Mac Homecoming Launcher stalled

[ThaOGDreamWeaver]

Hello - after today's downtime, I'm trying to log back in.

 

- The Launcher's telling me updates are needed...

- ...but the Homecoming update is stuck at 0%.

- Trying to close the launcher freezes it.

- Trying to download either of the other instances (Beta/Prerelease) freezes the launcher.

- Asking Wine if it wants an update freezes the launcher.

- Disabling auto-update allows the Launcher to run and connect, but obviously with the wrong version I can't access the game.

 

At a guess, it's trying to contact an update server and gettin' nuthin'. I've added Firewall permissions to talk to the outside world, though it's not needed them before, still nuthin'. Activity Monitor shows no Network access or requests from the Windows Server process.

 

Any ideas?

After much swearing, had to ditch the entire COH folder, installer and Wine and reinstall from cold - that got it working again.

Other than being forced to install Cisco @£$!%$'ing Webex this afternoon, I've not done anything that would cause that... hopefully resolved.
