    I think the problem here may be the use of DW CS4.

    That particular version was released in, and unchanged since, 2008. It's likely the type of secure connection being attempted simply didn't exist at the time the program was considered "current" and just can't be done.

    I would suggest downloading the free Filezilla FTP Client, which has been kept up to date over the last 15+ years. That program along with the connection info given by OVH should work without issue, even with the newest secure connection methods.

    If it doesn't, contacting OVH and having them walk you through the connection with Filezilla should reveal any error in your credentials or connection method.

      what you're saying could make sense, but then it would be a problem of FTP connections, not HTTPs.
      When reading the post title, @Agnes31764532qag0 would be facing a problem switching between HTTP and HTTPs, i.e. using port 443, not ports used in FTP (990, 989, 21, 222, 2121... etc...), which would justify a test with Filezilla.

      Secure HTTPS has nothing to do with Dreamweaver. 

       

      Contact your web hosting provider and ask for rates on SSL/TLS certificates for your hosting plan. 

      For a fee, your host can install the necessary certificates on the server for you. 

      NOTE: You will have to renew your server's certificates annually.

      @Agnes31764532qag0 said she has an SSL certificate from OVH... so that is not the point, so as I assume from her ISP that she's French and shouldn't have any trouble following the Puce et Média article tp ewicth from HTTP to HTTPs.
