Oolite Bulletins

Sort of got it 8) I updated the debian stable installation in virtual machine to testing and the problem manifested there too. The problem is probably some conflict between something in Debian Testing and libgnustep-base1.28 required. Why I'm assuming this? That NS error leads to gnustep and fulfill...

Right I saw the wrapper and thought the oolite was the correct one. And in the console it was just a name I'll look at the other oolite and yes, I get about the same libs as with the lsof. Strace and ltrace were used with PID, not executable, so I think I got that right

Thanks for all this, but still no real progress. I tried strace and ltrace and could not really identify anything useful from them. Command ldd just yields "not a dynamic executable". Command lsof then again was quite informative, but I could not identify anything useful from it. Hmm. This...

Here's what I have found out about my installation issue concerning expansion manager so far. If anyone has any idea what's going on, I would be very happy. 1. Installation is Debian testing that has been originally installed circa 2020. It's been naturally kept up to date, but a lot of thing have h...

@spara: if you want your alt deleted, just say the word and someone will oblige.

Yup, mspara has served it's purpose and can freely be deleted.

Now we're talking. Right you are. Found the correct one. And now it works. I think 1.91 creates an oolite.plist file into Defaults directory, and 1.90 uses .GNUstepDefaults file. I was editing the wrong file. Thanks. Got the 1.90 working. 1.91 still throws the same exception, so no help there.

Can't just let this be :D. I tried with the old 1.90, set the "oxz-index-url" to "https://addons.oolite.space/api/1.0/overview" (and also to http://addons.oolite.space/api/1.0/overview) and I get a 404 page into Oolite-download.plist. If I put the address into a browser, I get th...

Just for the fun of it, I deleted the installation, went through the GNUStep folder and at least tried to delete everything Oolite related. Then proceeded to make a home install and the result is the same: 16:11:55.579 [exception]: ***** Exception checking controls [pollDemoControls]: NSInvalidArgum...

Got the OoliteStarter working. Guess that's the tool for expansions now. Looking nice.

No dice. The same exception in the log. Maybe it's just some Linux thingy, a missing library, wrong execution rights somewhere or something. Who knows I'll look into the external solution.

Bugger. It was probably an old list from an old installation that came to haunt. In short, I can't get the in game manager to show anything. Here's what I have done: 1. Downloaded OoliteInstall-1.91.0.7617-240614-f930b3a-linux-dev-x86_64.run from github 2. Installed it system wide 3. Executed oolite...

Interesting. Maybe it's the Linux port? I checked it again. I removed the downloaded expansion list file, started the game, went to the "Download expansion list" and "Install expansion pack" is again empty.

Grabbed the latest pre-release dev version for Linux and was greeted with a crash. Ah, libgnustep-base must be downgraded to 1.28. Basic Linux stuff, downgraded the lib and the game starts with an empty expansion list. I've been following the conversation and know about the problems with the old add...

You're a wizard hiran! Thank you so much.

Wildeblood, you remember correctly, I still am a math teacher. Only upper secondary though, so not very high level. I'll think of something clever to say in mathematics, when I have just a bit more time.
