WCF Service over SSL Could not establish secure channel for SSL/TLS with authority 'test-service.hostname.com'

3

I am having an issue. We are trying to attach a client certifacte to a WCF service over SSL required. When I try to navigate to the service through a browser it will show me the 'You have created a service page' but only if I attach the certificate, So I dont think its an IIS issue.

I have been through a ton of stack overflow questions and I think each time i make a little progress. But For the life of me I can not shake this issue. I added logging and here is what I am seeing for Errors:

I figured out what my issue was. The App pool that was running the service did not have access to the certificate. I was assuming since I had stuck it in IIS that all app pools would have access (not the case). In case anyone finds this and has a simialar issue here is what i eventually found and what fixed it. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa702621.aspx You can also do this in MMC if you like the GUI more than cmd line tools.

I have same problem and solved problem with this code;

ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue = true;
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls;

Or try this code

ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue = true;
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Ssl3;

Running visual studio in administrator mode fixed this issue for me.
