On Windows Mobile using Ultralite 12.0.1.4183 in .Net CF 3.5 I'm trying to synch using https with a trusted certificate.

First I tried without the trusted certificate I got the 24 error code. Then I tried using the browser to mark it as trusted as indicated in the docmentation for trusted_certificate in the 2nd bullet point. I still got the 24. I then tried using trusted_certificate as below but got the "The option 'trusted_certificate' is not recognized" error message.

host={0};port={1};timeout=60;trusted_certificate=rsaroot.crt;

I'm not sure what else I need to do.

Looks like a documentation bug.

There's an 's' on the parameter name: trusted_certificates.

As a follow-up I've never had to add the certificates before so can you confirm what is in the file. I tried using the certificate from the server which it seemed to like but this caused me to still get the 24 error.

The certificate should be the (public) root certificate of the top-level certificate authority.

See: http://sqlanywhere-forum.sap.com/questions/19138/what-impact-will-the-switch-to-openssl-have-on-sql-anywhere-strong-encryption

for more details. Also see KBA 2134354 - Error: "TLS handshake failure" or "Server certificate not trusted" after upgrading to a higher support package of SQL Anywhere 12 or SQL Anywhere 16.

The trusted certificate is expected to be in PKCS #8, PEM format:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- ... -----END CERTIFICATE-----

The option name should be trusted_certificates, and not trusted_certificate.
