I'll Try again

[Anton Federkiewicz]

I have implimented SSL on a project server. Asside from the not trusted
certificate dialog problem that I can't seem to get rid of PWA works. The
problem is with Project Pro. When trying to connect to the
https://server/ProjectServer page the non trusted certificate dialog comes up
then when that is "yes"ed through the application fails to connect. Any
hints? Please?

Anton,

I assume you've set the SSL URL as a trusted site in IE and made sure to include the protocol (https)?

And also made the matching/appropriate changes in the project server accounts settings?

If you distribute the root certificate to the clients and make sure the
clients add that certificate to "trusted root certification authorities",
you'll get rid of the non-trusted dialog - as a bonus you'll cut out the
(sometimes up to 1 minute long) time-out when that authority is being
resolved on the client.
I assume you've created the certificate yourself, and then you'll find that
root cert on the certificate server.

I set them to https in Server configuration on the PS, enabled it in IIS per
the admin guide and also enabled Basic Authentication on the site concerned
as well as the msadcs.dll. The https site is a trusted site on the clients.

Anton,

I don't believe you want to use basic auth. You should be setting this to use integrated windows authentication, in IIS on the project server machine.
