IBM Aspera High-Speed Transfer Server (HSTS) v4.0 was released in November 2020. This release contains many enhancements and fixes.
HSTS v4.0 also marks the official end of support for the Connect Server web UI. This feature has been deprecated for several years but is now no longer supported.
The Connect Server web UI was a simple web interface that organizations could host via Apache or IIS running on their HSTS host.
WARNING: New installations of HSTS v4.0+ will not include the required components for this feature, and upgrading from previous versions of HSTS to v4.0+ will remove support for existing installations.
Alternative Options
There are several migration options available for this functionality. IBM Aspera Shares and IBM Aspera on Cloud both provide file-and-folder workflows in a web browser, with more robust security and features.
