title: Getting XMLHTTP to work with HTTPS
body: <p>I'm trying to access a soap webservice via classic asp over https, but I get the following error.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>MSXML3.DLL error '800c000e'<br>
    A security problem occurred.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>My code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Function GetASPNetResources()    
  
  Dim returnString 
  Dim myXML 
  Dim objRequest 
  Dim objXMLDoc
  Dim strXmlToSend
  Dim webserviceurl
  Dim webserviceSOAPActionNameSpace
  
  strXmlToSend = "&lt;some valid xml&gt;"
  webserviceurl = "https://webserviceurl"
  webserviceSOAPActionNameSpace = "appname"
  
  Set objRequest = Server.createobject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0")
  objRequest.open "POST", webserviceurl, False
  
  objRequest.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/soap+xml"
  objRequest.setRequestHeader "CharSet", "utf-8"
  objRequest.setRequestHeader "action", webserviceSOAPActionNameSpace &amp; "GetEstimate"
  objRequest.setRequestHeader "SOAPAction", webserviceSOAPActionNameSpace &amp; "GetEstimate"
  
  Set objXMLDoc = Server.createobject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.3.0")
  
  objXMLDoc.loadXml strXmlToSend
  
  objRequest.Send() 
  
  Response.Write  objXMLDoc.load(objRequest.responseXML)
  
  End Function
