Configure SSL

The Report and Dashboard Server’s Windows Forms EUD and Scheduler service use WCF to communicate with the back-end. If your Report and Dashboard Server instance uses HTTPS bindings, you should also configure WCF on the back-end to operate over SSL. To do this, use the ConfigureSecurityMode utility as described below:

  1. Open the Command Prompt with administrative permission.

    command-prompt-run-as-administrator

  2. Navigate to the Report and Dashboard Server directory (for example, “C:\Program Files (x86)\DevExpress\Report Server”) and switch to the “Tools” folder. In this folder, run the ConfigureSecurityMode.exe file with the corresponding options as follows.

    “ConfigureSecurityMode.exe -c ..\Web\web.config -s”

    command-prompt-web-config-https

    Upon command execution, the following message is displayed: “Mode switching has been successfully completed (Https)”.
