Host Name With SSL
Advanced Installer (10.3) will not allow me to enter a host name with a site that only uses SSL. Per the help, "For HTTPS bindings, the host name is already specified in the web authentication digital certificate associated with the Web Site, and it is not necessary to specify it in the binding", this is NOT true with wild card certificates *.mydomain.com. How can I enter the host name?
Re: Host Name With SSL
Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,
Thank you for your interest in Advanced Installer.
Indeed, this seems to be an Advanced Installer limitation. A fix will be available in a future version of Advanced Installer, thank you for bringing it to our attention.
Until then you can manually edit the .AIP(project file). In order to achieve that you can open the .AIP with a text editor(e.g. Notepad) and search the related site and in the SecureBindings attribute you can write the hostname.
E.g.
where localhost is your hostname
When you will reload the .AIP project you should see the hostname.
Please let us know if that helped.
Best regards,
Dan

Re: Host Name With SSL
That appears to have worked and I was able to pass a property [HOSTNAME] which is what I really wanted. Thanks
