Problem connecting to https:\\[servername]\administrator

After a reboot i cant connec to my view connect server. I run view 5.1

Netstat show that the server isn't listening to port 443. I think this has something to do with certs. a while ago I tried to add a wildcard cert from rapid ssl to the server - useing commonname vmd - I've removed this from the cert store  - because it didn't work.

Is there a way to remake selfsigned certs for 5.1 ? Or do you guys have any other ways to debug / fix this ?

Have you opened port 443 on Windows firewall?

Contacted support - they told me to uninstall the connection broker software and reinstall it to recreate the certs.

If you do this - DON'T uninstall the  AD LDS software - and when reinstalling the broker - use the existing AD LDS installation.

I didn't want to suggets reinstalling the View Connection Server as it seems such a kop out.

Good tip about the LDS database though.
