#10 The host key had changed

[Anonymous]

What do I have to do if I cannot connect to my server anymore because of the following error while connectig?

[SFTP] The host key had changed, and is now: 6d:f2:a7:19:2b:cb:ef:6f:38:6d:a9:8f:4a:a1:b4:ec
For security reasons, connection will be stopped.
Unable to connect

This was after I switched to a new server (different ip-address).

Was this fixed? If so, what was the solution?

[Anonymous]

No, this is still not fixed. Anyone know how to solve this problem?

This problem can be fixed by removed the original host entry.

You may find a file from C:\Users\<ur username>\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\plugins\config\NppFTP\known_hosts

edit it and remove the original crash host should work!
