Fingerprint mismatch on the 1st connection after intall

#1 Post by drmca » 2022-08-07 00:02

Installed the latest version as of today. The setup asked to take a note of the fingerprint, so I did.
When I connected the admin UI to the server, it asked whether I recognize the fingerprint provided by the server, and it is different from the saved one that is the one that I've taken a note off, during the install.
Why is there the difference, and what am I supposed to do about it?

Did you connect to the administration port configured during setup?

You give me too much credit. I have no idea. The UT started at the end of install, and it said "fingerprint mismatch". I don't know what it did.
If I disconnect and reconnect to the server, it uses port 14148 which I recall seeing during the installation. So I assume it uses the same port.

Cannot reproduce this here. If you uninstall, delete any config files written by the admin interface¹, and try again, do you reproduce the issue? Can you please take screenshots?

¹ Delete %LOCALAPPDATA%\filezilla-server-gui\settings.xml

On a live server? I won't risk that.

You asked what you have to do then, which made me assume you were waiting for a response.
