Content Caching Unavailable

Any help here?

I’ve been having this same issue. When I go into terminal and do AssetCacheManagerUtil the registration error for me is “Internal_Server_Error” with a registration response code of 500.

I was about to start another thread when I found this and I am having an identical issue.

I am using a MacMini as a Home Server and using it as my network Content Caching

server, I am getting tis error message in the log:

2019-02-06 14:14:38.302716-0500 0x5dd22b   Error       0x0                  83949  AssetCache: [com.apple.AssetCache:builtin] Request for registration from https://lcdn-registration.apple.com/lcdn/register failedhttps://lcdn-registration.apple.com/lcdn/register

What is also an issue that seems connected to it, if I have Content Caching enabled,

and it stays in this "unauthorized" state, downloading content in iTunes on this

machine ends up giving a download error and stops the download. If I disable

Content Caching, then all downloads on this machine work just fine.

Content Caching has been problematic for me ever since (during) the transition

from Server to macOS.

Update:

It seems that Content Caching "magically" started to work(?) again

sometime overnight. At least It seems I can download and iOS app

and it actually caches the download.

Will probably check to see if it works for Mac App Store downloads,

which has always been a hit and miss thing anyway, usually failing to

cache the largest of downloads, of course.

Caching is working for iOS devices but not for my Macs. Then again,

Content Caching for my Macs has always been a toss up as to whether

it would work or not. Moon probably isn't in the right phase today.
