AFSG_Rhino Posted June 23, 2021 Posted June 23, 2021 (edited) Good day, After years of no issue use of DCS, sometime the past few weeks the updater has failed to be able to run for more than a few minutes at a time before if stops and displays the error box " Server capacity may be limited at the moment. Please, try again later." These issues started with a stable release installed on win10 pro system with no system changes (other than Win updates) prior to malfunction. I have spent a few days free time in the forums here trying to locate a fix and have tried the possible fixes that found with no results. I have updated the updater, rebooted my router / modem, set exclusions within win firewall and anti-virus/malware software (Kaspersky), all with no change. In an effort to regain a functional install, I uninstalled (after backing up my config) and tried to reinstall the latest stable release without success. The installer stops in the same manner as the updater did as described above. I have also attempted installing the current open beta with the same results. The attached are the auto update log is from the latest attempts to install / update / repair the open beta. Seems I cannot attach a file. Keep getting a Failed to attach file due to unknown server error, Error -200 message when trying to attach my auto update log file. I have copied the last part of it into the body of this post below. I assume these two issues might be related. I apologize if I am re-posting an issue that has already been resolved. At this point I just want to get back to a functional install of DCS, stable release or open beta. Let me know if there are any questions I can answer or if there is more system / configuration information needed for troubleshooting. Thank you for the help.

AFSG_Rhino Posted June 23, 2021 Author Posted June 23, 2021 The results of command line "netsh interface tcp show global" is as follows: TCP Global Parameters ---------------------------------------------- Receive-Side Scaling State : enabled Receive Window Auto-Tuning Level : normal Add-On Congestion Control Provider : default ECN Capability : disabled RFC 1323 Timestamps : disabled Initial RTO : 1000 Receive Segment Coalescing State : enabled Non Sack Rtt Resiliency : disabled Max SYN Retransmissions : 4 Fast Open : enabled Fast Open Fallback : enabled HyStart : enabled Proportional Rate Reduction : enabled Pacing Profile : off
Flappie Posted June 23, 2021 Posted June 23, 2021 OK, it means auto-tuning is already enabled on your machine. Are you using a VPN? Do you use a firewall different from the default W10 firewall? Is your PC behing a proxy? Have you ever installed Avast antivirus on your PC? ---
AFSG_Rhino Posted June 23, 2021 Author Posted June 23, 2021 1. no 2. no 3. I don't think so. Network cable connected directly from the PC to the FIOS gateway / router 4. no
Flappie Posted June 23, 2021 Posted June 23, 2021 OK, your answer to 3 means no. Please try rebooting your router, then. I see no other solution at this point. ---
AFSG_Rhino Posted June 23, 2021 Author Posted June 23, 2021 I will give that a try and report back. Thank you for your help.
