• Yes, it's written in PHP. No shame.

SteamCMD Errors

Error	Possible Reason
ERROR! Timed out waiting for AppInfo update.	Unknown
Login Failure: Rate Limit Exceeded (84)	Unknown
ERROR! Failed to install (No subscription)	Game not owned by any authorised accounts
Error! State is 0x202 after update job.	Not enough space to download game
Error! State is 0x402 after update job.	Update required but not completed - check network
Error! State is 0x602 after update job.	Update required but not completed - check network

For other error codes, you can calculate the app's state(s) by converting the 0x000 code to decimal, and finding which AppState codes sum to the given code, which will give you some clues as to what's going on.

For example:

• 0x402 to decimal = 1026
• 1026 is the sum of:
  • 2: StateUpdateRequired
  • 1024: StateUpdateStarted
