Title

SSL Error - Return Code = -2146893042

Product

Emulation Types

Issue

Solution

This problem is normally seen when the client certificate being used to connect to the host has not been imported into the Windows Certificate Store, or an invalid certificate has been selected from the Communication Setup®Security screen. Please make sure you have exported the certificate from the SSL enabled host and the certificate has been imported into the Personal certificate store.

 

Note: You may need to contact IT/Security personnel in order to get the correct client certificate to import.
