AD FS Service will not start on Windows Server 2012
I am configure AD FS on a Windows Server 2012 domain controller. I have created a domain account to run this service which has "log on a service" but the service will not start.
I get the following:
Error 1064: An exception occurred in the service when handling the control request.
I came accross this document, but do not quite understand if I am doing this correct:

I have created a third party cert called sts.domain.com and bound it to the default website 443

What happens if you rerun the config wizard? Does it show the cert there, are you able to select it?
From the description of this error and the article you found, seems that there is something wrong with the certificate. There are some CAs that issue free certs, like Comodo or startssl.com, get one free cert from them and test with it.
