IIS Non-default TCP Port and SSL Enabled / Get an Error

I setup a website in IIS to port 5555 and enabled SSL to port 443.
After doing so I try hitting https://<SERVERNAME:5555>/index.html and
I get a "page could not be displayed" error. I can hit
http://<SERVERNAME:5555>/index.html just fine. This does work however
if the TCP PORT is set to 80. But once i change the TCP PORT to any
other port but 80 it no longer works. Any ideas why? Your thoughts are
appreciated.

Thank you,
Ken Buska

Hi,

Did you bind port 5555 with 443?
We had same issue in the past, if I recall it, we had to use port 1000 or
1001 and bind it with 443.
is your (DNS) provider assigned your SSL certification?

I hope this help.
