got same problem

any ideas?

Ubuntu Linux user here, Wine 1.4:

Launcher worked and installed the patch. when I click play I get a Runtime error in ExeFile.exe "abnormal program termination".

And before "linux unsupported" yada yada.... it was working fine last night... and for the last 4 years with this setup.

On win7, could access Launcher 1.05 settings the first time it came up. Cannot access settings anymore even after multiple re-starts of launcher. Mouse over settings button will light-up the button but does not open the settings window.

There might be something wrong with the launcher's self-update procedure. My launcher version was stuck at 1.04. Repair.exe didn't redownload anything (as did the launcher itself)

I deleted the launcher sub folder, ran repair.exe again, and now the launcher updated itself to 1.05. This is very strange!

Edit: This still didn't fix the clickable links. They open for me in a blank IE window with no page content, empty address bar and no visible loading progress or anything (the window is just stuck but I'm able to close it).

I have one regular installation of EVE and another simple copy (copy and paste) of EVE with a configuration to the second screen on my computer (I use two monitors).
Patching works fine for both clients; but it is not possible to configure the launcher on my second (just copy and paste) EVE.
I want, that the launcher closes itself after starting EVE. With the regular installation it works fine but when I click at the "Setup" button of the launcher, nothing happens. Strange.

- Browsing my saved personal fittings is only possible if I click twice the button. But all fittings are gone / deleted.
- Why the hell did you rename my shield hardeners? Who is that id!ot who wants to rename all my stuff?

How can we download the newest version of the launcher? Launching the game, the existing launcher, or the repair file is broken for me right now.

Launcher stops downloading patch at 40% each time. Just been out for over 3 hours, came back and still at 40%. Restarted launcher and it got back to 40% downloaded (from 0% as it didn't resume at 40%) in a few mins. Then just stops again.

Done this 5 times now.

Where can I manually download the .patch file from and import it? Would be the easiest option but on the website there is no longer a download option for patches page, says I HAVE TO use the launcher.

Please just give us some information so we are not left in the dark.
I notice a lot of the Win7 user's posts are left unanswered.

Don't get me wrong I know you just don't come up with a solution like poof right away.
But atleast let us know what's going on and if you are going to let us patch manually or we have to wait it out.

Morning all,

K, patch update started several versions of startup for EVE.

When i did close all the other one's, restarted the client, says node not available, no links work from the client, one time it says it's online, then doesn't connect me, freezes etc etc.

Enough of this, what the **** is going on, spent 1.5 hours trying this.


Is the server up or not, are we having major problems or not......

Some information would be appreciated.......


Thanks

repair tool & evepremiumpatch349998.exe stoping with error "TypeError: Incorrect stream properties FileSyncError: Too many retries" on 4\7(or 6\7) then they trying to download data

This patch says it wants to install to the Sisi folder.. Are you telling us to install this to the Eve folder instead?

Dear Dev

Just followed your suggestion and both the shortcut and the repair.exe still didn't work and popped the same message, apparently these files (launcher.exe and repair.exe) wont be able to patch other files in the same directory while their processes are active.

VPCF12Z1E/BI - i7 Q740 1.73 GHz - 8GB DDR3 1333 MHz - NVIDIA GEFORCE 330GT 1GB - Win7 x64

Patch keeps failing

how do we get the launcher v1.05?

The launcher installed fine on my 2 PC's (Windows 7 & XP), but there was an issue installing it on my laptop (Vista).

Towards the end of the initial download process, it threw up the message "error creating shortcut". The installation continued and completed. The game does load through the launcher, but I cannot get into the settings menu to close the launcher down etc.


Any ideas ?

Is there a location where i can download the file : evepremiumpatch349998.exe
Download using eve client will not work.

Dito here. i'm downloading right now and it is taking ages. Or is the patch huge? I can't tell because it is not showing how much Mb's it is downloading on the launcher.

No error messages yet though, at least thats something :>

IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\CCP\\EVE\\bin\\Awesomium.dll'
Total Runtime: 0h05m55s

I have now tried restarting my computer, running both the launcher and repair clients as administrator, running the repair tool through the new launcher, as well as from the program directory. only to get the same error as posted above. Any help would be appreciated, as I am really starting to tire of having to spend 3 hours fixing the eve client almost every patch day.

First off... this launcher is crap.

you have successfully created patchception. I had to DL a patch to make the launcher work, ok fine, that was expected, then the launcher DL another larger patch. yet again OK must be that other 3.5 MB patch was just the launcher.so after 150MB patch DL and the thing saying i could then launch the game i click launch.. loe and behold another small patch that required the game to restart. So yea thanks for fixing that what is not broken -.-

And this was only on my laptop.........

I come home to do the same lame lolupdate thinking well its not the worst that could happen just another thing in life that was good and now made bad but still tolerable. But alas i found that my desktop would not be so lucky...

Downloaded launcher patch, worked fine.. launcher launched and started DL its big patch. then i got the exception error same as the others and no more install for me.. decided to uninstall and start fresh, DL the installer and NOPE corrupt installer.... Clicked the download manually link.. WTF is this have to DL 3 separate files and run from there? still working on this....

I work with software development and testing and just have to wonder if you even tested this on any kind of various platforms or just on whoever happened to have a computer there that day. so yea.. hate the launcher, was not needed at all, other system was working fine and i didnt need all this buddy program promotes and BUY PLEX NOW stuff. i know its there i knew its there and its not like its something you need reminded of -.-

Also why the new names for things? what was it doing before that caused a undesirable effect?

Why is my overview no longer working properly and sticking?

Why when i alt tab from one client to the next the next things i click on are looked at until i press tab again?

NOW FOR THE THINGS THAT WENT OK

the launcher can be avoided if there are no patches (once i can get it to run.)
Noob ships look cool (why wasent this time spent on my overview?)


Overall conclusions? I Am Dissapoint ;(

if the one pc that is patching the game works properly can i simply copy the folder on to the other 4 pcs i have?

I am also Win7 x64 user and also still waiting on a working patch (after failed attempts to patch manually or through the launcher, with Run as Administrator option off and on) . The link you provided for the fixed 1.06 launcher ( http://cdn1.eveonline.com/349998/evepremiumpatch349998.exe) does not seem to be working either, or is currently overflowed.
I understand it takes some time for you guys to fix the issues for the win7 x64 users, but i also hope you can make it up to us for our lost game time.

Please say if Launcher 1.06 is somewhat retired by now. My 1.05 version does not upgrade to 1.05, being that SiSi or Tranquility

Is 1.06 existing version currently?

AND AGAIN NOTHING ABOUT THE ISSUE WITH EVEMAIL

OK my 2 cent's for what it's worth anyway. CCP you fail HARD and I mean HARD... FFS if your going to release something make sure it works before you do!

Running Windows 7 X64 Ultimate: This application is not 64 bit compatible... Really?!? In this day and age of computing surely a company like yours has the brain cells to make a 64-bit & 32-bit version of the same app?

I used the work around that was issued yesterday (13/03/12) which no longer works due to today's (yet again FAIL) patch of yesterday's disastrous patching process... Now being an EVE player since 2004 I am used to ERRORS like this coming from you (boot.ini being the main one in living memory)

BUT SURELY YOU MUST LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES AND NOT KEEP MAKING THEM!!!

I no longer have a working EVE client as do many of your subscribers... If I were in your management I would have head's on spit's and use them for target practise!!! I say you give everyone a "We are sorry" present for you incompetence and lack of management.

/rant

so to most of you, a small solution for today, reinstall the whole game manually and you can start it again out of the bin-file as it works yesterday, launcher still does not work, this will last until the next update,either the launcher is fixed then or you have to reinstall.

not perfect but it works for today
fly safe

i stuck in the update in (1/3) creating eve online 349998-350962 patch

it go to 25% all good and then it restart it self back to 0% all the time i try to reboot few times even tshut off my anti virus even to use error nuker and the eve repair tool nothing work anything else i can try to do ??

Heh, what is going on!!!

After many attempts, still cannot install and play it!

All recommendations from EVE doesn't WORK!!!

Due to this mess, does EVE give any refund or discount?

the update got stuck by the install of the launcher, got the same messages as a lot of the people already have postet in the forum. the repair got stuck with an error message
system is windows 64
the launcher does not get installed

Golem can give me explain how to do it and it on it way to you

So why do I suddenly have to launch a launcher that adds zero features or functionality to my previous Eve experience, but goes a step further from being absolutely useless and actually becomes an annoyance because now I have to click extra buttons arbitrarily and the launcher doesn't close itself when I click Play, so yet another arbitrary click has to be made.

What was the point of this launcher?

So I just have to sit here and play other games while you sort out your error... Wait a minute... I paid for this game... I want compensation.... After all your server logs show an error on your side not mine... Waiting to be compensated now

I also got this error. A link to the manual download page is provided by the installer when it fails.

You have to download the Executable, Payload 1, and Payload 2 and put them all in the same folder, then run the executable. The folder you put these 3 things in does not have to be the folder you intend to install EVE to (and probably, CANNOT be the same folder).

Well, I couldnt locate the win_launcherinfoTQ_inc.txt file, but I did import the 350962 to 351477 patch file again, which forced the Launcher to reverse the reversion (lol) back to 351477. But then it also updated itself to v1.11. The client launched successfully after both actions, so not sure which was the one that solved it.

In any case, thanks for the tip. Just keeping my fingers crossed that there's no Day 5 of my problems
