IIS - SSL certificate for OWA - Asked By Rashid Iqbal on 02-Jul-10 11:09 AM

I install the ssl certificate for OWA[Exchange 2003 server]

but getting the error in IE that :

the page cannot be displayed.

Rashid, Is your OWA working fine without SSL? I mean via http://exchangeserver/

Make sure that you have checked  Require Secure Channel (SSL) and Require 128-bit encryption boxes under default configuration.

Some advanced detailed are available at http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/SSL_Enabling_OWA_2003.html

Hope this helps.

I revert back to my previous snapshot in vmware.

after that I update the Windows service pack 2 then install the exchange server 2003 then install the exchange SP2
after doing all this I adopt the same procedure for SSL certificate and assign the 128 bit encryption.

BUT GETTING THE SAME PROBLEM.
