Neddie Seagoon Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Having this exact same issue. My log file looks almost the same as this including the fail at Marianas textures. I’ve excluded the DCS world folder from Defender and allowed DCS and the DCS updater through the firewall. And, like OP, have not had any issues updating before this. Also tried using a VPN, still get the error. Any help will be very welcome. TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 If you're having UNPACK_FAIL errors in yout update log, please check your RAM with MemTest86. You never know. See here: --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neddie Seagoon Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Thanks, Flappie, I’ll go get a thumb drive tomorrow and run MemTest86, but the windows memory diagnostic didn’t turn up any issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 19 hours ago, Neddie Seagoon said: but the windows memory diagnostic didn’t turn up any issues. It is notoriously less reliable than MemTest86. MemTest86 is not perfect either, but it's the best free tool for the job. --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neddie Seagoon Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 MemTest86 complete, no errors. Should I open a trouble ticket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Try this beforehand: Download the zip from this page, link below. Unzip it into your ./DCS World/bin. Then try to run the updater again. If this doesn't help, please create a support ticket (log into DCS website, click "Support", then "Create a new ticket"). --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neddie Seagoon Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 I want to update this topic to let everyone know that I did submit a support ticket and the support staff were extremely helpful. I want to publicly acknowledge their help. Thanks guys. We never did figure out why I was getting the failed transfer errors, but we managed a workaround by downloading the open beta version. The updater was then able to copy the problem files from the open beta directory and could then complete the rest of the stable update. It’s all working great now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diasmon Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Hello all, is there any update on the cause of this issue? I never encountered it before, but now I cannot update my DCS. I even tried to install it from zero, still no success. Attached is the last of the log files.autoupdate_log.txt In it I don't even see any errors/fails.
