Errerno 13, cannot use 'Take Off' button, Kneeboard related? #866

Closed chanosiaan closed 3 years ago

chanosiaan commented 3 years ago

Hi there, I've had a quick look to see if this has already been solved but cannot see a solution. Apologies if it has been already.

After creating a mission for SP use and hitting 'Take Off', nothing happens and I get the error below.

My saved game directory is: C:/Users/Chano/Saved Games/DCS My installation directory is: K:/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/DCSWorld

In the saved games directory I have a subfolder named 'Missions' as directed by another thread. Didn't seem to change anything.

Might be related to kneeboard generation? I have no idea, I'm a total noob at this.

I've tried it on different maps, with different aircraft/factions/missions to no avail...

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create mission with 1 client slot.
  2. Click Take Off
  3. Nothing happens...
  4. Gets error:
  5. Traceback (most recent call last): File "qt_ui\widgets\QTopPanel.py", line 243, in launch_mission File "game\game.py", line 213, in initiate_event File "game\event\event.py", line 58, in generate File "game\operation\operation.py", line 346, in generate File "game\operation\operation.py", line 191, in notify_info_generators File "gen\kneeboard.py", line 356, in generate File "gen\kneeboard.py", line 292, in write File "gen\kneeboard.py", line 95, in write File "lib\site-packages\PIL\Image.py", line 2155, in save PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'kneeboards\Su-27\page00.png'

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Either Liberation doesn't have permission to write to the directory you've installed it to, or some other program is preventing it from writing that file.

You were totally right, it was an anti-virus software that was blocking it. I've made an exception for it and now it runs fine.

Thanks very much!

Oh shit. Thanks so much. I had the same thing with AVG but it was set to silent so I didn't get the notification. Spent a day changing permissions before I found this. Thanks again.
