Open Beta Download "Couldn't Connect to Server"

[Spathiphyllum]

Just deleted my "stable" install to free up space for the Open Beta, in order to be able to use my "brand new" A-10 C II module.

 

Downloaded the Open Beta installer without issues, but when the download actual download of the game starts, after selecting the installation directory, the thing is first "Checking for Updates" and then a pop-up message comes up:

 

COULDN'T CONNECT TO SERVER

 

Are there any server issues?

Hi. Can you please attach your DCS World OpenBeta\autoupdate_log.txt file?

Hi

 

I have made the team aware.

 

Please follow this link and download the latest dcs_updater.exe and replace it with the one in your install location

This is also happening to me and I am running the latest stable version. I've also found others with the same issue as of today. "Cannot connect to server" error comes up when starting DCS.

I getting the same error message. I had to reinstall a clean version of Windows 10 due to a corrupted M.2 SSD and now I can't install either the stable or beta version of using the web installer. I get the same COULDN'T CONNECT TO SERVER message. I tried disabling my Anti-virus, and connecting directly to the internet and I get the same error. I had no issues with any of the 20 other games that I installed. I put in a ticket, but it looks like even that got lost, so I'll have to but in another ticket.

Should be ok now, let me know if it is not
