New Post: createDirectory failed when wsus uses ssl

Hi, I am connected to a wsus 6.3.9600 server. All OK until I configured the wsus server to use SSL. When I now try to publish I receive a createDirectory failed error. WPP is installed on the WSUS server, and is configured as below:

```<WsusPackagePublisher>
<Server>

<Name>wsus.company.i</Name>
<IsLocal>True</IsLocal>
<Port>8531</Port>
<UseSSL>True</UseSSL>
<IgnoreCertErrors>False</IgnoreCertErrors>
<DeadLineDaysSpan>0</DeadLineDaysSpan>
<DeadLineHour>0</DeadLineHour>
<DeadLineMinute>0</DeadLineMinute>
<VisibleInWsusConsole>Never</VisibleInWsusConsole>

</Server>
</WsusPackagePublisher>

I have checked the share and ntfs permissions on \server\UpdateServicesPackages and \server\wsuscontent and all ok (no problem when wsus is not configured for ssl). The wsus server is using a company generated certificate for it's client ssl connection, and WPP is using a WPP self-signed certificate for the software packages. Both certificates are published in the correct stores.

If I revert the wsus server to non ssl, then all works ok, but non-ssl is not permitted in my organization. Any help greatly appreciated.

Many thanks```
