OCSP missing in IIS 8.5 RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hi Guys,

    I am building a new CA infrastructure, on 2012 R2, but I'm having a little trouble configuring my OCSP server.

    The server has IIS installed already, and is hosting the CDPs, I insatlled the Online Responder role, configured it etc...

    The issue I have is that there is no OCSP virtual directory in IIS, everywhere I look says it should be created automatically when I install the Online Responder role, and I can't find any guides for how to configure it manually.

    Eventually I plan to move OCSP onto a highly available shared IIS farm, but I just wanted to get it working on a standalone server first.

    All CAs and the IIS server are 2012 R2.

    Thanks,

    Joel

  • There should be an application under default web site. You can restore it by running the following command on IIS server:

    certutil -vocsproot

  • OCSP is not a virtual directory, it is an ISAPI extension. If you run pkiview.msc on the server you should be able to iterate your PKI and see if the OCSP is properly defined and working correctly.

  • Thanks Vadims, That worked perfectly.

    Any recommendations in relation to hosting on a shared IIS Farm (With Shared Config)?
