I have an SBS 2011 Essentials server with the following IIS configuration:

I get the following error when trying to connect to http://servername:65510/connect. Picture).

I was getting a 404 error when I realized that the virtual directory "connect" was missing and I reestablished it. I know just enough IIS to get myself in trouble. I do not have a backup of IIS but I do have Windows Server Backups (bare metal images) going back months.
Thanks in advance.

The answer is that there is no virtual connect directory under the WSS Certificate Web Server.

All the bindings for 65510 and 65515 should be done in the Default Web Site.

Microsoft fixed it for $546.00 in one hour.

Hi Susan,

Did you install any third-party application or update recently? Just a confirmation, thanks for your understanding.

On current situation, please run SBS BPA tool and check if find some issues. Please also use the Configuration Troubleshooter tool that Robert created to check IIS and certificate.

In addition, did you open Event Viewer and check if find any event? Please also check relevant log files if find more clues.

If any update, please feel free to let me know.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Justin Gu

Another random 404 error with SBS virtual directories, what anti-virus are you guys using? After a quick Google Trend has apparently caused issues.

Hi Susan,

You followed the correct process to create the Connect VD. Just wanted to ask what was the path set in the Connect VD?

We have a Dell Sonic Firewall that does not download anti-virus to the server. I appreciate your help.

I had already been to this website. The ISAPI-dll was already disabled on my system. There was no CGI.exe to disable. Is that the problem?

Which AppPool is the /Connect Virtual Directory pointing to?

Can you also run the following commands in PowerShell:

(Get-ItemProperty "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows Server\IDENTITY").CAName
(Get-ItemProperty "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows Server\IDENTITY").ServerName

(Get-ItemProperty "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows Server\IDENTITY").LocalMachineCert
(Get-ChildItem cert:\LocalMachine\My | where { $_.Subject -eq "CN=$env:COMPUTERNAME" }).Thumbprint

Post back the results.

Here are the powershell results:

1. Coreserver-CA

2. Coreserver

3. 4AD40C8D0A60F83BB6966D6C827C0AE151E4555F

4. When I substitute Coreserver for COMPUTERNAME, it does not return any value or string.

How do I verify which AppPool is the /Connect VD pointing to?

Thanks again.
