Re: MojoSetup installer
the error message is slightly misleading, but it means the lobby was unable to load unitsync.so at all ( a vital lib to play, since it lists maps, mods, ecc )
launch the lobby from a console and you'll get full output log, including the unitsync actual error ( a common error with this package is different .so object names), then upload such log at http://pastebin.ca and post it back the resulting url

Re: MojoSetup installer
It is most likely missing a library, while I included most of them in the installer I did leave out some of the more common ones like libSDL and libGLEW which you should have installed through your distribution.
Like BD said run springstart.sh in a console to see the exact error.

Re: MojoSetup installer
Thanks for the help, Guys.
I really appreciate.:
Nemoder: I have LibSDL installed:
But I don't have libGLEW in my pc neither in portage stable branch.
=> The file unitsync.so exists at ~/Spring and SpringLobby it's correcly configurated at Tools>SpringSettings.
somehow,( ) I belive the problem is related to wxWidgets.
My available wxWidgets are:

Re: MojoSetup installer

My problem is my system was missing media-libs/openal.
I'm already playing.

Re: MojoSetup installer
I've updated springlobby for the installer as requested. I'm getting a lot of runtime warnings about missing catalog files that I do not know how to fix but it seems to be working so I'm just going to ignore them.
Re: MojoSetup installer
Hi i have installed the 32 bit installer and can enter the lobby and chat but when i set a game up and press the start button nothing happens. can anyone help??? i'm running fedora 9 btw
Re: MojoSetup installer
You are probably missing a library, make sure you have installed everything listed in the readme. If you run springstart.sh from a terminal you can see what the actual error is.Pug2 wrote:Hi i have installed the 32 bit installer and can enter the lobby and chat but when i set a game up and press the start button nothing happens. can anyone help??? i'm running fedora 9 btw
Re: MojoSetup installer
I've updated the installer for the new release.
I have tried to include as many libs as feasible but I have intentionally left out libGLEW so that it won't interfere with the version that ships with video drivers and libSDL because most modern distros use the same version and it has too many dependencies on all the various sound servers. But let me know if there are any others you are missing that I have accidentally left out.

Re: MojoSetup installer
I used this installer to install Spring, it works fine as root but I can't connect as normal user. Here's the error:
libopenal.so.1 Cannot open file, no such blah blah..
Then I get:
Cannot get version number from unitsync library
The program doesn't seem to be reading the unitsync library.
I am using the springstart.sh file to start the game.
any help?
thanks

Re: MojoSetup installer
It does not work well if you install it as root and try to run it as a user. If you run the installer as a user then it should work for that user.
Re: MojoSetup installer
It won't install as a normal user. It dies.
Re: MojoSetup installer
The installer dies? Is there an error? How far does it get?
Re: MojoSetup installer
It gets this far as normal user:
NOTICE: Initial Lua setup failed. Cannot continue.
[hit enter]

Re: MojoSetup installer
Does your user have full permissions to read from the installer file?Widgeteye wrote:It gets this far as normal user:

[hit enter]
chmod a+rx spring-installer*
I don't know what else would cause this.
Re: MojoSetup installer
yes the permissions are 777.
Re: MojoSetup installer
Not sure why it wouldn't work then..
You can always move the files to your user dir but you'll have to manually fix the permissions and change the directories listed in the files springstart.sh, ~/.springrc, and ~/.springlobby/springlobby.conf
If you want to help narrow it down you could try some other games that use mojosetup and see if they have the same problem:
http://icculus.org/prey/
http://savage2.s2games.com/download.php

I tried http://icculus.org/prey/ and tried to install prey using the installer and get the same error as normal user. I set the permissions 777 on the installer.

But it works as root. Any ideas???
This is weird, eh?
Thanks
Re: MojoSetup installer
It must be something in mojosetup itself that doesn't like your system configuration. All I can suggest is to file a bug report for it:
http://bugzilla.icculus.org/enter_bug.c ... =MojoSetup
http://bugzilla.icculus.org/enter_bug.c ... =MojoSetup

Re: MojoSetup installer
I'm in Fedora 10 and I can only run the springlobby as root after installing as a normal user. Here is a pastebin of my error message as a normal user.
