Google Books API Cover images over HTTPS fails due to certificate error -
starting yesterday requests cover images via https began failing
err_insecure_response.
for example:
https://www.googleapis.com/books/v1/volumes/zarox10_usmc
when trying access https version of thumbnail:
in chrome returns response of net::err_cert_common_name_invalid
safari , firefox unable load resource due certificate error.
remove sub-sub-domain, or encryption:
- this encrypted version of image @
https://books.google.com
, and - this unencrypted version @
http://bk1.books.google.com
their certificate covers wildcard
.google.com not wildcard.wildcard
.google.com. speculating i'd guess bks1
1 of pool of servers behind books
.
