HTTPS Web scenario issue, HTTP working

[orangejuice]

I have been trying to get a scenario working with HTTPS but whatever HTTPS website is try to contact it always returns a Time-out. But when I trying this on a HTTP website it does return with an ok status. What modules need to be running on my linux server what ports aside from 80 and 443 need to be open for this to work?

The web scenario is associated with a host, so that host where the test is running would need outbound port 80 and 443 enabled. Unless you are running https over some other nonstandard port ... you would then obviously need outbound access on that port, and to code that port into the URL.

I'm running 2.4.5 and https seems to work, I did a simple test to check for our local application web page. I did not use any other authentication parameters.

A timeout on connect could imply that you are connecting to a port that does not support https, or that the connection itself is blocked for some reason.

If this is a linux host you are running the test from, you could use either curl, or wget, or openssl s_client to test https access from that host to the web server.

I hope that helps

Thank you for your input on this, I found out that curl wasnt echoing any HTTPS because it had no permission todo so. Now It works, thank you.
