Very strange problem on Lutris startup

Do you have a VPN? Maybe when you connect via a different region you will get a connection to a different server. Those things are most commonly load balanced based on region.

Otherwise you could try to find a free proxy server and dial that into your network config.

I don’t have a VPN but I can try to find a decent free proxy or VPN online later.

I also ran a traceroute on lutris.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com and it dies out 7 hops in. I guess I just have to wait until that link is back.

Thanks a lot for your help tfk!

No problem. The persistent ones win. :sunglasses:

We covered a lot in this thread.

  • Running Lutris against different versions of Python (didn’t work in this case but it did give some information on the problem)
  • Running Lutris locally instead of installing a package (which installs system wide)
  • Checking out source from Github
  • Where the Lutris runners are located
  • Connection problems and possible ways to mitigate those

Happy Linux gaming! :+1:

Updated to lutris-0.5.3-3 just now and the error no longer shows up at start.
