I am trying to test a very simple cfhttp request on my server.

<cfhttp 
    result="result"
    method="GET"
    charset="utf-8"
    url="https://jessicaharbydotcom.tumblr.com/"
>
</cfhttp>
<cfdump var="#result#">

When I execute this I get the following response:

struct
Charset [empty string]
ErrorDetail I/O Exception: peer not authenticated
Filecontent Connection Failure
Header  [empty string]
Mimetype    Unable to determine MIME type of file.
Responseheader  
struct [empty]
Statuscode  Connection Failure. Status code unavailable.
Text    YES

(image attached which is a little clearer)

It works when running from here: https://trycf.com/ (I am trying to register and/or reset my password as I am sure I have used this service in the past) but here is a screendump showing the result

The default setup for trycf.com seems to be Lucee 5 (I think my server is running ColdFusion9) but I also tried setting it to ColdFusion10 in the dropdown.

Is it possible the trycf.com site is using a proxy, and/or setting headers or other params (although this would seem like a stupid thing to do as it doesn’t replicate what the code should be doing, show correct error handling).

Any help much appreciated.
