Multiplicity Setup Failure

Encryption key not changeagle

from Stardock Forums

 

I just upgraded to the Object Desktop suite and installed Multiplicity KM (Version 3.5 Build 00096.km).   I have the Primary and Secondary installed, but they will not communicate because I continuously get a notification message that the encryption key is incorrect.

 

 

 

In the Primary settings I get the following message when I change anything on the Secondary linkage.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the Primary, I cannot setup an encryption key as this option is not available:

 

 I can change the encryption key in the Secondary without issue, but I cannot remove it.

 

 Please advise.

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

I don't know how this was missed but my apologies for it.

But DID you change it?  If so, and instead of trying to change it back, burn it and reinstall on the Secondary:

If you still have the issue, is either PC you are installing on NOT under a Windows Administrator account?  If so, and if possible, at least for the install, do so under an admin account.

Again, sorry for the delay.

The default encryption key is CHANGEME

Also ensure you have not set the option on the secondary that only allows an encrypted connection.  The lowest level version of MP doesn't do encryption so will no longer be able to connect.
