Using Curl to login to salesforce bulk api

Hello all,

 

I'm following the guide at: 

http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api_asynchpre/api_bulk.pdf

and trying to login to salesforce using Curl on a Win-32 machine.

At first I received errors about missing .dlls , so I placed the openssl .dlls in the "System-32" folder, but now I still can't login.

 

Each time I try to login I use the following command:

 

curl https://login.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/22.0 -H "Content-Type: text/xml;charset=UTF-8" -H SOAPAction: login" -d @login.txt

 

and get the following error message:

 

"curl: (60) SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK.

Details:error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed"

 

What went wrong? Is there something else I should install or am I not loging in correctly?

You're missing the certs that are used to validate the salesforce.com servers. You can add --insecure to your parameters to ignore this error, or you can read the documentation on how to add CA certs.

Thanks for quick reply!

 

I tried adding certificates downloaded from the setup pages in salesforce.com, but still got the same error.

I also tried logging in insecurly, but that failed too.

I think there might be a problem with my instalation of "Openssl" or I'm not using the correct certificates...

 

If you could please specify where to download and how to use a CA cert that worked for you, it would be awesome :)

Thanks!

I'm working on the tutorial too.

 

I get an error message that complains it can't read the file.

 

Warning: Couldn't read data from file "login.txt", this makes an empty POST.

 

I have a mac and have placed the file in my user directory is this correct ? or is there something i mssing.

 

Thanks in advance.
