HTTPS Management point = HTTP Error 403.7 - Forbidden

Recommended Posts

I am trying to validate HTTP using the link below but I receive the error Error 403.7 - Forbidden. I can go to https://hostname.fqdn.com/ and everything comes up fine, its only when I go to the test link.

 

SCCM 2012 R2 on Server 2012(MP) with all windows patches.

 

Server 2008 R2 (Primary)

 

 

mpcontrol.log shows

 

Completed validation of Certificate [Thumbprint ba0ace702cd3add1972a84b48e4eba876e23d9ec] issued to 'hostname.fqdn.com' SMS_MP_CONTROL_MANAGER 10/28/2013 4:30:28 PM 3184 (0x0C70)

HTTP Error 403.7 - Forbidden The page you are attempting to access requires your browser to have a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) client certificate that the Web server recognizes.

 

Most likely causes:
  • The page you are attempting to access requires an SSL client certificate.
  • You are browsing to the page using HTTP.
  • The client certificate has expired or the effective time has not been reached.
  • The root certificate (the Certificate Authority certificate) of the client certificate issuing server is not installed on the Web server.
Things you can try:
  • Contact the site administrator to obtain a valid client certificate for the Web site.
  • Try browsing to the page using HTTPS.
  • If you have a client certificate installed, check if it has expired or if the effective time has not been reached.
  • Verify that the root certificate is installed on the Web server.

Sorry to bring this really old topic back up. When I upgraded to System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager I started to see this issue. It appears that the certificate had expired. I've reissued the certificate and the Management Point now shows that everything is OK. However, when I try to navigate to the SMS_MP/.sms_aut?mplist URL I still receive a 403.7 error. I am not really sure what's going on. When I issued the certificate, I used the DNS name of myserver.domain.com. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

HHancock,

 

Here is a post on this topic:

As Peter suggests, your machine may not be using the correct certificate when browsing to the url, but that doesn't necessarily indicate that there's a problem. From that link above, "if you're seeing 'Call to HttpSendRequestSync succeeded for port 443 with status code 200, text: OK' in your mpcontrol.log as per my screenshot above, that's a good sign the MP is functioning correctly."

 

So, check out your mpcontrol.log, and see what you've got.

Ok, great. The mpcontrol.log does say that it succeeded. The Management Point is showing as OK and all of my clients are showing Active.

 

Thank you for your help!
