The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.

[Alex]

I set my app to proxy traffic through fiddler by adding the following in web.config

  <system.net>

    <defaultProxy enabled="true">
      <proxy proxyaddress="http://127.0.0.1:8888" />
    </defaultProxy>
  </system.net>

As soon as I've done that, I get the following error

The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation

...specifically on a connection to windows azure service bus - but don't think that's relevant to this question

 

I've re-generated the certs, exported root cert, trusted it etc...

Just can't get past this error!

Hello,

It seems that your application does not trust Fiddler's root certificate. Do you get the same result if you let your app to use the system proxy settings? This is done by specifying the following in your app.config:

<system.net>
  <defaultProxy enabled="true">
    <proxy usesystemdefault="true"/>
  </defaultProxy>
</system.net>

Also, you said "specifically on a connection to windows azure service bus". Does this mean that connections to other servers does not have this problem? Also, when you navigate some HTTPS site with the browser, do you get any "not secure website" messages?
