UPDATED - Betfair.com Login - Disabling TLS Ciphers - 3rd February 2020

[clacherholiday2]

I wont be able to fix this for 2 weeks now judging by the solutions posted elsewhere, I need physical access to the machine to make offline changes, absolutely fing furious.

Ive been running the same system forever without a hint of a problem, why were these changes made now?

Dim request AsHttpWebRequest = _

WebRequest.Create("https://identitysso-cert.betfair.com/api/certlogin")

request.Method = "POST"

request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

request.Headers.Add("X-Application: " & My.Settings.Betfair_APPKEY)

request.ClientCertificates.Add(cert)

request.Accept = "application/json"

Using dataStream AsStream = request.GetRequestStream()

Using writer AsNew _

StreamWriter(dataStream, Encoding.[Default])

writer.Write(postData)

Hey Aron, I got mine to work (I'm running a NET version with TLS 1.2 btw) by inserting the line from the previous page so try:



Dim postData AsString = _

"username=" & My.Settings.Betfair_LOGIN & "&password=" & My.Settings.Betfair_PASS

Dim cert AsNewX509Certificate2(My.Settings.FilePath_DB & "client-2048.p12", "")

ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12

Dim request AsHttpWebRequest = _

WebRequest.Create("https://identitysso-cert.betfair.com/api/certlogin")

request.Method = "POST"

request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

request.Headers.Add("X-Application: " & My.Settings.Betfair_APPKEY)
