When I try to start DCS (launcher or direct) I receive the message "Login failed - Website currently not available. You can continue offline"

Well, I don't have internet problem. Every other online application is running without a problem. The credentials are checked and valid (login thru the website works).

Is there a problem with the DCS servers? Or is it a known issue, since the last update? I never had this problem before, when everthing else works online. No AV-Software is running.

I've just started the repair mode. I am curious if it can fix something.

Interesting - looks like the repair mode fixed the problem. I can start DCS without this error message. However, the multiplayer host list is empty - no servers available. I will check it again later...

You might need to update to the latest version, again.

It is (DCS fails to resolve api.digitalcombatsimulator.com). ED are working on a proper fix. Changing DNS server typically resolves it. If it doesn't, editing your etc/hosts is another temporary workaround. More details here:

Same issue here. As DCS still works offline - just wait for next update or urge for action?

I can't login and have to play offline - that happened the last 2 weeks occasionally. New is "you have to enter a local password" and it says it does not match (wrong, it's the same) and don't even let me access any module.

Can we have an urgent fix? What's going on since last patch?

edit: did a DCS-repair, did a reboot, changed my password just to be safe: no change! No login, no access to neither modules (just the standard free ones).

edit2: added this to \Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts now it works.
