Using SSL

Post by SeeCwriter »

When I enable SSL in predef.h, rebuild my application, and load it into a MOD5441X, Ethernet no longer works. No TCP or UDP. I can't even use Autoupdate. I have to use the serial port to reprogram. I'm not using any of the SSL functions at his point. Just building an existing application that uses TCP & UDP. Is that the way it's suppose to work?

This is with v2.9.3.

Hi,

I would stay Ethernet no longer working is not the way it should operate :) The problem must lie elsewhere. The best fallback to diagnose is always to try an example. If you run the SSL Web Demo example program, does Ethernet still work?

To be clear, my application does not use any secure communication. When SSL Support is enabled in predef.h
I am unable to communicate via TCP and UDP. I can ping the module and that works. When I disable SSL Support
TCP and UDP work again. Also, when the application is built with SSL Support enabled, Autoupdate finds the
module, but reprogramming fails.

I created an SSL Web Demo project, but I didn't get the same screens. After entering a project name only
the Finish button was available. The Next button was greyed out. Normally, the next screen is where the
module type is entered, followed by a screen to select which options to add to the project. But not this
time. The project was created, and I imported example program SSL_Web_Demo. But Eclipse doesn't let me
build the project. There is no Build menu item under NBEclipse, and a right-click on the project has
no Build or Clean options in the pop-up menu. I checked the project properties, and it indicates that
the project is a MOD5441X project. And all the files are in the project directory.

Resolution: After speaking with SeeCwriteer, we found that the issue was that during the first step in project creation he was selecting a "general" project instead of a "netburner" project. You must always choose a "netburner" project.
