There is a very similar question already posted, but in an effort to get some kind of response I’m risking the faux pas of posting this.
On build (lighting or otherwise) swarm agent boots up, then crashes.Unreal says “failed to connect to swarm”.
I have no firewall running and not anti-virus running. It seems to be a problem with verifying the ‘certificate’. I’m guessing this is some kind of .net issue. I have installed the latest MS updates of .net - so nothing funky going on there.
I have UDK from 2011 on this machine and that version of swarm runs just fine- unfortunately that doesn’t help me at all with unreal4 building.
Below are my logs.
