HTTPS and self-signed certificate issue

Question

I have to use HTTPS for sending POST requests to a server (using a self-signed certificate). This is how I do it:

HttpClient httpClient = getHttpClient();

f         


        

Answer 1

try this before performing the request

    SSLSocketFactory ssl =  (SSLSocketFactory)http.getConnectionManager().getSchemeRegistry().getScheme( "https" ).getSocketFactory(); 
    ssl.setHostnameVerifier( SSLSocketFactory.ALLOW_ALL_HOSTNAME_VERIFIER );
