My site was work fine when it was (http) and I didn’t face any issue at that time, now I am using ssl certificate (https) but actually this error “Failed to initialize site. The error was: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.” appears from time to time.

What might the issue be her?
 

Solution
a 401 error = can't establish a secure session... the most common cause is you didn't put the correct ID + password or the server at the other end timed out before you got a reply.

ime its the password with older servers
