Disable SSL verification

[tyler-shuhnicki]

Hello!

I'm attempting to reference files from our CDN in order to export an HTML page we have to a PDF output. It looks like it's almost working, but I'm having one issue - referencing our CDN results in an Error Code 6 - SSL verification failed.

I have jsreports running on http instead of https - I tried the httpsserver route, but we are hosting on elastic beanstalk, and the listeners are giving us way too much trouble.

In theory, I could just include our CDN files and do a search/replace to use only the local files - but I'd like to avoid that overhead and maintaining the CDN in two places

Is there a way to disable SSL verification for outgoing GET request?

Thanks much!

Does this config help?

"extensions": {    
    "extensions": {
      "chrome-pdf": {
        "launchOptions": {
          "args": ["--ignore-certificate-errors"]
        }
      },

Hi Jan,

Thanks for the quick response, and apologies for the long delay!

We're using phantompdf still for our reports (we have a number of large reports and a maximum runtime of 30s, and phatomPDF has given us some better looped performance. I have it my backlog to upgrade to jsreport v3, as well as change the server architecture on AWS, but it appears to be a big complicated due to missing libraries). I've tried this configuration with no dice:

"phantom-pdf": {
"strategy":"phantom-server",
"numberOfWorkers": 4,
"timeout": 180000,
"allowLocalFilesAccess": true,
"defaultPhantomjsVersion": "1.9.8",
"launchOptions": {
"args": ["--ignore-certificate-errors"]
}
}

Is there a phantompdf alternative?

Thank you!

Ah ok, you use the phantom. My answer was for chrome.

We actually already disable the ssl for phantom, but still, it doesn't seem to help
https://github.com/jsreport/jsreport-phantom-pdf/issues/31

I remember we had to use some older linux with older openssl in order to make phantom properly deal with https, but I don't remember the details and not sure if its an option for you anyway.

I'm afraid I won't help you with this. Of course, the recommendation would be to migrate to chrome. We have some hints here:

Got it, thanks Jan.

I'm getting this error for chromePDF:

We're running on Elastic Beanstalk for an AWS EC2, I believe we're missing dependencies. Do you happen to have a link of the required deps that I can review?

Similarly - chromium dependencies are potentially keeping us from upgrading to jsreport v3 and moving to ARM64 architecture. Do you happen to know any arm-friendly chromium packages?

Thanks again!
