Question:

Is it compulsory to setup Application Center with SSL cert (e.g. startssl.com) when downloading iOS app?

What have I tried:

1st Try:

1) I didn't configure SSL cert and try to download the ios app using http and https link. (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:9080/applicationcenter/installers.html and https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:9443/applicationcenter/installers.html)

2) Major setting in mfp server.xml, 

<featureManager>
  <feature>ssl-1.0</feature>
</featureManager>

<httpEndpoint id="defaultHttpEndpoint” host="*" httpPort="9080” httpsPort="9443" >


<keyStore id="defaultKeyStore" password="worklight" />

Result/Issue

Http: enter image description here

Https: enter image description here

2nd Try:

1) Import .p12 generated in startssl.com

2) And follow this guide to setup the necessary configuration: http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSHS8R_7.1.0/com.ibm.worklight.installconfig.doc/appcenter/t_ac_ssl_lib.html

Result/Issue

Couldn't connect to the https server after configuring server.xml and restarting the mfp server

For iOS, TLS 1.2 is required on the server, yes.
See here: http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSHS8R_7.1.0/com.ibm.worklight.installconfig.doc/appcenter/c_ac_ssl_config.html

You can configure the Application Center with SSL or without SSL, unless you intend to install applications on iOS devices. For iOS applications, you must configure the Application Center server with SSL and enable the TLS v1.2 protocol.
