scotth6 Posted February 12, 2024 Posted February 12, 2024 Hi, Trying to do a new install on a new PC. I started a couple of days ago, then my 5GHz wi-fi went down yesterday, so just did a little bit yesterday. i have stopped and started the Updater about 3 times. Today I got home from work, reset the wi-fi to get the 5GHz working again, then not long after opened up updater the updater as Administrator. It should have only had about 14GB or so left to download. Now it just searches for updates, then shuts down after about 2 minutes. This has occurred 5 times now. Same happens if I try to run the game, which I guess just runs the updater first anyway. Here are the messages from the autoupdate_templog: 00000.031 --- Log file: C:\Users\scott\AppData\Local\Temp\DCS\autoupdate_templog.txt 00000.000 === Log opened UTC 2024-02-12 05:36:17 00000.009 INFO : DCS_Updater/2.16.2.17 (Windows NT 10.0.22631; Win64; en-AU) 00000.009 INFO : src-id: 5972e82a1851d36865c17506579c27cbd5b8e3b4, lib-id: b88ea51ae2210987a3865f77cc1802548216d7a8 00000.010 INFO : cmdline: "D:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin\DCS_updater.exe" 00000.030 STATUS: Initializing... 00000.031 INFO : basedir: D:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World 00000.031 INFO : DCS/ (x86_64; EN; WORLD,CAUCASUS_terrain,MARIANAISLANDS_terrain) 00000.031 INFO : branch: 00000.032 STATUS: Checking for updates... 00029.911 ERROR: www.digitalcombatsimulator.com replied HTTP 502 Bad Gateway 00029.911 INFO : DCS/ (x86_64; EN; WORLD,CAUCASUS_terrain,MARIANAISLANDS_terrain) 00029.911 INFO : branch: 00029.913 === Log closed. 00000.000 === Log opened UTC 2024-02-12 05:38:48 00000.013 INFO : DCS_Updater/2.16.2.17 (Windows NT 10.0.22631; Win64; en-AU) 00000.013 INFO : src-id: 5972e82a1851d36865c17506579c27cbd5b8e3b4, lib-id: b88ea51ae2210987a3865f77cc1802548216d7a8 00000.013 INFO : cmdline: "D:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin\DCS_updater.exe" 00000.051 STATUS: Initializing... 00000.051 INFO : basedir: D:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\ 00000.053 INFO : DCS/ (x86_64; EN; WORLD,CAUCASUS_terrain,MARIANAISLANDS_terrain) 00000.053 INFO : branch: 00000.054 STATUS: Checking for updates... 00024.043 ERROR: www.digitalcombatsimulator.com replied HTTP 500 Internal Server Error 00024.043 INFO : DCS/ (x86_64; EN; WORLD,CAUCASUS_terrain,MARIANAISLANDS_terrain) 00024.043 INFO : branch: 00024.044 === Log closed. Any ideas please? I really don't want to spend another 3 days trying to install this for the third time on my new PC. Installed it once successfully a few weeks ago, but then had to do a full Windows reinstall. Thanks

Solution LcSummers Posted February 12, 2024 Solution Posted February 12, 2024 (edited) As i and others can´t login , may be that the server is down. Edited February 12, 2024 by LcSummers

I did consider that due to some of the error messages. Thanks for the info. 44 minutes ago, MAXsenna said: Any reason you haven't tried with a cable yet? Cheers!

MAXsenna Posted February 12, 2024 Posted February 12, 2024 No cable currently. Wifi is sufficient. not great, but sufficient. About 50 Mb/s.Sure, but if you have issues with wireless, wired should be the first troubleshooting step IMHO. Also I assume you ment 50MBps. 'Cause that's quite a substantial difference. What's your ISP speed?I doubt think downtime of authentication server affects updates but who knows?Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk

Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk I do mean 50Mb/s. I'm in Australia, and yes, our internet is that crap . I don't have wired set up at all. Currently living with others and we have a router to share the internet. The incoming connection is nowhere near my PC. In any case, there is no problem with my internet. There is either a problem with the install or with the servers. I'm hoping it's the latter. Cheers
claw Posted February 12, 2024 Posted February 12, 2024 (edited) For me the updater isn't working either. Different error log.

MAXsenna Posted February 12, 2024 Posted February 12, 2024 @scotth6 Seems the upstate server also has issues. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk 1
