How to Fix the Destiny 2 Olive Error
So, here are some troubleshooting fixes that have the potential to resolve Destiny 2 Olive error:
Fix 1: Checking for a Server Issue
The best way to start this troubleshooting guide is by checking to see if other Destiny 2 players in your area are experiencing the same issue before you try any other fix that has been confirmed to work by an affected user.
It is recommended that you begin by investigating whether there is actually an issue with your server before beginning to fix it. This particular error code often indicates a server issue, so start by checking whether a widespread issue exists.
It is possible to check to see if other users in your area are experiencing the same issue as you using services such as Outage Report and DownDetector.
Check out Bungie’s official Twitter Destiny 2 support account and the status page of Destiny 2 to see if there are any official announcements regarding the server issues, even if you find no evidence of issues related to Destiny 2 servers.
Fix 2: Restarting the PC / Console
You may want to try restarting the platform if you haven’t already done so before starting this troubleshooting guide. There is no difference between the current-gen consoles (Xbox One and PlayStation 4) and Windows.
Then, launch the game again once the next startup has been completed on the PC by closing the game, clicking Windows Power > Restart, and waiting for the next startup to complete.
It is not sufficient to restart a console since both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One retain some temp files that cannot be cleared via an ordinary restart. Therefore, if you encounter an error on a console, you should perform a power cycle.
Fix 3: Connect With a Bungie Account
When a Destiny 2 player is not connected to a Bungie account, they will receive the ‘Olive’ error code. After connecting with a valid Bungie account, several affected users confirm that the issue has been resolved.
It would be a good idea to restart Destiny 2 and follow through when asked to set up a Bungie account if you haven’t already. You should then join an online game and check if the problem has been resolved after you’ve done this.
Fix 4: Reinstall Destiny 2 (Only for PC)
There is a tendency for Destiny 2 error code Olive to appear after removing it from Battle.net to Steam. In most cases, leftover files are to blame. It is recommended that you uninstall Destiny 2 via battle.net, clear the cache data, and reinstall it via Steam.
- Open the Programs and Features window by pressing Win + R, typing appwiz.cpl, and click OK.
- Right-click Battle.net and select Uninstall. You can also do this with Destiny 2.
- Run %PROGRAMDATA%/Battle.net and press Enter to open a folder. Delete all the files in the folder. Repeat this step for %APPDATA%/Battle.net, %LOCALAPPDATA%/Battle.net, and %APPDATA%\Bungie\DestinyPC.
- If the error still persists, restart your PC, install and launch Destiny 2 via Steam, and check the error log.
