Add ability to only use one port

[Robert]

If possible, it would be ideal if TeamPulse could utilize a single standard port (80 or 443).  In my case, I want to make TeamPulse available over the Internet via SSL but due to our security policies I cannot use any port other than 443, which makes doing so impossible at this point.

Hello Robert,

It is possible to run TeamPulse over SSL. Here are the steps:

1. Add new binding for SSL via IIS Manager but keep the other one that uses port 9898
2. Open the web.config file for the TeamPulse site in any text redactor. It is located in -> <installed folder>\TeamPulse\wwwroot\web.config.
3. Search for TransportCredentialOnly and change it to Transport. You should find it three times.
4. Save web.config

That have to do the job. If you have any further questions do not hesitate to ask.

This will work even if port 9898 on the server is not accessible to the Silverlight client on the Internet -- only 443 is allowed through the firewall?

[Robert]

Ok, I see that that does appear to work.  Now, is there a way TeamPulse can be an Application within another Web Site instead of being it's own web site?

[Robert]

If I take a working TeamPulse web site and try to implement it as an Application with another Web Site I find that the services are accessible, but the the silverlight client fails with the following.  The goal is to have TeamPule as a sub-site of a published SSL secured site instead of having to publish out another site with another SSL certificate.

Hello Robert,

Yes you can run TeamPulse as a sub-site of a published SSL secured site. You have to keep the settings changed in web.config fire. Then add TeamPulse as Application under the secured site and for application pool choose  -> TeamPulse_APP_POOL. After application is added go to Authentication settings and Enable -> Windows Authentication all other Authentications should be Disabled. 

Best wishes,

Hi Team,

We had our Teampulse server running on port 443 by adding the extra SSL binding and making web config changes to the TransportCredentialOnly settings as recommended in one of the forum posts. The server was working fine - today we did a backup and then upgraded to the latest version. We had to re-do the webconfig changes - however now the server does not work with standard https - it comes up with the same .NET error (see below). We were using the https method to publish for external clients, where we cannot use the non standard port = 9898.

For now our internal staff can access the system via port 9898 - but no external access - can you please advise how this can be fixed in the latest upgraded version.

Thanks

Hello Aaron,

 I'm sorry that you experience that problem. After the upgrade you have to re-configure not only the Web.config file but the site in IIS too. Here is an KB explaining all changes that you have to make in order to access TeamPulse via SSL.

Can you confirm that you have made all changes at both places - Web.config file and IIS for the TeamPulse site?

If you have any further questions do not hesitate to ask.
