[Could not create SSL/TLS]

Happy New Year everybody

I also have this problem (only Filehippo) and after a few weeks of searching I finally found a reason for this error and a solution.

It seems Filehippo changed their SSL certificate to only allow TLS 1.2 which got me thinking: why does the download work in e.g. Firefox but not in Ketarin? I then narrowed it down to Windows/.NET and found registry setting "SchUseStrongCrypto" which forces .NET to use newer settings for connections. You need to create the following keys in your registry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\v4.0.30319
"SchUseStrongCrypto"=dword:00000001

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\.NETFramework\v4.0.30319
"SchUseStrongCrypto"=dword:00000001

After that a reboot may be necessary. If you don't know what the registry is let a professional do that for you.

I'm sure there is a Windows 7 update somewhere that (should) fix that but I could not find it.
Also after the recent catastrophic Microsoft updates and the ... Windows 10 forced updates it is not in my interest to mess up a fine running Windows 7.

Hope this solution works for you too!

 

Thank you for posting this. I had the same problem on my Win 10 Home version 1709 system. Added the registry keys you noted and now Ketarin works with FileHippo again. 

Hopefully I won't have problems with other applications, will report back here if I do...

Mahalo,

Aloha!

Would it be possible to post the contents of the log file?

Is $ Remote Tools an existing directory?

Add a backslash \ to the end of your folder names and try it again.

COPY /V /Y "D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\$ Tools\Process Explorer\procexp64.exe" "D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\$ Tools\$ Remote Tools\"
COPY /V /Y "D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\$ Tools\Process Explorer\procexpl.reg" "D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\$ Tools\"
COPY /V /Y "D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\$ Tools\Process Explorer\procexp64.exe" "C:\Tools\"

If the file path never changes and to keep the script area clean, you can use global variables.  If you do not always want to write D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\, you can shorten it to something like {haoleboy}.

Open your settings (CTRL + T), switch to Global variables, create a variable called haoleboy, for example. Add D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders as value. If you want to use a script the next time, you can shorten it.

COPY /V /Y "{haoleboy}\$ Tools\Process Explorer\procexp64.exe" "{haoleboy}\$ Tools\$ Remote Tools\"
COPY /V /Y "{haoleboy}\$ Tools\Process Explorer\procexpl.reg" "{haoleboy}\$ Tools\"
COPY /V /Y "{haoleboy}\$ Tools\Process Explorer\procexp64.exe" "C:\Tools\"

Same for 7zip. Create a variable called 7z for example and set the value to C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe

If you want to use 7zip the next time, then you can do it like this: "{7z}" x "{file}" -o"{file:directory}" -y

 

Yes, "$ Remote Tools" already exists.

Adding the trailing backslash did not resolve the problem (i.e. no error messages received from the "Run" dialog, and the files were not copied to the intended directory)  

Thanks for the tip on the global variables. Will implement them after I get these copy commands to work.

Mahalo for the replies. Sorry for the delay in responding, but I did not receive a notification that there was a reply. 

I will test out your suggestions and provide an update.

[Problems with "after downloading" commands]

I'm using Ketarin 1.8.7 on Windows 10 1703. I only use it for keeping my installation files up-to-date (don't install anything using Ketarin). For some of the applications, I need to copy one or more of the files to a couple of different locations on my machine (local drives, not a network drive). Here's what the "after downloading" commands look like:

===================

"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" x "{file}" -o"{file:directory}" -y
copy "D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\$ Tools\Process Explorer\procexp64.exe" "D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\$ Tools\$ Remote Tools"
copy "D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\$ Tools\Process Explorer\procexpl.reg" "D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\$ Tools\$ Remote Tools"
copy "D:\Haole Boy\$USB files and folders\$ Tools\Process Explorer\procexp64.exe" "C:\Tools"

===================

When in the edit window, I can click 'Run' and I get a window message box saying that the script executed successfully. When I look at the various directories involved, I can see that the unzip command worked, but none of the following commands succeeded. I'm not sure if they are not actually executed or if they fail for some reason. If I "rem" out the first command, the 2nd command works, but the 3rd and 4th do not. Same if I 'rem' out the first 2 commands the 3rd works, etc.  I've copied the 2nd - 4th lines into a .bat file and it executes the commands without an error, so I don't think I have a syntax problem. 

I'll be happy to collect whatever documentation you need, just tell me what and how to do it.

Mahalo! (Thank You!)

[Download Adobe Flash and Reader fails from filehippo]

Aloha!

 

I used to be able to download Adobe Flash and Reader from Filehippo using Ketarin with no problems. Sometime in the last month or two Filehippo changed so that if you try to download Flash or Reader you get redirected to 'get.adobe.com/flashplayer'. Obviously, Ketarin can't handle this (and I don't expect it to). But.. has anyone found another site to easily download the latest version of Flash and Reader using Ketarin? I did see a URL for a different download site in another post but it includes the version number, I would like something like filehippo where the url will always get me the latest (non-Beta) version.

 

Mahalo,
