hostname in certificate didn't match
Hi
When I make a connection with HttpClient 4.0.1, I get this message:
hostname in certificate didn't match: <1.2.3.4> != <*.testing.com>
However when I go to my site in any browser, the certificate is for "*.testing.com" so I was wondering where the hostname is being converted to an IP address. In my code (where I make the connection) I use the hostname "something.testing.com" which as far as I can make out, should work.
I'm quite new to this, and this seems to be slightly different to other posts I've found on the same exception so if anyone could give me some tips I would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Richard
PS This is my code by the way (I'm using BASIC authentication as the site uses authentication)
String url = protocol + "://" + hostname + ":" + port + path;
log.debug("Authenticating user " + userName + " against URL: " + url);
// Set up the connection objects
DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
httpclient.getCredentialsProvider().setCredentials(
new AuthScope(hostname, port, AuthScope.ANY_REALM, authScheme),
new UsernamePasswordCredentials(userName, password));
HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet(url);
log.debug("Executing request " + httpget.getRequestLine());
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpget);

Hmm, I tried this too in case it was a problem with the default hostname verifier, but I still have the same problem:
String url = protocol + "://" + hostname + ":" + port + path;
log.debug("Authenticating user " + userName + " against URL: " + url);
HttpParams params = new BasicHttpParams();
HttpProtocolParams.setVersion(params, HttpVersion.HTTP_1_1);
HttpProtocolParams.setContentCharset(params, "UTF-8");
int timeoutConnection = 3000;
HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(params, timeoutConnection);
int timeoutSocket = 5000;
HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(params, timeoutSocket);
SchemeRegistry registry = new SchemeRegistry();
registry.register(new Scheme("http", PlainSocketFactory
.getSocketFactory(), 80));
final SSLSocketFactory sslSocketFactory = SSLSocketFactory
.getSocketFactory();
sslSocketFactory
.setHostnameVerifier(SSLSocketFactory.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE_HOSTNAME_VERIFIER);
registry.register(new Scheme("https", sslSocketFactory, 443));
ThreadSafeClientConnManager manager = new ThreadSafeClientConnManager(
params, registry);
DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(manager, params);
