When I try to download a file from the web, on an https connection via DownloadFile() it fails with a "Unknown protocol in URL!"
I can download them using http, but its not enough in my case.
Is there any way to download files using the https?
DownloadFile with https protocol
Re: DownloadFile with https protocol
Whiel waiting for someone who actually knows, this is just a guess, since I am not that well aware of this topic, but https, that last letter s probably means "security" or something similar. Which means that there might be some sort of encryption in place, which in turn means that to download from https address you would need some sort of encryption in place. Maybe a plugin that is not existing yet.

Yes exactly, and that is the problem.
But if some one did have a fix for it, I would be very happy.

Re: DownloadFile with https protocol
https uses tcp port 443 not 80.
you could try
Downloadfile("https://www.yourserver.com:443/file")...... dont know if that would work
or
OpenConnection(1, yoursever.com , 443)
Then use http get and put commands via receivedata to get the necessary file.
Edit you cant use download file this is what you get back
<html>
<head><title>400 The plain HTTP request was sent to HTTPS port</title></head>
<body bgcolor="white">
<center><h1>400 Bad Request</h1></center>

Re: DownloadFile with https protocol
This doesnt work either
OpenConnection (1, "www.djangoproject.com", 443)
SendData(1, "GET https://www.djangoproject.com/m/release ... 6.2.tar.gz ".."/HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n")
a$=ReceiveData(1, #RECEIVEALL)
CloseConnection(1)
OpenFile(1, "downloadedfile", #MODE_WRITE)
WriteLine(1,a$)
CloseFile(1)
It looks like to emulate a https get request there would need to be an opensslconnection function

Re: DownloadFile with https protocol
HTTPS needs SSL support which Hollywood currently doesn't provide. You can use wget or some other external program as a workaround.
