A JavaScript function (my first) did the trick. Thank you Bruce!

Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Session Timer expiration
« on: August 28, 2020, 07:10:07 AM »
This doesn't solve your problem directly, but this may be a helpful alternative.
I use a "Saved" column that is populated = 1 when the user saves the record (and all else is validated). Browses have a Saved = 1 included in the filter/select statement. If a user begins to create a record and walks away without saving: the Session is timed-out, the browser is directed to the login page, and the partial record is never seen by the user b/c the Saved column was not populated with a 1.
Of course, this affects the users if they spent a lot of effort filling-in information, walk away, and the record is "lost". I haven't had any difficulties in this regard, but my timeout is longer than 15 minutes.

Hi Bruce,
Thank you for your reply. Just to make sure that I understand, and to provide more info...
I am building some XML, encoding the XML, placing the encoded XML in the below SAMLResponse field, and POSTing the below to the vendor's site:
POST [vendor's URL] HTTP/1.1
Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, */*
Accept-Language: en
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.2.16) Gecko/20110319 Firefox/3.6.16 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET4.0C)
Host: [vendor's site]
Content-Length: 5427
Connection: Keep-Alive
SAMLResponse=[a bunch of characters like this:PHNhbWxwOlJlc3B, not XML]&RelayState=[vendor's URL]
After sending the above, the vendor's site responds with their logged-in page that should display on the user's browser. When I've done SOAP in the past, I simply receive data and handle it accordingly. This time, I am trying to send the below and simultaneously have the user link to the vendor's page. Sorry if this doesn't make sense or does not give you sufficient info; this is the best I know how to explain it.
Are you suggesting that the JavaScript function handle building and encoding the XML?
Thank you again,
Tim

Web Server - Ask For Help / WebServer Single Sign On (SSO) SAML Request
« on: August 27, 2020, 08:04:12 AM »
I have a NetTalk Web Server site that should pass authenticated users to a vendor site via a SSO SAML request. I can successfully send the request and login to the vendor's site using a NetWebClient post (I see the successful login pages being received in the PageReceived method). However, I cannot link-up, post, send, redirect, whatever, the received pages to the user's browser.
Is there a web server method which links/posts to another party's site x-www-form-urlencoded content type AND have the user's browser follow?
I tried a p_web.script p_web.windowopen on the URL after login. It didn't work. I'm pretty sure it doesn't work because cookies aren't being sent.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.

The Rest - Ask For Help / Re: SSL SOAP Request - Certificates but No Key
« on: November 25, 2014, 10:17:06 AM »
All is good now.
BTW, for those that may need this in the future, in my case I had to add the following too:
Web.SSLMethod = NET:SSLMethodSSLv23
Thank you for your help.

Hi Bruce,
Thank you for the reply.
I saw CA_Roots.pem commented in the example, but the host did not provide a file with a .pem extension. I only have files with .cer extensions: Their URL .cer, RootCA.cer, and Chain.cer.
I did try:
(1) renaming the RootCA.cer file to CA_Roots.pem
(2) changed code to Web.SSLCertificateOptions.CARootFile = 'CA_Roots.pem'
(3) Kept as-is:
Web.SSLCertificateOptions.DontVerifyRemoteCertificateCommonName = 0
Web.SSLCertificateOptions.DontVerifyRemoteCertificateWithCARoot = 0
The above didn't work. SSL Error 11.
Any other ideas please.
Thanks,
Tim

The Rest - Ask For Help / SSL SOAP Request - Certificates but No Key
« on: November 19, 2014, 12:56:30 PM »
I am writing a SOAP request to a server which requires SSL. I receive this error when posting the request: error number -53 which means Open Timeout or Failure error - [SSL Error = 11]. I gather there is an SSL authentication issue.
We are connected to the host via a VPN. My counterpart at the host site said there is no cert key. But that we have to have the certs loaded to the keystore on the server. She provided 3 certificate files: 1 file with the URL.cer, RootCA.cer, and Chain.cer. She also said there is a root certificate, and an intermediate certificate, the Root certificate is required, at a minimum; however, depending on my system the URL cert may also need to be installed.
The following is my SSL code. However, I tried every permuation of the following settings that I can think of.
Web.SSL = 1
Web.SSLCertificateOptions.CertificateFile = ''
Web.SSLCertificateOptions.PrivateKeyFile = ''
Web.SSLCertificateOptions.DontVerifyRemoteCertificateCommonName = 0
Web.SSLCertificateOptions.DontVerifyRemoteCertificateWithCARoot = 0
Web.SSLCertificateOptions.CARootFile = '.\RootCA.cer'
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
