We are in le process of moving a website depuis a machine avec Windows Server 2008 R2/IIS 7.5 to a machine avec Windows Server 2012/IIS 8.0 as we want to take advantage of le nouveau SNI feature.
This website has an SSL through Go-Daddy, so we went through leur site to re-key le SSL for this nouveau server et download le corresponding files et followed leur instructions found [here](http://support.godaddy.com/help/article/4801/installing-an-ssl-certificate-in-microsoft-iis-7) for IIS 7.0 depuis they ne have tout disponible for IIS 8.0.
The problem that we are experiencing is that quand we essayez de "Complete le Certificate Request" in IIS, it gives us an error message of `"Failed to Remove Certificate"`- we are pas sure what certificate it is trying to remove.
In comparing them to Microsoft's instructions found [here](http://www.iis.net/learn/get-started/whats-new-in-iis-8/iis-80-server-name-indication-sni-ssl-scalability), we noticed pendant le import process quand suivant Go-Daddy's instructions, it wants you to import le certificate into le "Intermediate Certification Authorities" directory qui alors places it in le Personal certificate store - mais Microsoft's instructions say to import le certificate into le nouveau Web Hosting certificate store. Not sure si this may be part of le issue...
***- UPDATE***
We thought maybe it was something to do avec le certificate GoDaddy was issuing so we bought a brand nouveau certificate for a différent website depuis Thawte - however we are encore getting le même error of "Failed to Remove Certificate".
Installation de SSL sur un serveur Windows Server 2012 avec IIS 8.0
Re: Installation de SSL sur un serveur Windows Server 2012 avec IIS 8.0
I ran into le même issue avec a GoDaddy SSL certificate on Windows 2012 / IIS 8. What worked in mon case, après getting le *"Failed to Remove Certificate"* error, was this:
- J'ai tried adding it again, this time getting an *"Access Denied"* error.
- J'ai aussi tried adding it to le "Personal" store à la place of "Web Hosting" mais même *"Access Denied"* error appeared
- so I went back to le Certificates snap-in using MMC et found le certificate was déjà there - under **Certificates (Local Computer) / Personal**
- Instead of doing le export/import thing that Scott suggested, I simply tried dragging le certificate down to **Certificates (Local Computer) / Web Hosting** node - and, surprisingly, it worked
- After doing le above, I went back to IIS Manager et was able to use le certificate in le site bindings right away
