My password and account number are correct, but I cannot log in. In-game display: Error logging in. Please help me.

It would be a lot easier to help you if you gave us some information to work with. Start by telling us which version of the game you are running, and whether you're playing on Windows or Linux. I'm also not sure what you mean by "account number" as login is by name, not number. Finally, the only other advice I can offers is that the password is case-sensitive, so be careful to ensure that you get that right.

In your case SSL failing to connect sounds like a firewall issue.

Already allowed x4.exe in and out,still unable to connect.
The confusing part is the game knows password is wrong,is that means the connection is fine?

The authentication may be separate from the data, which would explain the password thing. And the firewall may not be yours.
