I am trying to clone the source code and develope with UE4 (version 4.27.2). When I run the Setup.bat and update the dependencies, the terminal sent me an error shown below: Failed to download ‘[http://cdn.unrealengine.com/dependencies/UnrealEngine-7319411-858f05a05ed14057b3c3272843308b0a/3b5f05d9ce5ebb8441a688fd107579b6c44038bf](http://cdn.unrealengine.com/dependencies/UnrealEngine-7319411-858f05a05ed14057b3c3272843308b0a/3b5f05d9ce5ebb8441a688fd107579b6c44038bf)’:Unable to connect to the remote server (WebException) (403) forbidden.

Hi, I am pulling teeth with this error too, especially given that i have been using it with no issue for the past 2 months. I have even tried it on a second pc to no avail. I suspect the server is down but need confirmation from Epic because the error message is unclear. ---

A bit late in this already solved thread, but if it helps anyone going forward on an old release build, it’s worth looking at the releases pages on github. For 4.27.2-release for example, the assets listed here [https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/releases/tag/4.27.2-release](https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/releases/tag/4.27.2-release) solve this specific problem and give some legitimacy to the solution.
