An error occurred in the secure channel support – Classic ASP HTTP Request

I have had the exact same problem after migrating from 2003 to 2008 R2 and found the solution. Change:

Set objhttp = Server.CreateObject ("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0")

to:

Set objhttp = Server.CreateObject ("MSXML2.XMLHTTP.6.0")

and your problem will go away.

I tried to find the pros and cons about both objects, but haven’t yet found a reason to not use XMLHTTP.
