Creating a server certificate on Windows Server
1 From Control Panel, select Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services
The Internet Information Services window open.
2 Go to the website through which users will access UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server. Right-click the website name, and then click Properties.
The Web Site Properties dialog opens.
3 On the Directory Security tab, click Server Certificate.
The IIS Certificate wizard opens.
4 On the Welcome page, click Next.
5 On the Server Certificate page, select Create a new certificate, and then click Next.
6 On the Delayed or Immediate Request page, click Prepare the request now, but send it later and click Next.
7 On the Name and Security Settings page, enter the name of your website. (You can enter any name you like here, but it is a good idea to enter a name that can be recognized later.) Click Next.
8 On the Organization Information page, enter a name of your choice in both fields and then click Next.
9 The Your Site's Common Name page should show the correct computer name for the chosen website, so click Next to continue.
10 On the Geographical Information page, complete the fields as appropriate.
11 Click Next on all other pages until you reach the end of the wizard. Then click Finish to return to the Web Site Properties dialog.
12 In the Secure communications frame, click Edit.
The Secure Communications dialog opens.
13 Select Require secure channel (SSL), and then click OK.
14 Close IIS.
15 The certificate used for SSL must be trusted on the local computer. To check this, do the following:
Open Internet Explorer, and then click Tools > Internet Options
On the Content tab, click Certificates.
On the Certificates dialog, select the Trusted Root Certification Authorities tab and check that the certificate for SSL appears in the list.
If the certificate does not appear in the list, click Import to run the Certificate Import wizard which will add the certificate to the list.
Close Internet Explorer.
16 Follow the instructions in Canceling the requirement for mrIEngWS to use a secure channel.
17 If your SSL certificate is assigned to a fully qualified domain name, change the value of the LocalImageCacheURL setting in the Web Service's Web.config file so that it uses the fully qualified domain name. On all computers running the Web Service, do this:
Go to:
[INSTALL_FOLDER]\IBM\SPSS\DataCollection\7\Interviewer Server\Server\mrIWeb
Open the Web.config file using Visual Studio or a text editor.
Change the entry for LocalImageCache so that it reads something like:
<add key="LocalImageCacheURL" value="https://www.FQDomainName.com/SPSSMR/ImageCache/ImageCache.aspx"/>
18 Save the file, and then close it.
