hackoon: again, that log is not from 1.71.2, it is from the trunk or a nightly. The nightlies are not 1.71.2.

Most of the errors in your log – in particular, the weird strings.expand.recursionLimit one – do not occur for me under Linux with the trunk. Either your Oolite installation or your copy of AsteroidStorm is broken.

this is the log from the WORKING 1.71.1 version
notice that your find the

can you please tell my your glibc, and distro version? and your startup log as well

Post by **another_commander** » Tue May 20, 2008 3:42 pm

I am not running Linux, but looking at the last log you posted, one thing becomes obvious: You have a very badly broken installation and, although you think 1.71.1 works, I can assure you that something is terribly wrong with it.

1. First off, the log you have posted above is not 1.71.1. It is a 1.71.1 type executable running on version 1.72 datafiles. This is guaranteed to be problematic. The executable should be running on its own version datafiles. Different version executable and datafiles are not interchangeable.

2. The game complains that it cannot recurse into the AddOns directory. This indicates a problem with the directory structure of the game, which means a problem with its installation.

3. The strings.expand.recursionLimit error is a serious one and it is not expected under a normal install of Oolite. The fact that you are getting it indicates a problem with the datafiles, which is also another indication of bad install.

We have already received reports from Linux users building and running 1.72 trunk without problems. I recommend you uninstall Oolite from your system and reinstalling it properly using the package file found at
https://developer.berlios.de/project/sh ... se_id=7424 (bottom of the list).

I don’t think this is a real problem. It’s just GNUstep being chatty about something that’s a silent error in OS X. I’ll add an explicit check for the presence of directories to the resource manager scanning code.

I’m one of them (at last). This worked for me, and is still working.

@hackoon:
1. Can you check how many occurences of the "oolite" executable you currently have? ("slocate" could help you on this)
2. How do you run Oolite? (i.e. terminal window, desktop icon etc.)

hackoon · Post by **hackoon** » Wed May 21, 2008 9:35 pm

just one /usr/bin/oolite
desktop icon
it is just the simple 1.71.2 package dev from berlios

please tell me your glibc version

hackoon · Post by **hackoon** » Thu May 22, 2008 11:28 am

can somebody just send a log from his own?
I deleted /usr/lib/Oolite reinstalled it a few times the log always says 1.72 whatever version I install. i downloaded from berlios so something is wrong with the version there or I don't know (getting a bit frustrated with this issue)

AddOns are looked for in /usr/lib/Oolite/oolite.app/AddOns NOT in /usr/lib/Oolite/AddOns! so something is wrong with your searchpath.

Commander McLane · Post by **Commander McLane** » Thu May 22, 2008 11:44 am

Sorry if I ask a really stupid question, but: What have you downloaded from BerliOs? On BerliOs there are both the current release 1.71.2 and the "trunk", the not-yet-released-because-it-is-worked-upon future version 1.72. I don't know how that looks for Linux people. Can they be confused?

Post by **Kaks** » Thu May 22, 2008 12:32 pm

The version number displayed is taken from the Resources/ directory(also known as the oolite datafiles).

As another_commander already said, it looks like you got the executable from the 1.71 branch with the datafiles from 1.72.

From what you've said so far, from here it seems that when oolite looks for the Resources directory, it goes where you told it to instead of its standard location. (you mentioned that the standard location isn't picked up by oolite in your computer)

What you might want to do is to put a symlink to the right location(the one containing the 1.71.x datafiles), or copy the contents of that into your non-standard datafiles location.

hackoon · Post by **hackoon** » Thu May 22, 2008 2:03 pm

look I have a standart config I installed from berlios package It just has AddOns in the wrong place (/usr/lib/Oolite/AddOns). I know it looks like it is the wrong binary but it is the one which comes from the packages and they are different at least in size from 1.71.2 and 1.71.1. can somebody install the packages an look what it says in the log? have you got a log telling oolite version 1.71.2? in the release.txt it always tell the right version.
For me it seems there is something wrong with the precompiled packages. who did them? can you check it out?

Post by **Kaks** » Thu May 22, 2008 3:09 pm

First of all, I'm at work atm, but when I'm back home I'll post you a copy of my stderr. However, allow me to clarify what me & other people on the board have tried to say: oolite is looking for the AddOns folder in /usr/lib/Oolite/AddOns, which is where it should be. It then looks for the Resources folder in /usr/lib/Oolite/oolite.app/Resources, which again it's where it should be.

If it recognises the AddOn folder where you say it does, then it means you have 2 resources folders on your computer.

One should be is in /usr/lib/Oolite/oolite.app/Resources, the other one should be in /usr/lib/Oolite/oolite.app/oolite.app/Resources

One of them is the right one for your Oolite(v1.71.2), the other one is for the dev version of oolite (v1.72) One of them is wrong, the other is right. And that's where all your problems are from.

Having said all that, in about 4 hours I should be able to show you a 'proper' linux log, from oolite 1.71.2.
Still, I'm not quite sure how that would help.

Post by **Kaks** » Thu May 22, 2008 7:50 pm

Well, I'm afraid I won't be any help.

Hackoon, I had a proper look at my linux installation: I had 1.71.1 installed, and the AddOns directory I was using was ~/.Oolite/AddOns/. I did find it easier to manage than using the /usr/lib/ directory tree. I quickly proceeded to install 1.71.2, but had no luck: autopackage seems to be very broken on my test system.

It tries to install 1.71.2, tells me it's installed, but there's no traces of Oolite in my linux partition anymore( apart from the ~/oolite-saves and the AddOns directories). If I look at the list of all applications that can be uninstalled with autopackage, I get the sum total of 1, autopackage itself.

After that non-event, I downloaded nuts and scrap + thunder and lightning ( 2 other autopackage games) & exactly the same thing happened with them...

Can anyone else confirm that 1.71.2 .package is working as expected? I'll have a good look at why autopackage is not working, but it could take a while...

hackoon · Post by **hackoon** » Thu May 22, 2008 9:23 pm

the resources are in the right place it seems that they come as 1.72 version with the package. anyway 1.71.1 has no problems with it as far as I have noticed.
anybody got something different?

searchpath is:
"/usr/lib/Oolite/oolite.app/Resources", AddOns, "/home/test/.Oolite/AddOns"
that means it will look into a folder called AddOns situated in the same directory oolite is started from
/usr/bin/oolite ->
cd $OOLITE_ROOT/$TOPLEVEL/oolite.app

that means /usr/bin/Oolite/oolite.app/AddOns is the place it is actually looking
NOT /usr/bin/Oolite/AddOns

could you please past the 1.71.1 log
thanks

Post by **Kaks** » Fri May 23, 2008 8:18 am

Unfortunately with autopackage on the fritz, I can't reinstall the package. I'll finish setting up the development environment on linux, and then I can grab 1.71.2 from trunk & compile. Then I'll be able to produce the log... I stupidly didn't save the 1.71.1 stderr before trying to install 1.71.2, the famous last thought was: 'it won't take a minute, anyway'.

If the 1.71.2 package is broken, and was the reason autopackage... well.. packed up on me, instead of me doing something stupid, and/or it's got 1.72 datafiles inside it, we need a Plan B.

Luckily I've just thought of Plan A: Getafix, Winston: is there a chance you can check out if the download package from BerliOS is broken? (mainly if it installs, and the datafiles/js scripts version), ta!

hackoon · Post by **hackoon** » Fri May 23, 2008 12:12 pm

you can extract the package manually

sh oolite-1.71.1.x86.package -x

version number in Info-gnustep.plist is 1.72
