Linux directory error in newest spring from GIT

Hi. After downloading and compiling the newest spring (without error), I get an error message when trying to run it..
Code: Select all
Content error: Error: datadir specified with relative path: " /home/d513a/.spring/"
It is obvious that this is because of the space in front of the path, as this is checked in the code in DataDirLocater.cpp (the path should start with a /). I just can't seem to find out why this space is there.
My $HOME is without this space when I echo it in the terminal, and it worked fine before updating. I can see some changes have been made in this area recently, so maybe an error somewhere?

... having a look at the code ...
edit:
or better: give us the command you use to compile spring.

I just do the following:
cmake .
make
sudo make install
then I run spring with spring script.txt, where script is taken from a springlobby game
in other words, I do nothing special.
Edit:
just saw the following
Code: Select all
using default configuration source "/home/d513a/.springrc"
[CMyMath::Init] CPU SSE mask: 124, flags:
SSE 1.0: 1, SSE 2.0: 1
SSE 3.0: 1, SSSE 3.0: 1
SSE 4.1: 0, 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: 32bit native mode
Content error: Error: datadir specified with relative path: " /home/d513a/.spring/"
So at first it doesn't have the space?

hmm :/ ok
yeah that should work of course.
do you use
/usr/local/games/bin/spring (the self compiled one) then? cause i guess you also have
/usr/games/bin/spring.
my best bet currently is, that you have it defined yourself somewhere with a path, as the spring internal one:
AddDirs(SubstEnvVars("$HOME/.spring"));
looks non-bugged.
(i should have though on that first actually
)
check your
/etc/spring/datadir file if you have one, and in
~/.springrc, look for
SpringData.

ah yeah, forgot to say:
of you have something in there.. it is better to delete it, instead of setting it to ~/.spring, as this dir is always added automatically anyway

Ok, both those existed, and had the correct path. Deleting them removed the error though :)
But I then get a new error (yay) .. it now can't load the map
Code: Select all
Content error: Couldn't load archive 'wuhu.smf' for map 'Wuhu.smf'.
Changing the casing in the script file doesnt help :/
Also double checked the map and mod hash in the script file. Any ideas?

i found the bug, fixed with this:
http://github.com/spring/spring/commit/ ... 39333b8acf
thanks!
about the thing with the map..
i do not know much about that part, but looking at the code, it seems like the archive simply could not be read. is it there? is it the only map that fails? does it work if you open it with zip?

3 maps tried, all fails. They are all there
tried one of them in zip, works fine. Very weird :/ The funny thing is that it works if I just start up spring, and choose a map in there.. but not through springlobby.

I just did a complete reinstall (in a virtual machine) of ubuntu and then compiled spring.. still get this error.
I see that Auswaschbar rewrote all of this just 2 days ago, so maybe we should get him to take a look at it? :)

Works for me. What maps did you tried (never heard of a wuhu map)?
