Hello again
I have been looking into this a little further as of late but unfortunately the team that issues the certificates are being very unhelpful to say the least so the password for the cert has to remain as it is.
For argument sake, let’s assume the password for the cert is: P@ssw0rd.
I have tried a variety of different escaping methods, replacing the special characters with octal numbers, hexadecimal etc. But still I am unable to authorise with the web service.
For example:
==Escape==
P\@ssw0rd.
P@ssw0rd\.
P\@ssw0rd\.
P"@"ssw0rd.
P@ssw0rd"."
P"@"ssw0rd"."
==OCTAL==
P\100ssw0rd.
P@ssw0rd\056
P\100ssw0rd\056
==HEX==
P\u0040ssw0rd.
P@ssw0rd\u002E
P\u0040ssw0rd\u002E
I’m all out of ideas. Have you not come across this before?
Thanks again.
