen to get around consuming web services with ssl.

That answered my question. My only problem now is that my ColdFusion server does not want to accept the SUN JRE, but I figure I will get that sooner or later.

Thanks for your help.
