Unable to update OXP list

Post by thecoredump »

I haven't check Oolite in a while and now I get an error while trying to update the OXP list :
19:27:08.037 [plist.parse.failed]: Failed to parse C:\Users/jerry/Jeux/Oolite/oolite.app/GNUstep/Library/Caches/org.aegidian.oolite/Oolite-download.plist as a property list.
Parse failed at line 1 (char 9) - extra data after parsed string
19:27:08.039 [oxz.manager.error]: Downloaded manifest was not a valid plist, has been left in C:\Users/jerry/Jeux/Oolite/oolite.app/GNUstep/Library/Caches/org.aegidian.oolite/Oolite-download.plist
19:27:12.300 [exit.context]: Exiting: Exit Game selected on start screen.
19:27:12.303 [gameController.exitApp]: .GNUstepDefaults synchronized.


My Oolite-download.plist contains only "Invalid Request".

Please, help.

Have you pointed the game to use the new domain?

If you already have done this / it doesn't help, tell, please, which game version and OS you use.

Might be interesting to know the content of

Code: Select all

C:\Users/jerry/Jeux/Oolite/oolite.app/GNUstep/Library/Caches/org.aegidian.oolite/Oolite-download.plist
.

But solutions could be to either reconfigure the builtin Expansion manager or use the Oolite Starter that I am about to create.

Can we get that link on the main page? Would be useful to have under Latest News.

Thank you, I had seen that there was a domain issue but it seemed to me that if it had had an impact on the game itself it would have been put a little more forward.
I agree with arquebus, this should be pinned somewhere.

I think in the latest pre-release the new domain is already preset. Which brings up the question why it not a good reason to release the game?

If you are referring to our wiki, just let me know what text you want put up, and I'll get onto it.
Comments wanted:
Missing OXPs? What do you think is missing?

Lore: The Space Traders Flight Training Manual: Cowell & MgRath Do you agree with Redspear?

I wonder if this might be a syntax error in your .plist (which you presumably edited to point to the new site).

Maybe if you posted the .plist contents for us?

No I'm referring to the front page of oolite.space. The "Latest News..." bulletin in the top right should have, well, the latest news. And right now that's the shift to oolite.space.

My problem is solved. As Alnivel pointed out, I added the new oxz-index-url in the .GNUstepDefaults file.
