Unable to install: stacked at downloading sound files.

Post by williamwoles »

Hey,

I'm having trouble to install the game. I have java 1.6 and 1.7 installed on my pc (OS: Windows 7). It seems that Java 1.7 is selected by Web Start to launch application. The following error is what is being displayed in JVM console:
WARN - 2013-02-10 17:57:29,570 - [pool-1-thread-1]: Restarting stalled download: Soundeffects and Music
WARN - 2013-02-10 17:57:29,585 - [pool-1-thread-1]: Restarting stalled download: Soundeffects and Music
WARN - 2013-02-10 17:57:29,588 - [pool-1-thread-1]: Restarting stalled download: Soundeffects and Music
WARN - 2013-02-10 17:57:29,601 - [pool-1-thread-1]: Restarting stalled download: Soundeffects and Music

Any tips on solving this?

Thanks.

Delete one java.. usually most keep the latest deleting the earliest for security reasons. Retry to download and post the error file. The error file should be found in the Illarion folder/documents if you got that far in the download.
This is a good reference also: http://illarion.org/community/forums/vi ... =3&t=37419

I seriously doubt that deleting one Java version will solve this issue, Achae...

Does the issue persist? One possible reason could be a disconnect during downloading, but Nitram might know more.

Something is blocking the download. Can't tell you more from those logs. Might be a problem with a firewall or a anti-virus application blocking the download.

Hey, Windows Firewall is Turned Off since the day i purchased PC :D, antivirus not running for ages also :D! I attached screenshot, don't think it will help solve something, but at least you can keep it as reference for this issue. If you could next release add some debug messages in that part of code I would try again. The temporary sound file seem to download 7MB, but after it goes again to 0..

I'm interested to install the game more in the sense of experimenting your project, maybe if you interested and if I like what I see try to contribute something. I have already some Java game programming experience and looking for expanding my skills, learn some techniques you used for programming and maybe to bring some know-how (if my skills are good enough for that ;) ). I might demonstrate you my online 2D RPG like tower of defense (it has some similarities to Dota or LoL). The game engine was developed entirely by me (and that's probably the biggest mistake I've done programming my game :mrgreen: ), so I understand basics of game programming and have some weekly hours to play around with game coding.

Hey the source code is open source and you can look at it on github.

As for those resources I know that SOME have the problem that one very specific file, that is for every person a different one just does not download. It downloads a share of it and restarts the download after this because no more data is downloaded. I have clue why this happens. Once the file is changed even slightly the download works perfectly fine.
