IIS 7.x，添加启用HTTPS的站点：SiteCollection.Add（string，string，string，byte []）重载

Question

I need to programatically add an IIS 7.x site and I got stuck when this should be created with a HTTPS/SSL binding by default, usig SiteCollection.Add(string, string, string, byte[]) overload .

Giving https:*:80:test.localhost https:*:443:test.localhost as bindingInformation throws an ArgumentException with this message: The specified HTTPS binding is invalid.

What's wrong in this binding information?

Thank you.

EDIT : I'm using Microsoft.Web.Administration assembly.

Answer 1

Here is what I did to create https site and it worked. I skip some parts of code here, of course.

using Microsoft.Web.Administration
...
using(var manager = new ServerManager())
{
    // variables are set in advance...
    var site = manager.Sites.Add(siteName, siteFolder, siteConfig.Port);

    var store = new X509Store(StoreName.AuthRoot, StoreLocation.LocalMachine);
    store.Open(OpenFlags.OpenExistingOnly | OpenFlags.ReadWrite);

    // certHash is my certificate's hash, byte[]
    var binding = site.Bindings.Add("*:443:", certHash, store.Name);
    binding.Protocol = "https";

    store.Close();

    site.ApplicationDefaults.EnabledProtocols = "http,https";

    manager.CommitChanges();
}

UPD: the certificate is created from a pfx file the following way:

// get certificate from the file
string pfx = Directory.GetFiles(folder, "*.pfx", SearchOption.AllDirectories).FirstOrDefault();
var store = new X509Store(StoreName.Root, StoreLocation.LocalMachine);
store.Open(OpenFlags.OpenExistingOnly | OpenFlags.ReadWrite);

var certificate = new X509Certificate2(pfx, certPassword, X509KeyStorageFlags.Exportable | X509KeyStorageFlags.PersistKeySet);
store.Add(certificate);
store.Close();
certHash = certificate.GetCertHash();

As far as I can see BindingInformation is without the protocol:

The value of this property is a colon-delimited string that includes the IP address, port, and host name of the binding.

There is also a overload of that takes a parameter BindingProtocol:

public Site Add(
    string name,
    string bindingProtocol,
    string bindingInformation,
    string physicalPath
)

Maybe you should use the Binding object offered by the Site instance as is offers more settings than the SiteCollection instance.
