Update Error : Request could not be sent

[SewageJuice]

Soo I've just finish download lotro 22gb, I was so damn excited to play like ohh yeahh and then this happened. Request could not be sent...I cant even log in like there's no option to log in. After checking product at 55% the error happened and stuck at retry 60s loop. I've tried everything disabling proxy and so on. I'm on pc please help?

But I had this error since yesterday...

Unfortunately I dont see any solution to my problem as well..oddly enough this only happens to mac users but im a pc

for some users, downloading the game from turbine directly and installing that copy works (even though they are supposed to be the same).

Alright, thanks for the screenshot. Please try the following.

Open 'Steam' > Click 'Games' (top left hand corner) > click 'View Games Library" > Scrolls and find 'The Lord of the Rings Online' > right click 'The Lord of the Rings Online' and right-click 'properties' > click 'local' files > click 'verify integrity of game cache'

Once that has completed I would suggest restarting your computer and relaunching the Lotro application.
