DescriptionThe server has refused the Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP) request. Either a failure response code or no response code was received. The data portion below contains the response code that was received from the server. This is the HTTP status code present in the response. It can be because the web proxy or the SSTP server might be rejecting the connection, the server might not be configured for SSTP or the server might not have a port available for connection.
Event Information According to Microsoft :

Cause :

This event is logged when the server has refused the Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP) request. Either a failure response code or no response code was received.

Resolution :

Check the HTTP status code

The resolution steps vary, according to the HTTP status code.

The only status code that the SSTP service on the client will respond for a failure is HTTP_STATUS_PROXY_AUTH_REQ (Proxy authentication required). An Access Denied message will appear in the dialer user interface on the client computer. Configure the proxy server so that it does not prompt for authentication.

If the Web proxy or the SSTP server is rejecting the connection, the server might not be configured to use SSTP. To check whether the Web proxy server is configured to block the connection to the SSTP URL, try the following link: https://%3cservername%3e/sra_%7BBA195980-CD49-458b-9E23-C84EE0ADCD75%7D/
