Not enough free space [RESOLVED]
Posted: Mon Jul 23, 2007 6:20 pm
So, I started installing Ryzom on my new computer, using this new "gradual" installer. It asked for 8GB free space when installation started. I had 9.2GB free, so I though, OK.
Now, I've decided to install only Silan for now, so I can play right away and download the rest later. "Download" phase finished okay. However, "Install" phase stops at about 50%. I tried three times, result is always the same: 1.05GB taken by Ryzom files, 8GB free space left and "Install" phase stopped at 50%-60% - not even bothering to tell me how much more free space it wants.
Anyway - SOLVED!
My inner geek suggested me to look for some logs. And indeed, I've found "ryzom_installer.log" in Ryzom directory. These are incriminating lines:
2007/07/23 21:00:31 WRN 384 client_background_downloader_rd.exe path.cpp 1890 :

Looks like, for some unknown reason, there was a system conflict over sound.bnp file. File was correctly unpacked, but it couldn't be moved to its' rightful destination.
So i moved it manually and restarted the install - and this time, it worked.
Being misled by completely false error message about "not enough free space", I never suspected that real cause could be something like this. Well anyway, it is solved now. Sorry for wasting your time.
