I have a problem with HTTP call using custom certificate for http client. Example:

try
{
    var handler = new HttpClientHandler();
    //download certificate from https://api.alfabank.ru/sites/api.alfabank.ru/files/u1/apidevelopers.cert.pem
    var path = Path.Combine(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory, "apidevelopers.cert.pem");

    handler.ClientCertificates.Add(new X509Certificate2(path));

    using (var httpClient = new HttpClient(handler))
    {
        var response =
            await httpClient.GetAsync(
                "https://apiws.alfabank.ru");

        Console.WriteLine(response.StatusCode);
    }
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
    Console.WriteLine(ex.StackTrace);

    if (ex.InnerException != null)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(ex.InnerException.Message);
        Console.WriteLine(ex.InnerException.StackTrace);
    }
}

An error occurred is:

Some details: this error occurred only on netcoreapp2.1. This code works fine on net472 platform.

Also I tried to run this code under docker on linux and catched a little more detailed error:

Could anyone explain those errors and how fix it?

  • Have you checked https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36370656/solving-sslv3-alert-handshake-failure-when-trying-to-use-a-client-certificate? – Aman B Nov 21 '18 at 17:27
  • I could not recreate a cert that i use, i only have a publick key. My main question is why net472 work as well but netcoreapp2.1 throws exception. Anyway thx for link. – Vitaliy Nov 21 '18 at 19:16
