Windows 10: Unable to install SSL certificate in IIS Windows server 2012 R2

I have submitted my newly obtained SSL certificate from GoDaddy to the mmc under Personal > Certificate. I'm currently attempting to upload a certificate to IIS. Localhost -> Server Certificate -> Complete Certificate Request -> Okay. I can see my certificate, but the installed certificate is gone as soon as I push the refresh button.

Convert Windows Server 2012 R2 Evaluation to Windows Server 2012 R2

I have purchased the product key of Windows Server 2012 R2. Now the server is on Windows Server 2012 R2 Evaluation. I found a few links there they explained on how to convert from Windows Server 2012 R2 Evaluation to Windows Server 2012 R2 with valid product
key. One of the example is this link:

How to activate Windows Server 2012 R2 Evaluation - Nicolas Ignoto, CTP

Is this a correct way to do? If I follow this step, will my data be erased?

I want to avoid formatting/fresh Windows install because there are some software in the server that we do not know how to backup. We just want to get it activated now, backup will be sorted out later.

 

Windows Server 2012 R2 msxml 6 install.

Hi,

As Microsoft XML Parser and Microsoft XML Core Services (MSXML) 4.0 is detected, and it suggested me to upgrade it to msxml 6.0.

I didn't find the upgrade guide for Windows Server 2012 R2.

Can I uninstall the msxml 4.0 in "Program and Features", and then install 6.0?

Where is the msxml 6.0 install package for Windows Server 2012 R2?

Thanks,

Darcy

 

ASP .NET application hangs with IIS 8 and Windows server 2012 R2

Hello Microsoft Community ,

I have an issue that i can't identify it from where it's happening , so let me introduce the issue in bullet points format :

• Am deploying a .NET Framework application , separated into frontend and backend part into iis in a windows 2012 server .
  
• The frontend part is communicating with backend via API's ; ( the frontend part is built using eviromnement to refer the backend like http://myapp.domain.com/api ... ) , so everything was running smoothly
  
• I tried to migrate to HTTPS for the endpoints ; so i made a new frontend build ( Angular ) that points to https://myapp.domain.com/api ... of course with making successefully an SSL certificate to establish communication .
  
• The app is working smoothly , but suddenly , i see hangs , and exactly from from worker processes , and for the appropriate app pool for backend part , i see the accumlation of request and not connecting anymore , i can't get any response from the deployed backend any more , even seperately when using POSTMAN !
  
• The app can get back working only if i restart the server , note that The CPU is not full , and memory also ; so threads of the app can find place to continue and have place to be executed.
  

Am using iis 8 and windows server 2012 R2 , and i would be so gratefull , if i get clear explanation about the root cause , contributing to the hangs and stopping backend.
