I've setup an https binding for my site in IIS but I'm getting a 503 Service Unavailable error whenever I try to hit the endpoint.
What's weird is I can access the site without issue over port 80.
The application pool is started and I can't find any errors in the windows logs.
What's the best way to go about debugging this issue?

I'd do the following steps to troubleshoot such scenarios:
Turn on display of detailed error messages
<deployment retail="true" />
within the<system.web>
section, or change it to the default value of "false".Turn on debug mode on your Web.config
Browse to and open the web.config file pertaining to the server or specific application that has been configured. Modify values in these tags:
<compilation debug>
,<customErrors>
, and<httpErrors>
:Browse your ASP site In IIS Manager, right click your site then select "Manage Application" > "Browse". Your Internet Explorer browser should popup. If there are any SSL related errors, just click on "Continue to this website".
Error messages, if any, should appear here.
