That is extremely odd.

We need more details about your platform and install location etc.

I just tried in my fresh KiCAD 8 install in Windows and it works. I worked with @Bouni to renew the database download etc. a few months back and I cannot reproduce this:
grafik

That message suggests that KiCad is either not able to write to the plugin data location where the database is being downloaded to or it is not allowed to use the network connection.

Works for me as well. I guess its a permission problem on @Predator2k4 's machine

This issue can be closed.
I Tested it again, started KiCad 8 as Admin and the update works fine.
I checked it with no Admin rights and it wortked now too.
I have nothing changed, so I don't know what was the real issue.

Maybe some communication error with the JLCPCB Server or some hickup on my rig.

I'm sorry for the trouble :(

How I installed KiCad:
I have installed KiCad a drive (M) Not main Partition. The same way KiCad 7.
During the start up of KiCad, it asked, if I want to copy the Library from 7.0, wich i have done.

No Issue. Issue on user/server side.

ok so it's a non-standard install. it might have copied over some wrong ACLs that prevented the writing.
