IIS 8 HTTPS / Require SSL Causes a Timeout Error

An attempt was made to publish a website through IIS 8 over SSL, but a time error occurred. Any help is appreciated.

Steps taken:

  • Checked that the website can be visited via HTTP ( http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx works - use the IP address at the moment, if that matters)
  • IIS> Server Certificate> Create a self-signed certificate, enter = Hosting
  • IIS> Default Web Site> Bindings> HTTPS = 443, Host Name = <blank> , Certificate = <The one from the previous step>
  • IIS> SSL Settings> Require SSL = Verified, Client Certificate = Ignore
  • IIS> Default Web Site> Permissions> Ensure IIS_IUSRS Have Read / Execute / List Permissions
  • IIS> Default Web Site> Reboot

Result:

  • HTTPS requests from clients ( https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ) return the error "This webpage is not available" / ERR _CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT (Chrome) or "This page does not appear" (IE)

  • HTTPS requests from the server itself ( https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ) return the same error as above

  • An HTTPS request using localhost from the server itself ( https://localhost ) succeeds after receiving certificate warnings

Thanks in advance for your help.

Check port 443 on the host. By default, this port is closed for some hosting providers. For example, in Amazon EC2, you must change the Security Group settings to add HTTPS.
