Anyone Else Get a "wrong cdkey" Error While Running New Beta Patch Update?

[chetubet 1]

As the title says... I keep getting an error that pops up as the Beta patch update is installing that says "wrong cdkey" and it won't let the install finish. Yes, I've tried opening the game in steam as administrator first... Yes, I've re-installed OA... Yes, I removed the OA entries in my regedit and verified game cache in steam... Nothing I've tried seems to fix this problem.

Anyone have some insight about this issue?

Much appreciated :)

Plenty of posts about this, use search to find the answer :)

Yes constantly, usually to do with the amount of mods i am running, but i just ignore it and the patch updates anyway... No Biggy.

Oh yes and use the "Search function" next time, may save you some typing and waiting :P

hmm thanks... I did try to search around a bit before posting and olny found post about the invalid cd key error while the game is loading up. Could not find much about the "wrong cdkey" error. Perhaps you could point me in the right direction :D

To be honest it is nothing to worry about as the patch will update regardless.

Really, it doesn't matter? I was trying to update to 106400 but Commander says I still have 103718.

Thanks!

Yes, I've tried downloading and running that installer, and thats when the error pops up. But are you trying to say even though the error comes up, the patch was still applied?

Mine does, every time. I just click the ok in the error box and it continues to update.

Hmm, maybe I'm okay then. The reason all this came about in the first place is becuase I cannot join Origin or certain private hive servers without getting disconnected and I thought it might have been because I'm running an old version of the beta patch.

Is it disconnecting you while already in game? and check what Origin version you are running as some servers will run the older patch. (Origins patch) Maybe a screenshot of the error message you get in game or is it just simple straight DC?

I made a post about it yesterday, and did'nt really get much feedback other than the possibility that my beta patch is out of date. I'll copy paste below, most of what I said in my post from yesterday about the issue im having getting DCed...

"After I connect to the server and either immediately or sometimes within a couple minutes of spawning, a transparent window will all of a sudden appear that says nothing but "Private George Smith" "Duration: 0 min" on the top left and has a disconnect button on the bottom right and I cant do anything else but press disconnect. My friends say it shows me still in the server but just in the menu... After I click the disconnect button it brings me to an all grey screen, which I cannot escape out of and I have to ctrl+alt+del and force close the program. I am sure I am running all the right versions and I can play in any official dayzmod hive servers just fine. It's only certain private hive and all origin servers in which this occurs for me."

There you have it.. I tried to take an SS of the screen but when ever I try it just comes up as an SS of my desktop lol.

I'm having the same problem. I have tried the beta build you guys have provided, and in DayZ Commander, and even re-installed Arma II AND OA, and it keeps saying wrong CD Key, and if I click ok, it says successfully updated to 1.62 not 1.62.103718. I'm very frustrated about this, and I'd like to find out how to fix this. I can't take Gyazo pictures because they won't come out for some odd reason, but anywho it says Wrong CD Key then I click ok and then after clicking ok it says,"Please be patient. This update may appear to take a long time to complete. It is updating and installing very large data.

Verifying ArmA2 OA, version 1.62...

ArmA2 OA patch 1.62 has been applied successfully." when I launch the 103718 updater, not 1.62.
