Certificate is not enough: you need to properly configure HTTP server, but this is if you host HTTP server on your computer and you have a full access to it. If this is done through some hosting provider, you need to ask their customer service.

Also, strictly speaking, using certificate authority is not required: you can use self-issues certificate, but it is a problem with the trust of the user. If all your user can trust your certificate (for example, they work in your company which have its own certificate distribution organization (or you can create one), or all users just know you personally), it's fine.

You should understand that certification has nothing to do with encryption provided by your HTTPS based service. Certification is used only on the first step when the user is vulnerable to the spoofing. The user needs to exclude the possibility that the site is authentic.

I guess i have configure HTTP server properly so that only its working in the same system (ie) if i request a https://sample.com in browser its working.

if i request a https://sample.com on a browser in diffrent system that gives error message as could not load the page or request timed out

I cannot be sure. What is one system and what is "other" system?

(ie) Its working in the system or server where iis7 is installed.

Let me make sure I understand: you execute Web browser on the system where HTTP server installed and HTTPS resource loads? And not if you run a browser on another host? Inside same local network or not? No matter, is, so, you cannot say "configure HTTP server properly". However, it could be firewall, some network setting... can you serve up anything at all so you could connect from another computer and load the resource, at least HTTP?

Anyway, you need to provide a lot more of a lot more accurate information... you say next to nothing; how can you hope for resolution?
