How to download a file over HTTPS using Indy 10 and OpenSSL?

问题

I have the following task: download a file using HTTPS and authentication. Indy seems the way to go but for some reason it doesn't work so far. I have the following in place:

a TIdHTTP component which I use for downloading
a TIdURI component used to create the URL
a TIdSSLIOHandlerSocketOpenSSL component which should provide the secure connection. The required DLLs are in the binary folder.

The site also requires authentication and I included the user/pass in the URL as in the example below. In short this is the code:

URI := TIdURI.Create('https://test.example.com/');
URI.Username := ParamUserName;
URI.Password := ParamPassword;

HTTP := TIdHTTP.Create(nil);
if URI.Protocol = 'https' then
begin
  IOHandler := TIdSSLIOHandlerSocketOpenSSL.Create(nil);
  IOHandler.SSLOptions.Method := sslvSSLv3;
  HTTP.IOHandler := IOHandler;
end;

HTTP.Get(URI.GetFullURI([ofAuthInfo]), FileStream);

Using this code I get a "Read Timeout" EIdReadTimeout exception very fast. Testing the URL in a browser works without problem. Any ideas on what's missing or what I did wrong?

I finally abandoned Indy and OpenSSL and used WinInet for downloading. This is the code that worked for me:

function Download(URL, User, Pass, FileName: string): Boolean;
const
  BufferSize = 1024;
var
  hSession, hURL: HInternet;
  Buffer: array[1..BufferSize] of Byte;
  BufferLen: DWORD;
  F: File;
begin
   Result := False;
   hSession := InternetOpen('', INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG, nil, nil, 0) ;

   // Establish the secure connection
   InternetConnect (
     hSession,
     PChar(FullURL),
     INTERNET_DEFAULT_HTTPS_PORT,
     PChar(User),
     PChar(Pass),
     INTERNET_SERVICE_HTTP,
     0,
     0
   );

  try
    hURL := InternetOpenURL(hSession, PChar(URL), nil, 0, 0, 0) ;
    try
      AssignFile(f, FileName);
      Rewrite(f,1);
      try
        repeat
          InternetReadFile(hURL, @Buffer, SizeOf(Buffer), BufferLen) ;
          BlockWrite(f, Buffer, BufferLen)
        until BufferLen = 0;
      finally
        CloseFile(f) ;
        Result := True;
      end;
    finally
      InternetCloseHandle(hURL)
    end
  finally
    InternetCloseHandle(hSession)
  end;
end;

I have seen the same thing. Setting the TIdHTTP.ReadTimeout to zero fixes the problem for me.

...
HTTP.IOHandler := IOHandler;
HTTP.ReadTimeout := 0;

回答3:

All SSL related functions for secure connections will fail unless some additional libraries are installed properly.

1.) Download libraries

2.) unzip and copy both DLLs to your project folder (or somewhere in the PATH of your system)

with that your code from the question works fine for me.
