Can't get passed setup

Open pul53gh opened this issue 3 years ago • 9 comments

Hello! I have had some issues with the mod when trying to go through setup. Despite having fresh installs, running default directories, checking files, and even following a tutorial, I still get the same error:

Here is the log (At least that's what I think it is)

latest.log

I took a look inside the log and I think I know the issue. I have 2 drives, an SSD and a Hard Drive. my SSD is very small and most of the time it's almost full, so I use my 1TB Hard Drive to install apps and program files. That's what I did when I installed Virtual Box too.

When windows was set up, it set my SSD as the default C: OS Drive, which most all apps use for default installation, so I have to change the install directory to the D: (The Hard Drive)

So when I went through the setup process, I changed the file directory to go to my Hard Drive rather than the default SSD.

However, I think that MCVm doesn't give a fuck, and just decides to run through to the C: Directory, eventually finding nothing.

Log String:

[13:27:05] [main/INFO]: [STDERR]: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\vboxmanage.exe": CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

That should be going to my D: drive, but as you can see it's not.

Please let me know how to fix this as I would really like to experience this mod.

EDIT: Alright, I went on an older version of the mod and it worked, so I think it's a bug with the newer version.

A symlink might do.

Just tried a symlink - works fine. Here's a quick guide: Launch CMD with admin rights - those needed to make a folder in Program files

mkdir "C:\Program Files\Oracle"
cd "C:\Program Files\Oracle"
mklink /J Virtualbox "path to the virtualbox installation folder"

cd "C:\Program Files\Oracle"
mklink /J Virtualbox "path to the virtualbox installation folder"

it just says to me "cannot create a file that already exists"

On what step?

the mklink one, this is the command i used that doesn't work: mklink /J Virtualbox "D:\Programs\Virtualbox"

my bad. Do rmdir "C:\Program Files\Oracle\Virtualbox" and then mklink. Edited my earlier post so other users don't get confused
