GitDependencies.exe very very slow

Development Programming & Scripting

Hello,

I am trying to build from github source. When I run Setup.bat, the state “Updating Dependencies” takes around 8 hours.
How can I debug the cause of this?

The behaviour is very strange, the download proceeds with small chunks of download and then it stops for several minutes.

I have Kaspersky installed, if this might help. I have no permission to turn it off unfortunately.

Cloning the engine from github was slow too, but nothing compared to this dependency pass.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks

Is anybody else experiencing the same slowdown? Could it be some maintenance in the servers today ?

goto https://www.speedtest.net/ and post your internet speed here.
Note that cloning and downloading dependencies is about 14GB in size. on slow internet this could take hours.

It was the firewall of my company blocking the extensions file of the package dependencies.

I work it out by adding

13.35.122.105 cdn.unrealengine.com

to the hosts file at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

If this doesn’t work,try to find latest IP of “cdn.unrealengine.com”
