I have the same issue. Did a cleanup and tried a repair like I ever do before I run a new DCS update and get this error when I start the repair. Attached the log file. Seems as if the api isn't reachable, so not a firewall or AV problem but a problem on ED's side.

the returned api URL is missing at least one slash -> config problem on ED side

Yeah, as I said. Seems the new updater that is installed before the DCS update (or a repair) runs is misconfigured.

Someone wrote it already, there is a typo in the API URL: www.digitalcombatsimulator.comgameapi -> should be: www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/gameapi

The "best" thing is: even if they fix the problem, to get a new corrected version of the updater you need a connection from the fault updater to the API first, but that isn't possible because of this typo.

It installed for me after 3 tries, but it won't start and I can't repair it because DCS repair says it can't resolve host name. All this because of a 654kb file.null
