[SOLVED]Problem in executing .run file (updating PB)
Hello
I have installed enemy territory (2.6), updated to the 2.60b patch and now i get the 20004# integrity kick because i need to update my punkbuster... i tried pbweb but it didn't work, i have to update from pbsetup.run (http://websec.evenbalance.com/downlo...ux/pbsetup.run). i downloaded the file, moved it to my PB folder and tried to run it, but i got an error saying Quote:
i edited the permission to +x with chmod and now i could run it with the terminal, but still, running it does nothing. (the process runs but quits after a few seconds, i checked from the system monitor) Quote:
can anyone help me? I'm desperate. thanks Moderators, ive posted this twice (in games forum and software forum) so mo people will see it (not everyone goes to games forum i gess), if its wrong you can delete my post and im sorry. |
Try 'sh pbsetup.run'
That sometimes works when other ways fail. If not then I don't know really since you chmod'ed it. |

Well I just tried it too and it always says 'cannot execute binary file'. I think it's a problem with the file. I would get in touch with pb and let them know that their linux downloads aren't working.

well, thanks for the help, i tried to sh it but it said cannot execute binary file....
i have already contacted PB about this, will see what they say, when i solve the problem ill post the answer here. |
Trying running the pbsetup.run under sudo. Even though you installed without errors, you are still running into permission issues. Installing things using an admin account often fixes these permission issues.

i tried to sudo but it didnt help =\
im waiting PB to reply on my ticket edit: problem solved i found the solution on the net, to uncompress the pbsetup rife i had to "upx -d pbsetup.run" and then everything ran smooth. if it doesnt work for someone just install the package from your distro CD, it should be there. |
