Configuring the PME EWS server for HTTPS

By default, the EWS server in PME is configured for HTTP client connections.

To configure the EWS server for HTTPS client connections:

  1. On the PME server, open the web.config file for editing, for example in Notepad. You can find this file in ...\Power Monitoring Expert\applications\EWS.
  2. Search for the <binding name="DataExchange_BP11Binding"> element in the file. Find the <httpTransport ... /> child element and change it to <httpsTransport ... />.
  3. Search for the <behavior name="DataExchange_BP11Behavior"> element in the file. Find the <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" /> child element and add the httpsGetEnabled="true" attribute. After the change the element should look like this: <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" httpsGetEnabled="true"/>.
  4. Save the web.config file. Close the file.
  5. Restart Internet Information Services (IIS) on this computer.
