Unable to complete version check. [30410][30607][20457][409]

[Roland788]

I have tried everything listed here to no avail. I'm at a loss now, it's just really frustrating. Has anyone heard of any other fixes? I've been scanning reddit and anywhere else I can think of for a fix.

OK guys, I hit this issue on a brand new Windows 8.1 install. I tried all the things mentioned in this thread and nothing worked for me, IE Run as Admin, Read-only, reset router, release/renew IP, disable firewall etc

I then started to open some of the files (using Notepad) to check out the contents and these are the 2 important ones I believe.

C:\Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\boot\ffxivboot.ver

C:\Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\game\ffxivgame.ver

My ffxivboot.ver was reporting this version number

2014.01.18.0000.0001

However my ffxivgame.ver was blank. I copied the version number and pasted it into ffxivgame.ver and saved it. I then ran up the launcher and my game started downloading a 657mb patch with February dates, so after the 2014.01.18 my version number was reporting. Once it finished download/updating these I could play.

Hope this helps someone, judging from the number of posts there are obviously numerous reasons for this error to pop.

thank you so much, it solved my problem
had wrong version number in ffxivgame.ver (in Windows Vista)

Thank you! This fixed it for me, however my version was correct but my 'Region' was different. Had to change 0 to 3 and now it works perfect.

I get this error....get it fixed....now I try to log in....gets to the loading before character is logged in with the Moogle at bottom right and it keeps loading and get "server error (2)(17)." Had someone log me in and put me in my inn. I was able to log in.Testing teleporting and stuff now...I try to teleport to Moh Dohna....and get the same "server error(2)(17)"....Anyone know a way this can be fixed? Thank you...

EDIT:Worked (I am guessing) in non populated zones, when teleporting to those zones. I can't get into Mohr Dohna without it doing the error(2)(17)...any suggestions? Maybe due to populated zone? I know my GFX card can handle it though. I really do not understand. Should I ask for a backup on my character?

-Updated latest Direct X
-Complete new HDD and newly installed windows 7 64 bit
-Have done all Window Updates
-Even uninstalled the virus program I usually use, Avira, then started using Windows Defender.
-Game runs very smoothly on high settings still

-Currently trying to tweak with graphics, but I really don't think that is the issue

Only error is when I try to teleport to Mohr Dohna, it gets stuck at loading screen. Which is the Error (2)(17)... Please admin or anyone. Please help me figure this out.

Bad news for those who've tried the easy fixes and failed:

I tried uninstalling FFXIV, deleting the registry entries, reinstalling, etc. Nothing. It just flat wouldn't update or load properly. I even downloaded a fresh copy of the installer. Finally, I just reinstalled windows, since I like to do it about every 6 months anyways to keep everything running well. Now it works, after a full reinstall of windows and ffxiv. I kept my old FFXIV config folder from My Documents\My Games and it works just fine, so the problem wasn't there for me. Doing this will preserve your UI and stuff, since you won't be able to use the backup option on the loader since the thing won't load.

I have no clue what the problem could be, but it must be a conflict with a system file form another program or something. Either way, talk about frustrating. Enjoy reinstalling everything.
