What is FortiOS version?

Can you enable debug level log and reproduce?

 

-12 error seems to be the returned XML from FortiGate has wrong format.

Can you enable debug level log and reproduce?

 

yes i can, but how and whats do you need to paste here.   -12 error seems to be the returned XML from FortiGate has wrong format.

 

This error only happend with latest fortigate, with previous version work fine.

To enable FortiClient debug level log,

File -> Settings, enable logging for VPN, set Log Level to "Debug".

 

In the log file, before "SSLVPN tunnel connection failed (Error=-12)", there shall be a couple web pages returned to FortiClient. May be one of them has wrong format.

Could it be the FortiGate was in a wrong state, then later it recovered?
