I am unaware how to resolve this issue, Do I need to something for the cg.https_keysize to return some value.?

I'm confused by this
"I have this application running on IIS , but its not https in the URL.

CGI variables are only valid for the current request. If it's not https in the url, you won't get an https_keysize value.

Thank you for your input SidFishes . This code was running on some server, before it came to me. Yes, previously they had https: in the URL. Can you please let me know how to get the Https in the URL on this Current server.
