Chivalry 2 Not Launching

🐧linux

Hi there,

I've download the appimage version of the Heroic Launcher and I'm trying to launch Chivalry 2 for the first time. It fails to launch with what seems to be a python exception due to not being able to rename a file, and then a later python exception. I've attached the Chivalry 2 related logs in "chivalry2 logs".

For now I'm assuming the second exception is a side-effect of the first exception. The first exception might be related to the fact that the code is trying to call the renameat2 system call, and my home directory is mounted on a separate partition than the rest of the filesystem. According to the man page the renameat2 call can fail if the old and new names of the file are on different mount points:

       EXDEV  oldpath and newpath are not  on  the  same  mounted  filesystem.
              (Linux  permits  a  filesystem to be mounted at multiple points,
              but rename() does not work across different mount  points,  even
              if the same filesystem is mounted on both.)

       EXDEV  oldpath and newpath are not  on  the  same  mounted  filesystem.
              (Linux  permits  a  filesystem to be mounted at multiple points,
              but rename() does not work across different mount  points,  even
              if the same filesystem is mounted on both.)

I see in the code for

_install_umu

_install_umu

that it tries to log extra information about the rename at the DEBUG log level:

   with TemporaryDirectory(dir=local.parent, prefix=".") as tempdir:
        log.debug("Created: %s", tempdir)
        log.debug("Moving: %s -> %s", parts, tempdir)
        move(parts, tempdir)

        extract_tarfile(Path(tempdir, archive), Path(tempdir))

        steamrt, *_ = archive.split(".tar.xz")
        log.debug("Exchanging: %s <-> %s", Path(tempdir, steamrt), local)
        exchange(Path(tempdir, steamrt), local)

   with TemporaryDirectory(dir=local.parent, prefix=".") as tempdir:
        log.debug("Created: %s", tempdir)
        log.debug("Moving: %s -> %s", parts, tempdir)
        move(parts, tempdir)

        extract_tarfile(Path(tempdir, archive), Path(tempdir))

        steamrt, *_ = archive.split(".tar.xz")
        log.debug("Exchanging: %s <-> %s", Path(tempdir, steamrt), local)
        exchange(Path(tempdir, steamrt), local)

Is there a way to enable that debug logging in umu from the Heroic launcher? It could help pinpoint if the issue is because of different mountpoints.
