Hi,

I'm using the latest version of CURL 7.29.0 under Mac OS X and Linux 64bit in C. I'm trying to fetch a resource from the following URL: http://www.comcertca.com/Repository/COMCERT%20Root/COMCERT%20Root.crl

Using wget shows that the ressource shows a HTTP302, the new location is https://www.comcertca.com/Repository/COMCERT%20Root/COMCERT%20Root.crl:

localhost:Downloads haraldlatzko$ wget "http://www.comcertca.com/Repository/COMCERT%20Root/COMCERT%20Root.crl"

Saving to: `COMCERT Root.crl.2'

CURL shows that a HTTP error 302 occurred (okay, this is correct), but using an older version (i.e. 7.20.0), the target is being retrieved in the moved target. I'm using the curl handle the following way:

            curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_ALL);
            curl_handle = curl_easy_init();
            curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle, CURLOPT_URL, url);
            curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle, CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS, 1);
            curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, 1);
            curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
            curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
            curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle, CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS, CURLPROTO_HTTP | CURLPROTO_HTTPS);

So I would expect that the target ressource would be retrieved successfully, but I'm receiveing an HTTP 302 return code. What am I doing wrong?

Regards,
Harald
