Hi,

This error message indicates that you also have to use https://*** to
access owahttps.asp. Try this link directly,
http://ServerName/FolderName/owahttps.asp . What's the result? Do you get
the same error page? If so, please disable the SSL authentication on the
root virtual directly (Default Web Site):

-- Open IIS snap-in
-- Open the properties pane of "Web Sites"/"Default Web Site"
-- Switch to "Directory Security" tab, and then click Edit button
-- Clear the checkbox "Require SSL"

-- Enable SSL on the "Exchange" virtual directories.

Note: Please only enable SSL on "Exchange" virtual directory

-- Restart IIS and then check the issue again.

Meanwhile, please verify your steps by referring to this KB article, maybe
you have already read it.
