Upcoming Disruption of Service Impacting Unreal Engine Users on GitHub

@Amanda.Schade Any word on this? I’m not able to work on a project anymore due to not being able to download specific old commits of UE. Will this never be possible to do again?

I was able to update my Commit.gitdeps.xml for 4.27+ from the git repo and this resolved 99% of the dependency gather step! However, I’m still finding a missing file at the very end:

[type or paste code here](http://cdn.unrealengine.com/dependencies/UnrealEngine-18640418/68a72e1390f1a71cf0c6107b6bd61abce2667c58)

Just got 403 forbidden on 5.0.0-release, can’t run setup.bat!

Can anyone else confirm?

I can confirm that 4.27Plus from the perforce server is still not updated. Just got latest on everything and it won’t build.

Going to see if the version on GitHub works.

Looks like it’s working with the file from GitHub. Seems they might not be updating the perforce server with the new dependency files.

i try to run “setup.bat” but it gives me an error “failed to download …403 forbiden”
Unreal engine 4.10.4 release
is it just me having this problem?

5.0.3 still has the problem right ?@ Amanda Schade

@Amanda.Schade

Are any more dependencies of the older versions going to go back online? I can’t build 4.9.2

How about 4.24? Dose it in your plan?

No, they just removed the ability to download those files.

There is a stupid hololens error that shows up on 4.26 build. fix it!

Really frustrating, this destroyed the project I was working on completely. I can’t access any source builds any more from specific commits.

thanks a lot, you save my life

Help… 4.16.3 Failed 98%…

it works, thx!

Go here:
https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/blob/5.0/Engine/Build/Commit.gitdeps.xml
and click on the button “download raw file”
replace the file in the engine directory.

Just fixed it for me

Download Commit.gitdeps.xml from https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/releases/tag/4.27.2-release, replace the file in Engine\Build, It’s OK for me.

If you read your error, it’s because the path name is too long. Try reinstalling your UE somewhere else on your pc. Do not burry the install location under multiple different directories.

I got the same error, trying to build 4.27 on linux today just so you know.
