Amazon Games corrupted installed.json

I logged in to Amazon Games, but the games don't even load, and I can't log in again. Log's say it's corrupted installed.json. The content of the file is just "null%". I deleted it so that the program can recreate it, but it's the same again.

looks like you successfully logged in in terms of installed.json that shouldn't be a problem, however try changing it's contents to []

but the games don't even load

are you sure you are not in Epic or GOG tab?

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

I don't even have an Amazon Tab

what does the Manage accounts say

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

That it's not logged in. I can click on "Amazon Login", but when i Do, it's stuck on "Preparing Login"

makes sense because it says you are logged in already

after i changed the contents to []

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

and it appended the percentage sign after I restarted the app

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

but it's not really a percentage sign, some kind of invisible character because it's not appearing in text editors

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

did you use nile previously? I guess you can workaround it by running

XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/home/tomek/.config/heroic/nile_config /opt/Heroic/resources/app.asar.unpacked/build/bin/linux/nile auth --logout

and logging in Heroic again

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

I didn't but I used amazon on lutris

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

lutris doesn't use nile directly so this shouldn't be an issue

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

Managed to log out, logged back in, but same problem

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

send the log of that last login

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

But it might contain sensitive information? Cookies or something, looks like it.

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

cut out that parts then the long url and hashes although it shouldn't allow anyone to use them since you are logged in already

I'll reboot my PC, i forgot I updated the kernel and didn't reboot.

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

(12:32:15) INFO: [Nile]: Game list updated, got 90 games

hmm, seems it can read that part

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

rebooted, reinstalled heroic re-logged in, but still same issue

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

try appimage from this build https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/HeroicGamesLauncher/pull/2897

also check user.json file in ~/.config/heroic/nile_config/nile/ see if it has given_name field

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

it's empty the given_name field

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

and name isn't?

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

also empty

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

hmm

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

everything else has a value "home_region": "NA" I'm from EU, but I don't think it matters. Tested the appimage, also doesn't work

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

That's the installed.json it created.

installed.json

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

There's this percentage sign at the end when I use cat to view it. That's why it throws "Error: Error invoking remote method 'checkGameUpdates': SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input", I guess.

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

it's unrelated, because nile prints message like [ERROR]: No games installed so it's not valid JSON

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

I mean whatever is creating the installed.json file is adding the unexpected chracter to the end and Heroic can't read the file I deleted the installed.json file and created a new one with [] inside and now it's working with the AppImage version

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

can you see your games?

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

It didn't work If i just edited the installed.json that was created. Yes

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

what is your username in Account manager

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

"B" because i edited the user.json, I forgot

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

remove that B it will not know you are logged in

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

I logged out, logged back in, and it's not working again, even if I create the installed.json file myself...

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

exactly working on a fix right now thanks for the report

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

Sure thing, let me know when you want me to test it.

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

try latest AppImage @Shake

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

It works! Didn't even need to re-login Installing a game right now.

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

try to break it and report back 🙂 appreciate the help

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

I'm not logged in in the browser on Stores page, but I think it's expected.

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

yes, session is separate

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

I installed the games, but can't run them 0024:err:esync:esync_init Server is running with WINEESYNC but this process is not, please enable WINEESYNC or restart wineserver. Is the error I tried with ESYNC enabled and disabled in the settings with wine-ge-latest

afraid-scarlet•2y ago

kill all wine processes

flat-fuchsiaOP•2y ago

I reinstalled wine, it's working now.
