After upgrading from D6 (Indy 9) to Delphi 2007 (default Indy 10
components), and attempting to send/receive (xml) data from a secured site
(https) I received the error/exception 'IOHandler value is not valid'.
OK, I searched around and find out I need a 'Handler' component, which I did
not need before (code has gone unchanged since 2004)
I try out TIdServerIOHandlerSSLOpenSSL (no changes to the component) and
when I attempt again, I receive the error/exception 'Socket Error # 11004'
I went as far as downloading the OpenSSL dlls and placing them in the
application's directory, same error.
A bit frustrating to say the least.
Is there a workaround? What's the trick in using the TidHttp component
against https sites? Has Indy feature-creeped itself into obscurity and
it's time to use something else?
Thanks for any info,
krf
