Problem:

Need better error message than peer not authenticated when there is a SSL problem with CFHTTP.
Method:

<cfhttp url="https://app.zencoder.com/">
Result:

When you make a connection to an HTTPS  server using CFHTTP, if there is any sort of problem with the SSL you always get the same error "Peer not authenticated", there are actually a few different things that can cause this error, one of them being that the SSL Cert is not trusted, and needs to be imported, another possible issue is outlined here: http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/index.cfm/2011/1/12/Diagnosing-a-CFHTTP-issue--peer-not-authenticated while debugging had to create a SSL connection using java to get a better stack trace and that led to a better solution.Just an enhancement request, but I think it would be fairly easy to improve the exception results.
