WS_FTP Pro 12 - cannot connect to server with SSL Session

Question
-
I have sequenced WS_FTP Pro 12 (using v4.6 SP1/Win7 64bit) and am unable to make a successful FTP server connection when using any sort of Server Type that requires an SSL session. The sequence works fine with a regular FTP session, yet any of the secure FTP sessions will fail, the log only gives the following:
Connecting to ###.###.##.##:990
Connected to ###.###.##.##:990 in 0.000000 seconds, Waiting for Server Response
Initializing SSL Session ...
Failed to create SSL session.
Host type (1): AUTO
An additional byproduct of this issue is that anytime I go to view the advanced options for a site connection I also get an error: "Failed to load OpenPGP keys from the keyrings."
I've installed the software locally and everything works fine.
I'm still new to App-V so I apologize if I'm missing some pertinent details.
Thank you for any help you can offer.Friday, December 9, 2011 2:29 PM

Yes you probably copied the IPSWITCH to another PC under different user.
For Failed to create SSL session go to C:\Users\<your account name>\AppData\Roaming\Ipswitch\WS_FTP\SSL\ find the wsftpssl.ini file and edit it. Replace an old <account name> to the <your account name>, then save a file.
Re-open IPSWITCH and you will be fine.
For issues with PGP and SSH do the same - find *.ini file under the folder you need and edit it, replacing an incorrect path.

Hello,
Use Process Monitor to determine what happens and see if it can locate all resources it needs

"Failed to load OpenPGP keys from the keyrings.": Did you copy Ipswitch to a new machine? Check your pathnames in C:\Users\<your account name>\AppData\Roaming\Ipswitch\WS_FTP\pgp\ipspgp.ini and reset where needed.
Failed to create SSL session.: No idea. Still trying to figure that one out myself. :-/
