9.3.1 HowTo: Using mobile service connections with SSL

MaxGlas

Hi all,

because I had the problem too I want to profit you:
if you connect to a server url using MobileService and SSL and your certifikate is not recoginized as a secure ssl certifikate, you will get this error:

The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.

The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.

To suppress this validation you can just add this before calling MobileService.Open();

System.Net.ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = delegate { return true; };

For me this worked.

Because it seems not to be clear:

MobileService mobileService = new MobileService();
mobileService.Url = "https://server:443/arcgis/services/mobileservicename/MapServer/MobileServer"
mobileService.CacheStoragePath = @C:\temp\MapCache;

System.Net.ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = delegate { return true; };

//perhaps some token credentials

mobileService.Open();
