Hello.
I continue my adventures on lutris in a very chaotic way but I keep on.
Every time i donwload a game from lutris with gog i have this message :
“The setup files are corrupted. Please obtian a new vopy of the program.”
« Started initial process 524 from /home/Me/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/data/lutris/runners/wine/wine-ge-8-26-x86_64/bin/wine /home/Me/Games/installer cache/bad-cheese-demo/gog/setup_bad_cheese_demo_2.3_(64bit)_(80582).exe /SP- /NOCANCEL
Start monitoring process.
fsync: up and running.
wine: RLIMIT_NICE is <= 20, unable to use setpriority safely
Still on POP Os, latest version of lutris updated. (flatpack 0.5.19 )
13th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-13400 × 16
Nvidia RTX 3060 TI 8GO.
Any idea ?
(except : “Go to windows” off course …but i can change linux distro )
This one’s more than a bit tricky iIve managed to reproduce the problem, and found the following to solve it - please kindly try on your side and confirm if this works as well for your case:
step 1)
Run a tool such as flatseal and check settings for Lutris, make sure these are like this:
under “Socket section”:
socket=11 → checked
socker=fallback-x11 → checked
it others are already checked, notable related to wayland, let them checked.
step 2)
issue the following command in a terminal:
xhost +
then start lutris:
flatpak run net.lutris.Lutris
in my case, this will allow the installer to start.
For reference, using Gnome wayland on arch current.
In case you don’t have ‘xhost’ command you need to install adequate packages (check your distro’s doc)
“access control disabled, clients can connect from any host” is cause by the xhost + command, and is expected.
I noticed while debugging that the function that returns error failed (silently unless debugging heavily) that related error were occuring, hence the idea of using xhost +.
To be noted that it allowed me to install the game, but not to run it, despite trying a ****load of configuration tweaks.
If possible at all, I’d recommend either:
using regular lutris package from your distro
or, if you want the very last updates try the master version from githbub (in that case, also first install the distro package for lutris, as it will install the many required dependencies):
git clone https://github.com/lutris/lutris.git
cd lutris
./bin/lutris -d
The flatpak version is great in case you are using a device missing native package management (SteamDeck and similar), as it is the easiest, if not only, method of using Lutris in that case - but it comes at the cost of added complexity in terms of interactions with the system (accessing files, drivers, permissions, access to message buses etc.). If your device is a regular PC, you’ll find only advantages to NOT use the flatpak version, IMHO
The problem is that this issue also appears on the native version of the distro.
Well, by uninstalling and reinstalling the native version, it seems to be gone… For now!
Thank you for trying to help me anyway !
EDIT : And… I just noticed a thing…it may be stupid but…is that by chance…VPN can disrupt downloads?
I just saw that depending on the server chosen, my downloads are working or not. (for the same games). I no longer get the error message.
yes, VPN can be a source of trouble with many CDN (such as those used GOG, Steam, EGS etc.), as many networks used for assigning IP addresses to these VPN customers tend to get blacklisted as a pure precaution by CDN admins or following to massive abuses numbers related to the IP range, getting even worse when the VPN provider is one of those who don’t cooperate for abuse solving).
Well, my big problem was just a story of vpn…content, but at the same time, that’s a problem for a little thing xD
I still have a last “big” problem solved (on a future topic) and I could be playing one day MAYBE on my linux pc ^^
…but i can change linux distro )
