Loading...In the last post, I referenced a blog post by Dominick Baier about how to set up WCF over SSL. Following his instructions and copying his samples, I got an error when I tried to map the SSL certificate to the WCF service port using netsh http add sslcert. The error stated that “the parameter is incorrect”. I searched for that error on the internet and found lots of people having the same issue. I searched hours and hours and hours… until Thomas Stensitzki came along and noticed that I had one parameter followed by a colon instead of an equality sign!
This is what I originally used:
netsh http add sslcert ipport:0.0.0.0:4711 certhash=a1540c1ddecc36f9c30e9eb1bad655b63b5cbc03 appid={74B2A5EB-5FD8-4B89-A69F-E5D038D5E287}
Notice the colon behind ipport. THAT was my error. Of course, the above line has to look like this:
netsh http add sslcert ipport=0.0.0.0:4711 certhash=a1540c1ddecc36f9c30e9eb1bad655b63b5cbc03 appid={74B2A5EB-5FD8-4B89-A69F-E5D038D5E287}
By the way: I used Windows Sever 2008 R2
