Uncompressing installer fails

**thomasdegraaff** · 09-12-2010, 04:19 PM

The installer fails:

$ ./amnesia_tdd_1.0.sh 

Verifying archive integrity... All good.

Uncompressing Installer for Amnesia - The Dark Descent..........................Extraction failed.

Signal caught, cleaning up

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 64 bits.

Already tried downloading it again, same problem.

Did you make it executable? chmod +x?

**thomasdegraaff** · 09-12-2010, 07:05 PM

Yeah.. otherwise it wouldn't have given feedback, now would it?

Do you have enough free disk space in /tmp? And is /tmp NOT mounted with noexec?

You will need around 1-1.5GB free in /tmp or specify --target when running the installer to specify an alternate location.

Thx! This did the trick. Smile

Code: (Select All)

./amnesia_tdd_1.0.sh --target /mnt/Documenten/Games/Amnesia/tmp/
