windows_certificate_binding does not bind ssl certificate to the default web site

[ngeegoh]

Cookbook version

Chef-client version

Chef Workstation version: 0.5.1
Chef Infra Client version: 15.1.36

Platform Details

Chef Solo in Windows 2016 Datacentre

Scenario:

I got this code in my recipe, when I ran it, it did not bind the certificate to the https in "Default Web Site" as expected (it did nothing, but it worked before for some reasons I am not sure). I suspect it might be the windows cookbook bug that causes this issue.

windows_certificate_binding "Bind IIS HTTPS Certificate" do
        action :create
        cert_name "<thumbprint string>"
        name_kind :hash
        address '0.0.0.0'
        port 443
    end

Expected Result:

I tried to remove and add different windows_certificate_binding options but none of them worked.
I can bind the SSL certificate to https manually and ensure the certificate is in an exportable stage.

Actual Result:

It output as success, but nothing actually happened

* windows_certificate_binding[Bind IIS HTTPS Certificate] action create (up to date)
