Godaddy Standard SSL CFHTTP Keystore

Trying to connect via CFHTTP to a server that switched an SSL from Verisign to Godaddy.  Had no problems while they were with Verisign.

I've spent about 5-6 hours researching varios posts but none seem to have a solution.

I've downloaded the .cer file to my machine, installed it in the coldfusion jre keystore with keytool.  Restarted Coldfusion, same error, connection refused.

I then tried downloading the godaddy cer files from their repository, imported them, restarted coldfusion, same error.

I then downloaded and installed the latest jdk, installed it and moved coldfusion away from the included jvm and into the new one.  Imported all the keys into that keystore, restarted coldfusion, same error.

I performed this same task on a server running CF8 and CF9.

Has anyone had any success with godaddy ssl's that could give me some guidance to where I am going wrong?

thanks

    For me, it turned out the company bought the el-cheapo godaddy ssl certificate. If they would have spent a few more dollars and got the standard one, I would have had no problems.

    I ended up finding cfx_http5. I purchased that for the server and switched my code to use that with no problem.

    I also ended up going with the cfx_http5 custom tag. Worked perfectly.
