Certificate Validation Configuration

By default, irAuthor and irCatalogManager will not connect to a catalog when there is an invalid certificate. In addition, irAuthor will not import window service WSDLs without a valid certificate.

For development purposes, there is an option to configure to ignore SSL certification by setting ignore to true in the irAuthor.exe.config or irCatalogManager.exe.config with the following settings:

<inrule.repository>

    <certificateValidation ignore="true" />

</inrule.repository>

or by adding the following to appSettings

<add key="inrule:repository:certificateValidation:ignore" value="true" />

This value defaults to false so certificate validation will happen by default. The appSetting will be used if it is found, otherwise it will check the <inrule.repository> config section.
