Unable to Complete Version Check??

[Talin090]

I have been playing FF14 for a couple months. Its been working fine till now. I get a notice saying "unable to complete version check" when i try to open the launcher, which wont let me play the game at all. Does anyone know what im talking about? And if so, is there a way to fix this problem?

Okay this seems to be a Firewall problem. It's happened to me twice now. Last update and this one. What made mine work i opened Nortons security suite and it would run fine. Try opening all of your firewall involved Programs and turning off your fire wall Hope this helps

Last time I had this issue disabling my firewall did help. It isn't working this time. Game worked fine less than 12 hours ago now it won't even load the launcher just keeps giving the "unable to complete version check [30605] [10009] [19900] [12029].

I too haven't had any previous issues. The game launched for me yesterday, but today I'm getting this message in place of the launcher:

Unable to complete version check 30605 20448 10009 10019

I have done absolutely nothing at my end; no software updates/installs.

I've spent the past hour going through an older thread, http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/71773, however nothing suggested there has helped (I didn't bother with completely deleting the game and reinstalling it, lol)

What's disappointing is this appears to be an ongoing issue yet when I went to "Square Enix Support", there was no mention of this issue or a suggested fix. TBH, I just don't get it.. this appears to be a serious issue affecting a lot of players. Why not address it?

Every thread I've checked into gets closed by a moderator saying "problem resolved" so there is no official fix. I've tried everything I can think of so far nothing works. Trying to start the launcher repeatedly now just for giggles.

I was on the game about 8 hours ago. Worked Perfectly fine. Woke up this morning and the exact same numbers as stated before. I changed absolutely nothing between when I was playing till now. I have tried the other things that people suggested. I even flushed out my dns. Absolutely nothing. I feel like the numbers mean something. I will point out that people with different strings of numbers have solved it all the same way based on that string. Here is to hoping we find a cure soon.
