Question

Making Coldfusion8 play nice with godaddy issued SSL cert

Hello,

I've been making my eyes and fingers bleed frantically trying to make Coldfusion8's JRE recognize godaddy ssl certificates. This is apparently a known issue and I've followed the instructions found on this webpage:

http://cfblog.com/cfblog/index.cfm?catID=21

Many times over. I've added literally every available certificate both from their repository and from the ssl certificate management tool on their site.

I am, unfortunately, at wits end. I've added tons of certificates, restarted the windows box multiple times, but nothing. No matter what I do CFHTTP returns "Connection Refused" when using the https protocol but works fine for http.

I would greatly appreciate any help.  Huge thank yous in advance.

Notes:

- I've confirmed that coldfusion is indeed using the JRE i've been adding keys to.

- cfhttp works fine for verisign issued https sites

- I'm on a windows box trying to connect to a linux box

- it's a godaddy "Turbo SSL" certificate

    I ended up using an alternative and more expensive cert to get it to be recognized.
