stderr - Error setting write dir(...): File not found

[Tribaldome]

Hi,

i am trying to develop WZ with VC++ 9.0 Express unter Windows Vista x64 SP2, i can compile it without errors, but the generated .exe file do not start...
First i tried just copying new file (5,63 MB) in a existing gamefolder and tried to start it but getting a lot error messages about missing dll's. After copying all .dll's from the "/data" folder, i got the following error message by using the link "D:\Programme(x86)\Warzone 2100 dev\Warzone2100-Dbg.exe" --debug all

stderr.txt

Code: Select all

wz      |05:48:32: [SDL_main] Using language: 
error   |05:48:32: [initialize_ConfigDir] Error setting write directory to "D:\Benutzer\Jens Grünewald\Documents\": File not found

may i have missed a description how to run a current version?

Does the directory exist, and with write permissions for your current user?

Yes, the folder exists and its my current used profile. I also tried to copy the data from an existing sub folder (Warzone 2100 2.2) and starting the application with administator rights, but both results with the same error...
Note: the folder is also used by the currrend release version 2.2.3 and work.

Well the Debugger throws the following:

So i have identified now that i have problems accessing the user dir (D:\User\My Name\Documents), but when i change the path (D:\Test\), everything is running.

main.c

Code: Select all

static void initialize_ConfigDir(void)
{
	//char tmpstr[PATH_MAX] = { '\0' };
	char* tmpstr="D:\\Test\\";

	if (strlen(configdir) == 0)
	{
		//getPlatformUserDir(tmpstr, sizeof(tmpstr));

		if (PHYSFS_setWriteDir(tmpstr) == 0) // Workaround for PhysFS not creating the writedir as expected.
		{
			debug(LOG_ERROR, "Error setting write directory to \"%s\": %s",
			      tmpstr, PHYSFS_getLastError()); // Here it throws me out when i use default user dir
			exit(1);
		}
(...)

Maybe this happen due to the fact that the path has a space in it?
