Thanks for this info I was able to fix it with this by forcing the launcher to update by doing the following.

go to Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\ open up FFXIV_BOOT.cfg in word pad or notepad.

you should see this

<FINAL FANTASY XIV Boot Config File>

<Version>
Version 2
Language 1
Region 2
EulaAgreement 1
StartupCompleted 1
B4EulaAgreement 1
BootVersionCheckMode 0
ConfigReset 0

the line in bold is the key change the 0 to a 1 and it forces it to check version upon opening the launcher.

After doing this it updated launcher and the game fine.

THANK YOU! This worked perfectly for me. Really appreciate it.

Servers were up early for patch 2.2. Couldn't make heads or tails of the login version error. Scoured the entire thread and this was the only solution to work. Thank you so much!

deleted it, remade, changed it, made copies of it, etc. etc. nothing has worked. Kinda frustrating.

Copied your post from the other thread into here:

If your launcher is loading, but when you hit play you get the version check error, look at the launch version at the top. If its an old version, from January, or blank, that could be the problem. My computer that I played beta on was stuck on January version. My other PC that I installed FFXIV much later on updated the launcher to February 2014 right away. The current launcher should be 2014.02.26.0000.0001 - I simply took all the files out of the boot folder from my good PC and moved them with a USB drive over to my other PC and bang I had the current loader and it started downloading the patch. I will see if I can link to the launcher files somewhere. Again, you need launcher version 2014.02.26.0000.0001 . The files in this folder need to be updated :


C:\Program Files (x86)\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\boot

I just copied all 8 files over to the other computer. You may not need them all, but I didn't bother checking if you only needed this or that.

If this really is the problem then that would explain why mine isn't updating. My version is stuck on 2014.01.18.0000.0001
