I'm currently trying to replace my soon to expire ADFS communication cert with the Powershell command
Set-Adfssslcertificate and using a thumbprint from a cert that's already been installed on the server.
However I keep getting this error.
The socket connection was aborted. This could be caused by an error processing your message or a receive timeout being exceeded by the remote host, or an underlying network resource issue. Local socket timeout was '00:01:00'.
I haven't been able to find anything helpful in event viewer. It just stops the service right after I run the command and I have to manually start it again.
I've tried this multiple times at different times so I don't think this is some one-off network error. The service has been working fine as well.
