Launcher Boot Error[30605][10009][10020]

[Jonah_Greymont]

This error was received upon attempting to start the launcher, running either normally or as administrator on my PC. It came with the message "Unable to complete version check." I have restarted my computer and still receive the error. After multiple attempts I was able to start the game after not getting the message, but the moment the start screen came up the client crashed and I am now getting the error message again. I am considering attempting to reinstall the software, but that will take a considerable amount of time and would like to bypass that if at all possible.

Any help regarding this issue would be appreciated.

EDIT: After closing the web browser and attempting to reconnect to this site, I receive the message that the webpage is unavailable. After several attempts to refresh the page I was finally able to return here. This is highly unusual for me as I have a generally reliable internet connection and I am having no trouble accessing other webpages. This is not just accessing the forums but accessing finalfantasyxiv.com altogether.

EDIT 2: After multiple attempts (again) I was able to log into the game, but after clicking Start I get another error message stating "Cannot load NA/EU Character List", which is where all of my characters reside.

EDIT 3: After an hour of dealing with this (these?) problem/s, I was finally able to log in to my characters on the NA/EU data center. Apparently the answer to my struggle was simply persistence. Still, a resolution to this error should be sought in the future so that I or any other other customer doesn't have to go through this again.

I'm having the same issue, but for me it's on the PS3. It seems to take 2-3 tries for everything to load. Then 2-3 tries to log in. However, when I finally get into the game, I haven't been having any trouble.

Just giving an update here. Once I was able to actually get into the game I had no trouble whatsoever. Not sure if there was some hiccup that ironed itself out or if there is some other issue at play there. Hopefully I won't have these problems when I login tonight.
