Hi,

I have deployed a website on a windows server 2008 machine and implemented the SSL as well. Have published the certificate and imported in the client machines as well. Everything was going smooth till last friday. All of a sudden I'm not able to access the web site from some client machines. It was throwing the error page "Internet Explorer can not display the page you have requested".

I googled a lot and tried different solutions provided by various people. Unfortunately, it didn't helped me.

Can anyone help me on this?

Some of the solutions I tried are
1. Reinstalling IE 7 in the client machines
2. Disabling the firewall
3. Removing the Addons
4. Clearing DNS cache
5. Clearing the SSL State
and so on.

FI, I'm using the Windows XP on the client side and IE 7 is the browser.

Thanks in advance,

Nageswar

So we're talking about a self-signed certificate?
And it has been installed on all of the clients?

Yes. Have installed the Self Signed certificate on all client machines.

Try using Firefox or Chrome to see if it is a connection thing or an IE thing.

My application should run only on the IE.

Hi.
If you're going out your LAN via Proxy, may a Proxy Rule is guilty, and you don't receive a 503 Proxy error cause it may use a XML Proxy and negotiation is delegated in that piece. If you don't use proxy, the problem can be at server or client side.
I recommend you to use Paros Proxy (Open Source) to look into HTTP header and see what's going on and tell us...
