FortiClient 'Connection Error!' – SSLVPN Suddenly stopped working for all users

Hi all, Our SSLVPN was working fine for a few months but has suddenly stopped working. I've tried performing all updates and restarting the Fortigate 50E but still have the same issue across all users. CLI debug below: Any ideas?

Hey guys, I figured it out in the end – FortiClient has some sort of bug that was causing the issue. To troubleshoot this yourself if you have this error, try eliminate the client as the issue by accessing the web portal through a web browser via https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyy/ where x is your IP and y is your port. Updating FortiClient to the newest version resolved the issue.

I still think something had happened to the 50E side, which no longer happens, if everybody had the same symptom. The sslvpnd log showed everything went through normally including user authentication, then drops at the end with an error.

I thought so too but nothing seemed to fix it when I was troubleshooting on the host side, but updating the client fixed the issue immediately. I'll report back if the error comes back.
