Unable to retrieve version error

It may be that your company uses a self signed certificate to encrypt traffic inside the network. You must disable SSL verification for YASARA 3DM to work. For security reasons we do not recommend this recourse for computers that may move outside the company network.


1. Navigate to the location where you installed PyMol in Explorer. This is likely C:\Program Files\YASARA .
2. Inside this directory, navigate to plg\bioprodict
3. Open the config.json file in notepad (or your favorite plain text editor)
4. Find the line that says: "verify_https": true , change true to false to disable this setting.
5. Save the file.
6. Restart YASARA, the plugin should now work.
