Specifying the SSL Certificate for a Web Site
Project:This information applies to the following project types:
A server certificate enables users to authenticate your Web server, check the validity of the Web content, and establish a secure connection. InstallShield lets you include a server certificate for a Web site in your installation so that it can be installed at run time.
To specify a SSL certificate that should be installed for a Web site:
|
1.
|
In the View List under Server Configuration, click Internet Information Services. |
|
2.
|
In the Web Sites explorer, select the Web site whose SSL certificate you want to specify. |
|
3.
|
For the SSL Certificate setting, click the ellipsis button (...). The Open dialog box opens. |
|
4.
|
Select the security certificate file (.cer or .pfx) that you want to be installed, and then click Open. |
|
5.
|
If the certificate requires a password, specify it for the SSL Certificate Password setting. |
InstallShield stores the .cer file in the Binary table. At run time, when the installation installs the Web site and its virtual directories, it also installs the SSL certificate.
