Hi,

 

I had capture the date using Fiddler for both working and non-working site, below is the difference.

 

Working using http

Not-working using https

GET HTTP/1.1 Accept: image/gif, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-shockwave-flash, application/vnd.ms-excel, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/msword, application/xaml+xml, application/x-ms-xbap, application/x-ms-application, application/vnd.ms-xpsdocument, / Accept-Language: en-us User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; InfoPath.2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729) Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Connection: Keep-Alive Host: e-correspondence-hosted-t.yesser.egov Cookie: ASP.NET_SessionId=xih1gufpkf25p3zqf1vpgjeh; MachineName=10; LOGINUSER=dms_test1

 

HTTP/1.0 302 Found Location: Server: BigIP Connection: Keep-Alive Content-Length: 0

 

Can we find out any solution with this

So the difference is in the response (with the first being a 200 response and content). The second one is a 302 which says "Try your request again using this URL: xxxx". After the second one (the 302 response), do you get any other requests in Fiddler to the https link? If not, then it sounds like your client is not working with the redirect status. Are you using a java app? If so, is it an in-house application or off the shelf purchased kind of application? If you can talk to the developers, maybe they can help fix the issue with it.
