Unable to run Ice #271

Closed puchimatto closed 9 years ago

puchimatto commented 9 years ago

I have downloaded Ice and tried to run it but it gives me this error:

=========================Starting Ice

An Error has occurred: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'anonymous'

Close the window, or hit enter to exit...

Ive looked for some solution but hasn´t been able to figure it out, I have already tried on two different computers with windows 7 and 8.1, and they both gave me the same error Am I doing something wrong here? Do I need to install something else before?

Thanks

I'm having the exact same issue.

Here's the log info:

This is due to an anonymous folder being left where Steam normally leaves folders named after user ids. The easiest fix for this is to go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata and delete the anonymous folder. I believe it just contains the settings for the guest account.

This has actually already been fixed in the current source of Ice (which means if you dont want to delete the anonymous folder you can always just run that), but the .exe file was built before the fix went in so it still has this bug. Since the source already has the fix there is nothing actionable for me to do here code-wise so I am going to close the task.
