      This is most likely a firewall or antivirus issue be as the client cannot reach api.faforever.com

        Or a temporary DNS problem:

        Caused by: java.net.UnknownHostException: failed to resolve 'api.faforever.com' after 2 queries

        I mean you posted here, so in general it works šŸ¤·

            I am investigating why this is happening to some users and actually just made a beta release aimed at resolving this which you can try. You can download it here https://github.com/FAForever/downlords-faf-client/releases/tag/v2021.10.0-beta . Let me know if it works for you

                    @Sheikah scratch that, my /etc/resolv.conf was looking like crap. It included my router ip and one malformed ipv6. I changed it to just my DNS server. I was able to log in with this bad resolv.conf on earlier versions.

                      I can confirm that it is most likely a DNS problem.
                      to fix it:

                      • set DNS to 1.1.1.1 (2nd:8.8.8.8)
                      • in command prompt: ipconfig /flushdns
                      • close downloards FAF client
                      • actually close the application completely via the task manager (it did not start; the process was still running. Not sure if it kept running from first launch or did not start completely from second start)
                      • start downloards FAF client

                      result: logged in correctly

                        Good to know that it seems to be cause by bad dns configs. But weird how this version seems to be more sensitive to them

                          Hello!
                          I have the same problem with loging in with the new version since 2021.11.0.
                          I did the following...

                          I deinstalled my Antivirus
                          I completely reset my Windows network
                          I flushed my DNS
                          I reset my router
                          I turned off my firewall completely
                          I installed older versions of FAF, but it says "Your version is outdatet- you need to update to a new version" šŸ˜ž
                          I deinstalled and Installed FAF like 20 times between these steps.

                          Still the same error..
                          Anyone any ideas?

                          Greetings
                          John

                            @badjohn can you post the error log you get when trying to login with version 2011.11.0 (best in a seperated thread).

                            in the meantime, you could try version 1.4.6 which uses an older login version
