使用Android通过HTTP进行POST请求

Question

I've got a big problem. I've to POST to an URL some parameters from my application. But when I try to do it within a WebView object it trows me an exception that says "Untrusted Certicate" (the exception is trown by the method in override of the WebViewClient onReceivedSslError()). How can I be able to handshake correctly with the server? Could you please give me some tips? I'm getting crazy...

Really, really thanks...

EDIT: this is how I've defined my webview

webView = (WebView) myFragmentView.findViewById(R.id.webView);
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient(){
        @Override
        public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String string){
            Log.debug(tag, "URL pagina terminata :"+webView.getUrl() );
            if(progress!=null) 
                if(progress.isShowing()){progress.dismiss();}
        }

        @Override
        public void onReceivedError(WebView view, 
                int errorCode,
                String description, 
                String failingUrl) {
            Log.error(tag, "ERROR:" + description );
           }

        @Override
        public void onReceivedSslError(WebView view,
                SslErrorHandler handler, SslError error) {
            super.onReceivedSslError(view, handler, error);
            Log.error(tag, "SSL Error received: "+ error.getPrimaryError());

            handler.proceed();
        }


    });

This is how I've created a postRequest within a WebView

webView.postUrl(url, EncodingUtils.getBytes(postParameters, "base64"));

This is the LogCat output:

SSL Error received: 3 - Untrusted Certificate

Now, googling a little bit I've seen that there's the need to check the validity of the certificate and to import the keychain into a local keystore. But the problem is that I'0 don't know where to start... :)

Answer 1

If security is not a priority, you can try to call handler.proceed() in your onReceivedSslError() , Don't call the super method.

If security is a priority (and it should be):

I haven't tried this myself for webView, but try setting your certificate like this: Android WebView setCertificate issues SSL problems

To get the actual certificates you can load them into your browser (by accepting the warning when you open the url in the browser) and the export them from there, or you can use the openssl tool like described here: http://blog.crazybob.org/2010/02/android-trusting-ssl-certificates.html
