Importing *.rap Files Fails Successfully #52

Closed ZXRoxas closed 3 years ago

ZXRoxas commented 3 years ago

To Whom This May Concern,

I am attempting to import *.rap files from USB 0, but every time I try I get this message: "Files successfully copied to: /dev_hdd0/home/00000001/exdata/, but when I confirm the import, the files aren't there and there is no exdata directory. I've tried creating a new exdata directory and applying permissions in the mmCM File Manager, but nothing seems to be working.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

I am using a CECHA01 PlayStation 3 with REBUG 4.84.2 DEX Custom Firmware installed and I have confirmed that the files have .rap extensions, NOT .RAP extensions.

Thanks for your help! ZXRyuu

.rap activation only works if the user account has been activated. (log in with an account, then activate the console for games)

if you don't have a folder /dev_hdd0/home/00000001/exdata/, then it means the user has not activated the console. Apollo can't activate consoles, so the license activation will fail. If the account is activated, you should see a file /dev_hdd0/home/00000001/exdata/act.dat

I guess I need to add a verification for act.dat and change the notification message.

Okay, thanks for the response! I will go down the route of activating my console and try this again.
