For iOS 7.1, when you try to do an OTA install which has an http link to the .plist file, you will get this error: ‘Cannot install applications because the certificate for com.test.com is not valid’ then I have a found ios 7.1 cannot use http anymore.Need to change http to https

like example

itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=http://www.test.com/OTA_App_Name.plist

to 

itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=https://www.test.com/OTA_App_Name.plist

After i change it still got error "unable to connect www.test.com".I have check all my plist details is correct link.Any Idea?Did i need to set https certificate also?How?

iOS requires a certificate it can verify. Maybe you are using a self-sign certificates, these don't work. You can, however, use wildcard certificates, if that helps you in any way.

We just had this same issue recently. You have to change the link as you did, but you must also resave the plist. When you archive and distribute for ad/hoc enterprise, you have to enter the app url. enter https://www.test.com/OTA_App_Name.ipa. That fixed it for us, no cert magic.
