How can I verify if I have a problem with my SSL setup?

You can run a command to check the status of your SSL installation.

Symptom

I have installed SSL security and want to ensure that it is set up correctly.

Problem

I do not know how to check the SSL installation.

Solution

  1. Download the OpenSSL tool.
  2. In a command prompt window, type the following where TEXTMLSERVER is the hostname of your TEXTML server:
    openssl s_client -connect TEXTMLSERVER:2551 -CApath c:\ProgramData\IxiaSoft\TextmlProxy\Certificates
  3. The output should have a return code of 0. For example:
    Start Time: 1530024370
    Timeout : 300 (sec)
    Verify return code: 0 (ok)
