Launcher returned -1 after downloading 0.9

[Zireael07]

Auto-update failed (something about not being able to access?), so I downloaded 0.9 manually.

Can't start, get an error about "launcher returned -1".

0.8.5. works fine.

Can you check the file %LOCALAPPDATA%\CDDA Game Launcher\app.log? Check out if there is some error near the end of it or send me the whole file.

[Zireael07]

Nope, nothing in the log (I deleted the file, ran 0.9., no file. Ran 0.8.5 and the file was created with 0.8.5 being the only line)

[remyroy]

Can this try this launcher? It is the exact same one as 0.9 except that it does not hide its stdout and stderr which shows as a command line window.

If the command line window closes too fast for you to see the error message, first start a command line window and run it from there.

I would need the error message from the output.

'No translation file found for domain cddagl'
.. and some line numbers I couldn't catch as it closed, something in gettext.py?

The path is fairly long so command line sucks :(

[remyroy]

Hmm, that is weird. The translation files should be included with the launcher.

When the launcher start, it should create a directory named _MEI followed by a bunch of numbers. That directory should be in %TEMP%. It should also contain a cddagl\locale with a few directories and files like cddagl\locale\en\LC_MESSAGES\cddagl.mo for English for instance. Can you see those files?

[remyroy]

In any case, I'm currently adding some code to check for translation files missing and make sure the launcher can still run even if they are.

[remyroy]

This should be partially fixed with 0bde2af. There might be like an antivirus or another process that prevent the localization files from being read or extracted in that _MEI directory for some reason.

[Zireael07]

There are a few _MEI folders in my %TEMP%, but the most recent one is three days old. It does contain cddagl, but not locale.

I tried running the provided launcher a few more times, but no dice.

.. I guess my %TEMP% needs a good clean, by the way. First thing to do when I have access to my own computer tomorrow :P

[remyroy]

Try the new 0.9.1 version and see if it works better for you. It includes the fix in 0bde2af.

[remyroy]

This should be fixed with the recent commits and the resolution of #40 .
