Ignoring certificate errors with NSURLConnection

Question

I am getting this error

The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server
that is pretending to be \"server addres goes here\"         


        

Answer 1

You've set the delegate as self, so you can fix this by implementing part of NSURLConnectionDelegate in the class sending that request.

Implement this:

-(void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge:(NSURLAuthenticationChallenge *)challenge;

By doing this:

[challenge.sender continueWithoutCredentialForAuthenticationChallenge:challenge];

Note: this is NOT a solution to use in production. Certificates exist for a reason! :)
