PowerBI - Unable to configure https

    • SQL Server 2019 on Windows Core 2019
    • New PowerBI installation
    • No current SSL or port 443 users

    Screenshot 2022-01-13 082005

    However, when I try to configure HTTPS in the Report Server Configuration Manager, I get the error:

    Also not sure why the "url was unexpectedly reserved" :-/

    After this error, the following *has* been added to the "reportserver.config" file though:

    And port 443 is flagged as in use but still there is no SSL:

    Can anyone advise why the HTTP certificate binding is failing in this scenario?

    Thanks.

     

    Additional information: This always occurs when I try to enable HTTPS:

    Currently I have the following in PowerBI rsreportserver.config

    <URLReservations>
    <Application>
    <Name>ReportServerWebService</Name>
    <VirtualDirectory>ReportServer</VirtualDirectory>
    <URLs>
    <URL>
    <UrlString>https://+:443</UrlString>
    <AccountSid>....../AccountSid>
    <AccountName>NT SERVICE\PowerBIReportServer</AccountName>
    </URL>
    </URLs>
    </Application>
    <Application>
    <Name>ReportServerWebApp</Name>
    <VirtualDirectory>Reports</VirtualDirectory>
    <URLs>
    <URL>
    <UrlString>https://+:443</UrlString>
    <AccountSid>........</AccountSid>
    <AccountName>NT SERVICE\PowerBIReportServer</AccountName>

    </URLReservations>
  • You may also try configure HTTP first and then switch to https

  • Hi Jo.

    HTTP works fine and I've configured all my reports, subscriptions, etc. without issue. It's only when trying to enable HTTPS that I hit a problem.

    I've also attached a screenshot to the original post for an Audit Failure which always coincides with trying to do this - which might point to a permissions issue?

    Thanks.

  • Looks like this was caused by an invalid certificate. No idea what was wrong with it but applying a newly-created certificate worked without issue.

  • Glad it sorted out!
