Unable to host games

Postby Sanctusx2 » 24 Jan 2017, 00:55

As of about Saturday, my friends and are all unable to host games. Upon attempting to host a game, the client says:
Updating files: FAFGAMEDATA,
then an error message pops up: "An error has occurred in the FAF client. It has been automatically reported."

The line from the logs is:
Code: Select all
2017-01-23 14:50:53,174 ERROR    fa.upnp                        Exception in UPnP createPortMapping.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "src\fa\upnp.py", line 36, in createPortMapping
  File "C:\Miniconda\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\util.py", line 84, in next
com_error: (-2147220984, 'A user-supplied component or subscriber raised an exception', None, None)


It's strange that I can see other games being hosted, but none of my friends(4 of us) have been able to get the client working all at the same time. Everything was working great on Saturday. This all from our own homes in a variety of different locations, so it's not some local network issue.

Seems like a fix was pushed out. Can host games again as of today after a little update downloaded.

I still cant?
Is there anyway to force the update perhaps?
I have tried repairing and reinstalling, neither worked, perhaps my game path? But that looked fine.
