Soooooooo dumb question here. The CRM server does NOT have the ADFS role 
installed....so I can't access the MMC to check the certs as you suggest...or 
am I looking for the wrong thing?
The site is IFD as I can access it from the public wire and it does have a ssl 
cert installed in IIS...so possibly a disaster waiting to happen?

I'm running CRM 2011 and ADFS 2.0, so things may be a bit different for you, 
but...
Check for errors in the CRM server's application log.  I have seen ID 1309 in 
the past when the ADFS server updates its own certificates and the new ones are 
not trusted by the CRM server.

For sanity, you can also check the certs that ADFS is using by opening the ADFS 
management console on that server, expanding the Service node, then clicking on 
Certificates.  Check the dates on all the certs there.  If the token signing 
and token decrypting certs are new, I would guess that's your issue.  If so, 
you'll need to import the new certs into the CRM server's store and restart IIS.

Don't change anything in ADFS if you haven't set up IFD personally and know 
what you are doing.
I would advise exploration at this point without any modifications.

Boy that sure does fit as a possibility:
 
"There are several variations of this – but if you aren’t getting *anything* in 
the logs – start looking at your certificates! More times than not – it is the 
SSL certificate and you aren’t even getting to ADFS which is why there aren’t 
any error messages to work with. "

 
Now I just have to educate myself on how to check to see what the sysadmin who 
is unavailable today configured.

IFD install?  If so, check the ADFS token signing cert., and other things with 
ADFS.

As the subject says I had a perfectly good CRM 2013 install on 2012 and it was 
being used. Sometime overnight the site went down. Now I get a 404.0 error. 
I've disbaled friendly errors...just get a blank page not even a 404. I've 
modified the web.config debug=true nothing. Fiddler shows nothing...well not 
exactly. Fiddler shows a 404 as well. Event logs on server show nothing.



 

I've removed ssl cert and reapplied. Tried accessing the site http nada?? I 
looked for any updates that were pushed overnight nothing..(they are disabled 
but I checked anyway).

If I browse to http it redirects me https as it should. It prompts for my NT 
credentials as it should. Downloads favicon and decides it has done all it's 
going to do.

 

So I am at a real loss as to even getting a clue as to the problem. If someone 
can help me with some further troubleshooting direction it would be appreciated.

 

Thank You
