How to configure Commvault Reporting to use HTTPS instead of HTTP ?

@Stuart Painter :

Iam able to configure my reporting over HTTPS following this documentation but the problem is that my web-console and command center stopped working .

Hi @Mohit Chordia 

I have responded to your support case (thanks for PM with the details).

It looks like you have successfully configured IIS and the Web Service to use HTTPS and port 443.
That means System Process ID 4 is probably bound to port 443, which would be confirmed by running command:
netstat -anob | find /i ":443"
 
However, since the Web Service is now using HTTPS port 443, that means Tomcat and the Web Console / Command Center can no longer start up and bind to this port.
This is indicated because when you request https://server/webconsole/ address you are receiving a 404 - File not found error from IIS (as seen in your screenshot above) - not from Tomcat which has a different format for 404 errors.

Since you have 2 competing services both trying to use HTTPS port 443 and by the looks of things, co-existing on the same server, you will need to reconfigure one of these services to use a different tcp port.

I suggest you move IIS Web Service to another port as web browsers will expect Web Console and Command Center to use HTTPS port 443.
 
Try reconfiguring Web Service and IIS to use an alternative port such as 8443.

You will need to update the baseUrl setting in the registry to reflect the new port assignment and the other additional settings from Configuring Secured Access on a Web Service with the relevant port.

Thanks,
