[Bug]: Service fails to run #22

Closed leamare closed 1 year ago

leamare commented 1 year ago

Are you on the latest version?

Is there a fix in progress related to your proposal?

Describe the bug

D2RPC Client service either

Expected Behavior

Service installs and runs.

Dota 2 Patch

No response

Steps To Reproduce

Try to run the install and run the service

Anything else?

This only happened with 1.0.4 version. 1.0.3 doesn't have this issue.

Hi @leamare , thanks for continuing the tests.

Can u make some prints?

Uninstalls both services for me on both computers.

Can you try to install using commands instead of using the script install.windows.bat?

dota2-rpc-client -i

If you can send a print of the output of each computer so we can try to find the error during the installation.

leamare commented 1 year ago

It produces either no output or it's no different from the regular install. The only difference is that it hangs up after service install on the latest version.

andsfonseca commented 1 year ago

The installation process and service start process are now separate.

If there was no ouput, then it seems that everything went well. But to be sure, check if the "gamestate_integration_rpc" file was created in the "{SteamLibrary}\dota 2 beta\game\dota\cfg\gamestate_integration" folder.

If everything is ok, let's continue. Open task manager and stop the dota2rpc service (if it is not already stopped).

Run in the terminal by the command below

dota2-rpc-client -f

Open the dota, test a hero and check for me if there was any output different from the usual.

In case of the old machine (upgrading from an older version), the gamestate_integration_rpc file was already there, and the service was reinstalled, but was just crashing after a while (launching the client with -f parameter worked fine). No errors shown or anything. It only started working properly (service started working again) after switching to a previous version.

On the new machine it didn't create config file and service (still showing completely normal output), though it seems to be a separate issue.

@leamare, i found a bug in 1.0.4 realease.

I'm going to recreate the 1.0.4 version.

I believe I must have added testing code in the current version.

If possible you can create an issue about the installation process, as they are separate they end up becoming different problems

andsfonseca commented 1 year ago

Try with this version: https://github.com/andsfonseca/dota2-rpc-client/releases/tag/v1.0.4

leamare commented 1 year ago

This seems to fix the issue with running the service on 1.0.4. The installation seems to be indeed a different issue.
