Topic: Game craches without recognizable indication

which should return only executables (=files) in the path:

$ which widelands
 /usr/bin/widelands
$ ls -al /usr/bin/widelands
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7411576 nov 27 08:21 /usr/bin/widelands
$ file /usr/bin/widelands
/usr/bin/widelands: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=59ecc044ebbfaa3f346b3cc01a7d8340d5b257b3, stripped

Of course, it is still possible that your installation of widelands (executable itself) is not in path, in that case which would not report it

I don't understand your first tip: What should I zooming or scrolling?

When you start a new game you could zoom in and out with your mouse wheel

Edit: If you have a newer version than build19

@Tibor

on my last post I was a little bit wrong: the command

'which widelands'

shows the path to that widelands-file, which is in my case in the directory

'/usr/games/' (not '/usr/share/games/widelands', where are those directories named data and the others)

That file 'widelands' there is from 04.12.2016 21:42

The command:

'ls -al /usr/games/widelands'

prints out:

'-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7747664 Dez 4 21:42 /usr/games/widelands'

The command:

'file /usr/games/widelands'

prints out:

'/usr/games/widelands: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=cca03c17118c528660ef7f2d312dfe8306c1db8e, stripped'

@kaputtnick

Ahh ok... No, the zooming with mouse-wheel doesn't works

It means, that it's not the daily-version, which is running on my computer...

@GunChleok

the command:

'grep ^ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | grep widelands'

print out:

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/widelands-daily-update.list:## Widelands Daily Build

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/widelands-daily-update.list:deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/widelands-dev/widelands-daily/ubuntu yakkety main

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/widelands-daily-update.list:deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/widelands-dev/widelands-daily/ubuntu yakkety main

(...the list-name 'widelands-daily-update.list' is my individual creation)

(in between: thanks for your efforts)

Hello kaputtnik,

no, an update 'never' isn't silly...

In my case I could have sworn, that I've done it many times, but:

'sudo apt-get update'

was only a small update, but then I've done a completly update via using the APTus-tool. And I've seen by the terminal-lines, that something is going on with the daily-widelands-version. It was a download about 169MB...!

But if I started widelands after, the game crashes...!

I will send you the printed output from the terminal:

(Unfortunately I don't know, how I can get that nice text-block, which you are using...)

Unexpected error during the game [/build/widelands-19+repack/src/graphic/image_io.h:35] Image not found: images/ui_fsmenu/mainmenu.jpg

Please report this problem to help us improve Widelands. You will find related messages in the standard output (stdout.txt on Windows). You are using build build-19 (Release). Please add this information to your report.

Widelands attempts to create a savegame when errors occur during the game. It is often – though not always – possible to load it and continue playing.

Caught exception (of type '13ImageNotFound') in outermost handler! The exception said: [/build/widelands-19+repack/src/graphic/image_io.h:35] Image not found: images/ui_basic/scrollbar_background.png

This should not happen. Please file a bug report on version build-19(Release). and remember to specify your operating system.

Yes, the directory

already exists
