Last Updated on: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:00:02 Hello: When trying to request for a license key for image optimization i am getting the below error when clicking on Update Reduction Status . IAPI Error hash does not match: ClientCB[ 401 Unauthorized < /title>< /head> 401< /h1> Unauthorized < /h2> Proper authorization is required to access this resource!< /p> < /div>< /div> Proudly powered by LiteSpeed Web Server< /a>Please be advised that LiteSpeed Technologies Inc. is not a web hosting company and, as such, has no control over content found on this site.< /p>< /div>< /body>< /html> Failed to communicate with LiteSpeed IAPI server: no auth_key The page I need help with: https://www.indiefur.com Hi, peeyooshk. In the future, when you post something like that it would be helpful if you surrounded it with tags. Its hard to tell exactly what the error is. Im going to guess its this one, though: IAPI Error hash does not match: ClientCB[ ufeffHMAVDipkPeetCbz1] Server[HMAVDipkPeetCbz1] Failed to communicate with LiteSpeed IAPI server: no auth_key We have a wiki article that should help you fix that problem. Hi: Sorry for the trouble. I just copy pasted the same as it reflected in my dashboard. I shall take care of it next time onwards. Although when i run the command file wp-config.php, the below is the output: wp-config.php: PHP script, ASCII text The error shown is: IAPI Error hash does not match: ClientCB[ 401 Unauthorized < /title>< /head> 401< /h1> Unauthorized < /h2> Proper authorization is required to access this resource!< /p> < /div>< /div> Proudly powered by LiteSpeed Web Server< /a>Please be advised that LiteSpeed Technologies Inc. is not a web hosting company and, as such, has no control over content found on this site.< /p>< /div>< /body>< /html> ] Server[TOZlM2KGcPMxEk2L] Failed to communicate with LiteSpeed IAPI server: no auth_key Hi, again. Thanks for sharing the error again. We visited your site and saw that its password-protected. Unfortunately, if a regular person cant see your website without a password, neither can our Image Optimization server. The only way to optimize your images via LSCache is to turn off your sites password protection, unfortunately. I hope this helps!
