Marketplace is empty

[R3D9477]

Hi. I'm facing trouble that marketplace is empty. Maybe it is somehow related with messages in the terminal:

UE4LinuxLauncher/Compiled$ ./start.sh
java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: /marketplace/en-US/
org.json.JSONException: A JSONObject text must begin with '{' at 1 [character 2 line 1]

Experiencing the same

Same for me. I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.

It appears Epic Games changed their marketplace access protocol. The JSON exception is likely the program attempting to parse the blank packet it expects to be populated.

This past week, I've been working on fixing the issues with this launcher that were brought on by Epic Games' backend changes. I forked this repository and updated it with the bug fixes I found. The marketplace and login issues should be fixed there.
