Installation Error?

Submitted by chase94 on

I'v been having some trouble with the 0.6 installation. At least I think i have. Every time I try to use the installer i get a text log saying this

 

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "Skywind.py", line 42, in <module>
  File "shutil.pyo", line 117, in copy
  File "shutil.pyo", line 83, in copyfile

IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:\\Windows\\unrar.exe'

 

Nothing in my PC changes except for getting this text file in my Skywind installer v0.6.1 rar. Am I supposed to get that?

I wasn't sure about this so i tried to put all the files of the "Data files" folder in the "Skywind installer v0.6.1 rar" into my data folder in my Skyrim directory. I checked all the Skywind plugins and then as soon as the main menu comes up, I get a CTD. Please help, am I doing something wrong?

If this is the previous installer, move unrar.exe to C:\Windows. That will let you run it. (I moved unrar.exe back when I was done, to prevent clutter.)

I don't know if that's still necessary with the most recent installer.

This helped me open the installer correctly, but when it finishes I get these errors.

 

Started...

Decrypt: Skywind.cmf

[Errno 13] Permission denied: u'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim\\Data/Skywind.esm'

Copy: Skywind.bsa

Finished

 

There is nothing related to skywind in my data files, and the installer still says "No Skywind.esm found".

I tried to install them manually, and when I did they showed up in the data files of the skyrim launcher but it just crashes to the desktop when I have them check marked. Also after manually installing them the installer still says "No Skywind.esm found".

Seems like Skywind.esm file locked by other process. Try to edit currentVersion.yml change destination of Skywind.cmf from Skywind.esm to Skywind_decrypted.esm. 

I will try to fix these errors in next release
