Savestate creation attempt fails #581

Closed Widge-5 closed 1 year ago

Widge-5 commented 1 year ago

I am using a Raspberry Pi4 with RetropIe, using Retroarch 1.10.0. I installed lr-puae from source today and it appears to be v 4.9.1 (b2c4acb)

Creating a savestate appears to be broken, but I don't know if it's just me.

Whenever I try to create a savestate the creation fails, the toast notifcation in the lower left corner comes up a message to say "Saving state 0%" but then never changes. it remains on screen for the remainder of the session never moving off 0%. When I then attempt to exit the core with hotkey+start to return to EmulationStation, the whole thing freezes up and the only way I can get out is to pkill the core from an SSH command line. Exiting the core is usually fine, except for after I attempt to create a savestate.

I can't reproduce. Post logs. How about other cores?

Thanks, looking at the logs was great advice. It made me realise that the rom location where the savestate was to be saved was owned by root instead of pi, so there were insufficient privileges for the save. Changed ownership of the folder and the problem is solved!! Case closed.
