Same, it works ONCE. Then after that, you get that error -7 message. Even after clearing cache etc
Also:
Ok, it's still possible to launch the client directly (located in Program Files/CCP/EVE/bin/ExeFile.exe) and bypass the launcher. Obviously not for long, since somebody has to justify his existence at CCP by forcing down his launcher on everybody. |

If the launcher is not working try running ExeFile.exe in {your eve dir}/bin.
If the above doesn't work try the repair tool.
PS- Also note that the launcher appears to be borked for Windows too. http://evenews24.com/2013/05/21/eve-launcher-support-thread/ Former forum cheerleader CCP, now just a hopeful small portion of the community. |

If we can get that Error -7 issue fixed, we would be back in business what puzzles me is why it works perfectly the 1st time and never again after that. |

It does seem to work one out of ten times after the first launch. But I am with the Devs here, it's most likely a wine problem. Since the thing is live now, maybe someone should go and issue a bug report? I would do it myself but that would take effort.
I might still do it at some point if none of you is less lazy than I am. |

going to bed now, our fate is in your hands :we're######: took me 8 tries to get it to work (i.e. not show the error 7), so it CAN work, it's just temperamental |

Seems like there are problems all over with the new launcher. I was stuck with the "Error -7" as well , until running the client directly:
wine "C:\Program Files (x86)\CCP\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe"
Running fine with Ubuntu 12.10, wine 1.5.29.
Let's hope they get this fixed before anyone gets bright ideas about removing login from main executable.

Okay, seems like the dreaded Error -7 is, indeed, random and not connected with clearing the launcher cache. Which is kinda good because I don't need to clear the cache, but kinda bad, because I don't have control over it.
There is another problem, though.
The new launcher breaks the logic behind virtual desktops. That is, I can't spawn multiple instances of eve online in different virtual desktops from one launcher.
Therefore, when using launcher, to get different virtual desktops it's required to start multiple instances of launcher (with "close after game launch" option). Naturally, only one instance of launcher can be run at a time. Naturally, it can't close properly, because the threads are left in gridlock for a minute after closing the launcher. Which leads to the fact that you can only start the client once a minute. Those that hate multiboxers should probably rejoice at this point.
Why do we even need a multithreaded launcher? Does it participate in Folding @Home or something? |

Same issue here. The launcher validates everything ok, but the username/pswd and "login" button don't show up. Something is scrcewed up with the way it displays them.

It's the Error -7. It's just written in invisible letters. You can see it by selecting the text. |

I was getting similar issues with the launcher only working once and never again.
It would continually spawn these processes:
C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE\launcher\appdata\EVE_Online_Launcher-2.1.539169.win32\launcher.exe --esky-slave-proc C:\users\*your user*\Temp\esky-slave-procs\slave-37.0.txt
Each one took 2.4Gb of resident RAM, and maxed out a 2.8GHz core.
After the first launch the 'Server: Tranquility...Login' part of the page would fail to load anymore. This is on top of the buddy offer image that fails to half the time anyway on SISI and TQ. (Due to a 404 on CCP's CDN network it seems.)
I do have a rather interesting workaround based on the console output from wine. There are a lot of race condition-type warnings on files, file lock failures, threads blocked and even some embarrassing stack overflows inside the launcher's code. So these dueling launcher.exe instances seem to leave behind garbage.
The settings are in the little gear icon on the top left of the window under the close button.
- Remove everything in C:\users\*your user here*\Temp
- Start a launcher.
- Set the launcher to close after launching eve in the Startup Tab of the pop-up settings window.
- Login and run Eve
- Once Eve is up, remove everything in C:\users\*your user here*\Temp
This lets me run one working launcher, so far, on desktop :0.1 (the 2nd monitor) more than 90% of the time.
I'm not sure why since the directories made are empty except for that also empty slave-37.0.txt file.
I have to run ExeFile.exe for any new instances of eve since the first seems to acquire and hold a lock on C:\Program Files\CCP\Eve\bin, probably for updating. It might also be that launcher.exe takes longer than 10 minutes to quit and won't run multiple instances like the older lancher.
Important things to Note:
I don't run Ubuntu Linux. Since I was running 'strace -eopen on the wine session in a terminal' alongside my htop and iotop windows, I needed to install the dmz-icon-theme-cursors as wine wants to open those files for Eve for some reason. I have no themes installed in wine, so these may be fall-backs for Ubuntu's particular GNOME packages. Not everyone run's Ubuntu!
The output in ~/.xsession-errors is also unpleasant due to the lock problems. (Doing tail -f ~/.xsession-errors should yield mostly the same thing as running eve in wine by hand in a terminal.)
The CCP logfile for the launcher in ${WINEPREFIX}/drive_c/Program Files/CCP/EVE/launcher/cache/launcher.${DATE}.log doesn't seem to be very useful unless you are trying to mess with the CDN resources specified in the yaml and .txt files.
(Off Topic: I do have a little trouble believing CCP has difficulty running Eve under wine. Maybe that's because I use nVidia which is this season's working-binary-driver-for-Linux graphics card and I am very picky about which Linux distros I use.) |

That's no moon. Errrr... That's no 3 processes. That's you using htop. If you'd sort the process tree by comand line, you'd find like 10 instances of the launcher there. Because by default htop shows userland threads. Hide them in options, and you'd get one process. |

In the background firefox tries to reach a website which it cannot open.
No matter how long, the launcher stays a white box.
Do i have to change my dll overrides or install anything else?
I have no DLL overrides anymore. But I do have quite a few packages installed because World of Planes and World of Tanks needed them. I have IE 7 installed, for example.
Moving .wine for me and using blank wine failed to start launcher for me at all. So yes, it seems it relies on something like IE to get going I'd have to investigate further what it actually needs.

Everything updated smoothly, no hiccups, but the launcher login screen doesnt show. (got the -7 error too) Only bypassing the launcher works.
Both links working fine which was provided at the beginning of this thread by CCP

I get the error -7 when running the launcher.
Not a big deal for now, as patching works and I run ExeFile.exe directly to play anyway.
NB: if the launcher spits you an exception, try unsetting your proxy variables before running the launcher:
unset http_proxy unset https_proxy wine launcher/launcher.exe

Bravo guy's, bravo. How about warning people a couple of day's in advance that you're going to "upgrade" to a broken piece of software.
Anyway the launcher updated without an issue, it was able to update my client, but it still consumes 100% of both my cores and it doesn't provide me with a login so I'm just bypassing the launcher. |

new updated launcher does not let to log (no SSO web-page) or start client in wine/Linux, the workaround is to start not Eve.exe as usual, but ../bin/ExeFile.exe |

Can someone from CCP tell us whats your schedule for removing the ingame sign on, please? Because if this is removed we will be unable to sign on. And I doubt that there will be much change in regards to the launcher until then.
Will we be able to play after Odyssey or should I cancel my account right away. Hope not, just returned to EVE after half a year. |

I'd first like to say that I started playing EVE about 5 month's ago now, and this is the first time I've had an issue and had to turn to the forums. I am absolutely impressed with the DEV input on this forum. Most games that aren't for Linux get zero response in a Linux issues thread, and here they actively reach out to help. Thumbs up CCP.
I'm sharing the issues that everyone has mentioned. If I can the repairer or just clear all the launcher settings so that it requires me to login again, it works each time. The launcher does not close cleanly now and must be killed manually. I'll look into this in more detail when I get home from work. |

How do you clean it out so that it works?

To get the launcher to even PATCH me, I had to do:
Quote: # repair: (to confirm patches are applied) /usr/bin/env WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine" DISPLAY=":0.0" /usr/bin/aoss wine explorer /desktop=eve1,1024x768 "C:\Games\CCP\EVE\repair.exe" # launcher: (reconfirm patches) /usr/bin/env WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine" DISPLAY=":0.0" /usr/bin/aoss wine explorer /desktop=eve1,1024x768 "C:\Games\CCP\EVE\eve.exe"
# tl;dr: Finally, new batch files to launch the exefile directly: /usr/bin/env WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine" DISPLAY=":0.0" /usr/bin/aoss wine explorer /desktop=eve1,1024x768 "C:\Games\CCP\EVE\bin\exefile.exe" #And to do a second instance: /usr/bin/env WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine" DISPLAY=":0.0" /usr/bin/aoss wine explorer /desktop=eve1,1024x768 "C:\Games\CCP\EVE\bin\exefile.exe"
How the launcher is failing depends on the client.eveonline.com. If it completely fails, you get a big black screen, nothing after that. Sometimes it partially succeeds and you get 'client updated!' but no actual loginbox. Sometimes it succeeds, but it seems more and more rare. CCP really should have put their client.eveonline.com on their CDN network of cdn1.eveonline.com if they wanted this to be more stable. |

I'm getting the same error here. It should not be caused by the character quiz. EVE Gate Login was only minutes before I ran the launcher. |
