Auto update failed Fatal: GetSteamGameInfos Exception

[Striker Lord]

When the auto updater runs it keeps getting the following errors: 2016-12-19 00:00:07.5635|Fatal: GetSteamGameInfos Exception Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: Additional text encountered after finished reading JSON content: ,. Path '', line 3, position 1. at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonTextReader.Read() at Newtonsoft.Json.Serialization.JsonSerializerInternalReader.Deserialize(JsonReader reader, Type objectType, Boolean checkAdditionalContent) at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializer.DeserializeInternal(JsonReader reader, Type objectType) at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(String value, Type type, JsonSerializerSettings settings) at Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObjectT at SESM.Tools.Helpers.SteamCMDHelper.GetSteamGameInfos(Int32 appId, String syncDirPath, Logger logger)

I am thinking this has to do with something SteamCMD is expecting, but i don't know what to look for.

What would be needed to troubleshoot this further or what is needed to fix this? Forced update does work, so that is our workaround right now.

It appears to be an issue that SteamCMD isn't finishing the output in the proper timeframe.

I have a similar issue when I attempt to have the updater do a full download, but the 180 seconds only gets 85% of the game before SESM kills it. The result leaves me with this every time after.
