IIS 7.5 Hosting UK - HostForLIFE.eu :: How to Enable HTTPS on IIS ?

clock January 27, 2015 07:35 by author Peter

First, you may have to be compelled to purchase a 2048-bit SSL certificate(s) and configure IIS. you'll got to purchase a multi-domain or wildcard certificate based mostly upon your wants. There are free certificates obtainable for bloggers and non-commercial organizations.

Create certificate request file
First we want to create a certificate request file. Once making the certificate request, we'll copy/paste the contents of the certificate request file into the SSL provider web site. Once their verification we'll be ready to download the resulting SSL certificate files.

Create Certificate Request
On the primary screen of the wizard you may have to be compelled to give the details for your organization. The important part is to specify the Common name as your fully qualified domain name (FQDN) — together with appropriate subdomain. Here i'm simply using “www.example.com”.

Next, make certain to specify the bit length of your certificate to 2048. supported todays standards, this is often the length to decide on. Any shorter isn't secure enough, and any further isn't necessary and can produce unnecessary cpu cycles on your server.

The next step is to specify the file name for the certificate request file. I store all of my SSL certificates and associated files in folder on the C drive: C:\ssl. Then, merely click the finish button.

We will currently open up the resulting .txt file and copy and paste the contents into the SSL provider’s web site. however and wherever you do this can rely on the SSL provider you selected.

Install certificate in IIS
Once you have got completed the certificate signing request, your SSL supplier can notify you once the SSL certificate is prepared and accessible for you to transfer. After downloading the SSL certificate file (csr), complete the certificate request in IIS.

To complete the certificate request, choose the SSL certificate file (crt) and enter the Friendly name. The friendly name is for you to understand that SSL certificate is that in IIS. For best practices, I continuously name these to match the absolutely qualified domain name.

Add HTTPS Binding
The last step is to bind our web site in IIS to the HTTPS port (443). Note that the common name (FQDN) for the certificate should match the host name for the location that you just are configuring.  To get started right click on the site in IIS and choose Edit Bindings.

Then click the Add… button to add a replacement binding. we'll choose https because the kind, the suitable IP address on the server to bind the web site to, then choose the SSL certificate file and click on OK. you're now serving the web site using HTTPS. move and open your browser and enter the full domain with the https:// protocol specification to look at the location a new HTTPS.

IIS 7.5 Hosting UK - HostForLIFE.eu :: How to Fix NetworkService Account Not GZIPing IIS Responses ?

clock January 14, 2015 06:43 by author Peter

After following several posts and tutorials on properly fixing IIS dynamic compression for JSON responses, i used to be still reaching a dead finish. For no matter reason, my responses were still uncompressed. Apparently, using the NetworkService account doesn’t perpetually play nicely with static or dynamic content compression.

The NetworkService account doesn’t have permission to the IIS Temporary Compressed Files folder, preventing it from writing and reading out compressed streams. The best thanks to get around this can be by adding the NetworkService account to the IIS_IUSRS group (which already has permissions to the IIS temporary folder).

1. First step, Open the local Users and groups management console.

2. Next, Select Groups from the sidebar.

3. Now, open the IIS_IUSRS property window.

4. Click Add, then enter Network Service as the user. Make sure to have your nearby workstation as the area, then Check Names to make certain you entered everything effectively. Click OK.

5. Next, Click OK on the IIS_IUSRS property window.

6. Close the Local Users and Groups management console
7. Restart IIS

Dynamic compression should be working now!

%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\SetupCache\Client\setup.exe /repair /x86 /x64 /ia64 /parameterfolder Client /q /norestart

For silent repair on 64 bit computer with .Net Framework version 4.0.30319 use:

IIS 7.5 Hosting Italy - HostForLIFE.eu :: How to Fix Error Lock Violation on deleting Modules at Website level in IIS

clock January 7, 2015 05:04 by author Peter

Today while taking a shot at vista IIS 7.5 and I was attempting to erase one of module named as CustomErrorModule for Default Web Site and quick I was informed with this decent lapse.

Also this appear to be occurring just with Modules which are recorded as Native. I had the capacity erase Managed module without any problem.nothing was accounted for under framework & application occasion viewer logs. Arrangement was to go at Root level Modules designs and select the required native module and Unlock it.

The  IIS 7.5 Native Modules seem to be locked by default and same would be valid incase of appcmd tool.

C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv>appcmd unlock config /section:httpErrors
Unlocked section "system.webServer/httpErrors" at configuration path "MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST".


Happy Coding!
