SSL on IIS 5

by ratherbfishing . Updated 25 years ago

I recently enabled SSL on an internal web site to do some testing. I installed Certificate Services on the same server, and then in the IIS wizard for the site, I selected use an existing certificate, and used the one that was installed on the server when Certificate Services was setup.

I set the SSL port to 443. I did not select to use 128 bit encryption.

The problem is that with SSL enabled, the website reports it can’t find the requested page. I tested by using http:, and got the message that it is a secured site. I used https: and got the “entering a secured site” pop-up message, but then got the “Can’t find requested page” error. If I disbale SSL, then it works fine again.

I am using Explorer 5.5 as web browser. I made sure that in the Internet Options it is set to use SSL 2 and 3.

Any ideas why with SSL I cannot access the pages? I must be missing something here!

Thanks
