Spring RTS Engine

Hello,
I run opensuse linux (x86_64), i install spring with accAgon packages, it run fine but since 3 days, after uptdate to 0.80.5.2, it doesn 't work...
This is what i hahe to launch spring :

> spring
using default configuration source "/home/AnteraK/.springrc"
[CMyMath::Init] CPU SSE mask: 126, flags:
SSE 1.0: 1, SSE 2.0: 1
SSE 3.0: 1, SSSE 3.0: 1
SSE 4.1: 1, SSE 4.2: 0
SSE 4.0A: 0, SSE 5.0A: 0
using streflop SSE FP-math mode, CPU supports SSE instructions
OS: Linux
OS: 64bit native mode
Content error: specify data directories using absolute paths please

My .springrc is

Fullscreen=1
WindowPosX=32
WindowPosY=32
WindowState=0
XResolution=1024
YResolution=768
SpringData= /home/AnteraK/.spring ; /usr/share/games/spring

Can y help me !
thanks

spaces?

nope, i try with only one path, with coma, ' , " , ` ... i doesn't work,

is there someone who can copy his own .springrc ?

?

Seperate paths with a colon: ":"

i try with only one path, with 2 paths with :,; ... and it seems springData line is not read by spring . I don't know what happen ! spring will work for months and months until 3 days ago (last update to 80.2.5 it seems)
Is anybody have an idea i will take it .

Checked /etc/spring/datadir file?

no, there is no /etc/spring/datadir files . i m afraid that the opensuse's pakager have make mistake on the last build. can y know how to join AccAgon ?


edit : no, i build my own spring from source, and same mistakes occures.
I dont understand what happen . . ...

[Dave, I m afraid, dave]

create /etc/spring/datadir as a text file, and add only the path to your data dir.

Useless

I think it s useless to have a /etc/spring/datadir files. nevertheless, i make it, but, there s always the same errors.

I use another repository to install spring,
i change path, put one only path, download new base, maps, and mods to put into it. i install opensuse 11.2, create a new user, and i ve always the same fail.
I don t understand .
I run opensuse 11.2, 64b . desperate I am !

i even try with 32 bits version !!

i think something is missing in my .spring folder .I have base/ ; ctrlpanel.txt ; LuaUI/ ; maps/ ; PALETTE.PAL ; teamcolors.lua ; cmdcolors.txt ; fonts/ ; luaui.lua ; mods/ ; selectkeys.txt ; uikeys.txt


Is there something missing ?

There are 2 possibilities:
1. The package maker made a mistake packagin spring (or there was a bug in a build script), but then it should not work on any opensuse.
2. You have made a mistake when setting the datadir paths which can be in 3 places:
1. .springrc
2. /etc/spring/datadir
3. the SPRING_DATADIR env variable
if you delete all these, it should work.

Where did you get your spring from?

thanks. I will try this 3 ways.
I take spring from accAgon's package. But i think there a mystake : i take it from another package and build spring with same error
...

thanks for the help

SPRING_DATADIR var is null. /etc/spring/datadir is /home/AnteraK/spring, as in ~/.sprinrc ... but it always fail. I don t understand. I will try tomorow with new user .

i really don t understand what happen. I m playing spring since 0.4, i run linux from several years, and i never see such hell, with spring or anything else.


If it will fail too, i move to fedora constantine.

I have the same problem than you, also with opensuse 11.2 on x64 platform. Did you already solved it ?

I am getting mad also :)

none.
If someone can join AccAgon , it would be helpful i think. I try to change repositories and add some that provides lib used by spring ... I will tell y if it solve probleme.

I have installed the rpm from the http://download.opensuse.org/repositori ... SUSE_11.2/ repository and I have had the same problem.

Also I tried to install the version from packman repository ... idem result

My data directory is: /home/roger/jocs/1944/

I have "straced" the spring process:

So, it looks like that the binary reads the config file without problems, also it can red/write at the data directory, but it still breaks on error.

I have created a symbolic link to /usr//usr/share/games/spring/ bypass the error show ... but I get the same result:

So thats not the problem

TIA.

Opps !!! I have straced the version from packman rather than the version of accAgon.

Anyway the result is very similar, just to clarify:
