Crystal Report runs with connection error with SSL enabled

[Former Member]

I have an application runs fine without SSL enabled.

However, once SSL is enabled on IIS 7, I got the following error "The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish relationship for SSL/TLS secure channel" whenever I run the Crystal Report.

I have created a self-signed certificate and configured the SSL port for the website hosted on IIS.

Furthermore, I have checked the 'Require SSL' in IIS' 'SSL Setting'.

The certificate I created is also under the 'trusted root certification authorities' category.

My machine is Windows 7 with SQL server 2008R2.

Not sure what is missing here.

Hi,

Basic info missing here like:

1) Version of CR and it's patch level.

2) .NET Framework used?

3) OS name, x86 or x64?

Thanks,

Saurabh

Thanks for the reply.

Below is the info you ask for...

1) It's Crystal Report 2008 runtime sp2.

2) .Net framework 3.5

3) The issue was reported on 64 bit machine. Our application has the x86 flag though. Not sure whether this has any effect on running crystal report though.

I wonder about the "self-signed certificate" .

Before we get to that, I do not think the 64 bit \ 32 bit is of much consequence here.

Is it possible that the self-signed cert or the host name between the certificate and the server do not line up \ match? Googling the error, I am not sure that it is that specific to Crystal Reports.

[This|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/703272/could-not-establish-trust-relationship-for-ssl-tls-secure-channel-soap] info may help(?).
