That’s strange as a lot of other people have had no issues with S3. However, a search of the forum for `Amazon.Runtime.Internal.HttpRequest:_request` seems to indicate other users have run into the issue with S3 COMPATIBLE destinations (such as Minio). In at least one case, the solution was to set the `--allowed-ssl-versions` to `TLS12` for the specific job (apparently it didn’t help when setting globally). > [@Windows service + minio with ssl error](https://forum.duplicati.com/t/windows-service-minio-with-ssl-error/527/4): > > I figured this out, want to document it for the sake of others. Synopsis: When using Duplicati with a Windows service, have to specify TLS12 at the job level in order to work with Minio. Setting at a global level does not appear to take. It did automagically work when I was using it as a desktop application instead of a Windows service, but I probably won’t have time to reproduce with a new system to determine the difference. Details: I used ssldump on my minio server to capture packets. 1… Can you try that out and see if it helps? --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.duplicati.com/t/duplicati-failed-to-connect-amazone-s3/2568)._
