IIS7 http working but https not
Hello,
I've got a client with a windows server running SBS 2008. We setup exchange for them and everything was working great. I have remote access only, and was able to use OWA to test send/receive on all accounts. another tech was onsite and setup their outlook on the workstations to connect to the server. about a week later they requested we set it up so they can access their email via mobile devices. When I began the process I learned that in that time the server has stopped serving pages with "https"
http://localhost = iis7 default page
http://companyweb/ = <authentication prompt>
https://localhost = "Internet explorer cannot display the webpage"
https://localhost:987/ (sharepoint) = "Internet explorer cannot display the webpage"
http://sites/exchange = 403.4 error (forbidden, use https for ssl)
i checked what was listening on port 443, 80 and 987
cmd> netstat -o -n -a | findstr 0.0:<port>
TCP 0.0.0.0:443 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 4
TCP 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 4
TCP 0.0.0.0:987 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 4
PID 4 is the system process id
i rebooted server - no change
i restarted world wide web publishing service - no change
stopped sharepoint services - no change
I'm not sure what to check/try next. why isn't is responding to requests via https but http works fine?

I had confirmed that there was a valid certificate and that the site had a https binding, but i never confirmed that the binding had the certificate selected. Added the certificate to the binding, and viola!
thanks again!
