allenchow - maybe your service doesn't have access rights to the certificate files? PS Since I started this thread I might as well finish it by saying I never got a letsencrypt certificate (unable to generate one) so went and paid godaddy lots of money. PPS Why do people keep adding to threads with their own (usually unrelated) problems. If you have an issue start a new thread.

Unfortunately it doesn't "really work" for me. After having to change some things in PowerShell I eventually got to "(7) Request and Retrieve the Certificate". The first step works: New-ACMECertificate dns1 -Generate -Alias cert1 But the next line: Submit-ACMECertificate cert1 always generates the same error regardless if I have run PowerShell as Admin or normally, changed all the permissions and whatever. Submit-ACMECertificate : Access to the path 'C:\Users\[User]\AppData\Local\ACMESharp\userVault\45-KEYPM\[...]-key.pem' is denied. I can create files fine in that folder and if I create the file it errs on then it says "asset file already exists". I have wasted WAY to much time on this. I will now try the paid godaddy route and see if that works...

Thanks for the reply. We're using a fairly recent version as we only bought it within the last couple of months. Perhaps I will go down the route of generating a self-signed certificate in the first instance. My difficulty at this stage seems mostly to do with actually generating the files I need for a standalone exe running on Windows (lots of the letsencrypt site is geared towards linux and many of the Windows tools are geared towards IIS), Since developers use unigui we are used to building things ourselves and I was hoping someone here had used the free letsencrypt service. PS. I'm not getting back to work until later in the week so won't reply to any replies for a few days now.

Why is SSL so hard. We have developed an accounts backend web interface with uniGUI and would like to use SSL/HTTPS for public access (the right way to do things). We built this as a standalone EXE running on port 8077. letsencrypt.org offer free certificates but I can't get any of the ACME clients to work. The simplest to use is ZeroSSL web interface (I can generate a CSR and account/email key but then when I hit "next" it says "failed to retrieve resource directory" WTF). The ZeroSSL downloadable stand-alone executables are hideous command line programs, as are most of the other Windows downloads (ZeroSSL make this pretty web interface but can't make a nice Windows GUI?) Has anybody used letsencrypt.org? I realise at some point I will have to copy some files into a directory on my server (the one running on port 80) but I never even seem to get that far. Since I have wasted a day on this so far I think I'll just have to buy a certificate from godaddy as there is some help here about how to go about this (although it assumes you know what to do with the files).

Thanks, that other thread was "interesting" to read. The following looks better than AddJS: UniSession.UrlRedirect(EDT_Url.Text);

Never mind, I figured it out. I had to do File -> New -> Other -> uniGUI for Delphi -> Mobile Form -> Mobile Application MainForm And because I already had a unit named "Mainm" it wouldn't let me do it at first. PS. This should be moved to "uniGUI Mobile" I guess.

I created a little program with a log-in dialog and that works with normal desktop browser access. I enter a user name & password, click the button, verify it (just simple text check - no database backend) and it goes on to the main form if the password is accepted. I then added a mobile form & mobile login form but when I try to run it from my mobile (or from desktop with /m appended) the program raises an exception with "Application MainForm not found". I looked at the \Demos\Touch\Hybrid but it doesn't seem to be doing anything to make it work. I saw another forum post where someone said "it just works". That's however no help when it doesn't work. How does the framework know what form to use when its running for mobile?

What is the best way to go to a web page when you click an element? For example, it is common for a company logo to be displayed in a corner. In HTML you would just wrap a href around it. After extensive searching in the forum I found the following method, which does the job. Injecting JS in this way seems overkill but I guess is the only/best way? UniSession.AddJS('window.location.href="http://mycompany.com";');
