ED Team c0ff Posted April 30, 2013 ED Team Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) FIXED If you are updating 1.2.3 (or any previous version) to 1.2.4.11855 and still have the 404 problem, please, post in this thread. 'File not found' problem is fixed as well: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=105779 May happen when you update to 1.2.4 from 1.2.3.9871.38 or earlier versions. The 4-step solution: 0. Make sure you get a 404 error 1. Replace the contents of your C:\Users\<YOUR LOGIN>\Saved Games\DCS\Config\autoupdate.settings file with: { "update_period": 1, "last_update": 0, "update_to": "release" } 2. Update (it will work) 3. DELETE the autoupdate.settings file. Thanks to SlobbishBody for testing. Mods, please stick it. Thanks! Edited May 7, 2013 by c0ff 1 Dmitry S.

Loki_ Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 To save us some time, if we verify that we currently have 1.2.3.9871.38 or earlier versions should we just go ahead and make this change prior to auto-update instead of downloading the update twice?

ED Team c0ff Posted April 30, 2013 Author ED Team Share Posted April 30, 2013 To save us some time, if we verify that we currently have 1.2.3.9871.38 or earlier versions should we just go ahead and make this change prior to auto-update instead of downloading the update twice? No. It won't download the update twice. The update to 1.2.4 is 2-stage: 1. it replaces the updater only 2. New updater installs the update 2nd stage fails (I'm currently investigating, why). The solution keeps the 2nd stage from failing, it will not work without completing the 1st one. Dmitry S.

Kameni Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Works like a charm! Even if you don't get errors, but game just doesn't update (it's hidden 404). Thank you.

ED Team c0ff Posted May 6, 2013 Author ED Team Share Posted May 6, 2013 The issue with updates from 1.2.1 needs some research. I'll be back in a couple of days with more info.
