Protx - SagePay URL switch today - Old URL's DO NOT work anymore due to forwarding failure

NOTE: It looks like this problem may only affect Coldfusion and Java.

Protx have just switched over to the new SagePay URL's today on LIVE and unfortunately the old URL's have broken. This was not supposed to happen and the old URL's should have continued for the forseeable future.

SagePay are telling developers to update all sites to the new URL system.

I can't imagine how many orders are being lost this morning.

Get your URL's updated ASAP, full details here:

As far as I've been able to determine, the problem is caused by ColdFusion (and probably Java)'s inability to handle SAN Certificates - "Subject Alternative Names".

Firefox 3 has a similar problem I think, or sagepay have configured their certificates incorrectly.

I didn't know that about CF / Java, although I think this is different.

We were told this morning by SagePay support that the redirection that was designed to allow the old URL's to continue functioning was essentially broken and wouldn't be fixed. They said we had to update to the new *.sagepay.com URL's to keep taking payments.
