Cannot configure HTTPS

mircea — Mon, 04 Jul 2022 18:17:50 GMT

Hello,

I am trying to configure HTTPS on our on-premises Report Server but once I chose the certificate the URL looks like this:

https://+:443/ReportServer

Weird... what would be the reason?

Regards.

Either you have not configured properly or the file is corrupted.

rsreportserver.config

Take a backup, and keep it. Before doing any changes.

Steps to Fix Enable site system roles for HTTPS or Enhanced HTTP warning

1.HTTPS or Enhanced HTTP are not enabled for client communication – When I viewed the Communication Security tab of my site properties, the communication method was set to HTTPS or HTTP. Microsoft either wants you to select HTTPS only or Enhanced HTTP.

2.HTTP-only communication is deprecated and support will be removed in a future version of Configuration Manager – This is a change introduced in SCCM 2103 and going forward this will apply to all the Configuration Manager current branch releases.

3.Enable a more secure communication method for the site either by enabling HTTPS or Enhanced HTTP – To fix this warning, select HTTPS only or enhanced HTTP. If you have PKI certificates for SCCM, select HTTPS only. Other wise select Use Configuration Manager generated certificates for HTTP site systems.

Greeting,

Rachel Gomez

Thank you Rachel for your assistance with this matter!

I had to modify the configuration file as described in this KB article:
