So, I am currently working on a PHP-based Alfresco upload applet. In a non-encrypted environment, the code at the end works great, over SSL, the $session->save(); command fails. providing the following error500 - socket_connect() failed. Reason: () The requested address is not valid in its context.
Hunting it down, when I use both SSL and non-SSL connections I am able to use GET/retrieve statements to retrieve data such as $repository->authenticate($user, $password); $repository->createSession($_SESSION["ticket"]); $session->getNode($spacesStore,$nodeID); and $props = $childNode->properties;So, I seem to be able to retrieve any data I wish from the repository using the alfresco PHP API over SSL however, $session->save(); doesn't like SSL. The code I am using is posted below. First, it sets up a session with the repo using a user-session ticket generated in another applet. It then pulls the children of the designated "drop box" node to see if a file with the same name exists. I don't want people to update/delete/overwrite files at this point. It successfully checks polls alfresco to run a file name comparison, then begins to setup the child. This code works great over a non-encrypted connection but, over ssl, everything works till i call $session-save().I am running a 1028 bit RSA ssl key over port 443 using a url like the following. https://server.company.com/alfresco/api. Alfresco is version "Version: Labs - v3.0.0 (Stable 1526)" this test box used the windows 3.0 full installer running on win 2k3 r2. The php server is the current version of xampp with openssl enabled. try{
