sdk 7.2.1 makeWebRequest returns -1001 for https url

Ultra 2 months ago

This is driving me mad.

I'm working on a new version of an existing data field of mine, The new version is currently in beta. The existing version was built on SDK 6.4.1 and works just fine. I'm building the new version with sdk 7.2.1. On the device, an existing makeWebRequest call that I'm making to a HTTPS URL is returning a status code of -1001 which indicates secure connection required. Why is it doing this, when it didn't do it under SDK 6.4.1?

I've reverted to SDK 6.4.1 for now and all is working as it should be. Later today I'll raise a bug report against SDK 7.2.1

If you switch back to 6.4.1 today, do you see the same error? What I'm thinking is that it's something with the server, like an expired certificate.

I've used the 7.x SDKs for some time (now 7.2.1), and my apps that do makeWebRequests have had no issue in either the sim or on a device. I'm hitting public servers..

Nope, I checked the current live version off SDK 6.4.1 and thst was fine. If it was an expired certificate thst would hsve been trivial to spot. I’ve now built the latest beta with SDK 6.4.1 and all is as it should be. Clearly the bug is with Garmin and their SDK 7.2.1.
