FlashFXP + SSL + Windows 7 = 530-Valid hostname is expected.

[amadib]

Hello,

I've been stuck on this error for a while and I'm sure it's something trivial. I set up an FTP on my local box and I'm trying to validate that I can connect to it using FlashFXP. I am running Windows 7 and IIS7. I have also set up my FTP site to accept an SSL certificate.

When I connect I receive the following messages:

[00:02:55] [R] Connecting to 10.0.1.2 -> IP=10.0.1.2 PORT=21
[00:02:55] [R] Connected to 10.0.1.2

[00:02:55] [R] Connection failed

I'm not sure if it has anything to do with Virtual Hosts but the error indicates that I'm unable to connect. I have my host file reflecting all static IPs so I'm not sure what the error means. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Try this

Username format FTPSiteHostname|Username
For example: ftp.somedomain.com|someuser

I had tried this with exhaustive combinations, all unsuccessful. I have included screenshots to show you my settings.

ftp.maddhater-7.com|guesthater
maddhater-7|guesthater
10.0.1.2|guesthater

After adding the hostname to the user field (see new screenshots) I still have the same error.
