Tylrr Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Bug Submission: Category: Client Crash Issue Title: [MAC & LINUX] cannot connect through LAN or Server Issue Description: I bought the Don't Starve Together 2-pack gift on Steam, and gave the other copy of DST to my roommate. I am on a Mac and he is running Ubuntu Linux, and whenever we try to connect to each other we get the error messages shown in the screenshots. We have tried with me hosting a server, him hosting a server, me hosting LAN, him hosting LAN, turned both of our firewalls off, etc., but it will not work. I've read somewhere on here that it has to do with not getting a save file from Documents/Klei/Savedata (or some such file structure), I have that in my Documents, but he does not. I can, after the last update from 2/26/2015 connect to any server listed, but he cannot, either. What could we do to alleviate this? Steps to Reproduce: For his computer, try to connect to any server. From my computer, try to connect between us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rezecib Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 @Tylrr, On Linux the configuration directory (save folder) is located here:~/.klei/DoNotStarveTogetherDoes he have nothing in the "save" folder inside of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylrr Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 @rezecib... No, in .klei there is only Eets, there is no DoNotStarveTogether folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer bizziboi Posted February 28, 2015 Developer Share Posted February 28, 2015 @Tylrr, Could you try with your friend using a different persistant_storage_root and see if that makes a difference? (Launch it with -persistent_storage_root PathToADirectoryHeCreatedWithThatAccount) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylrr Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 Fixed it! When he installed Eets Munchies, he must've accidentally done it as Root, because the folder belonged to the root, and so DST couldn't write to it. We deleted the folder & reinstalled DST - works perfectly now! Thanks! We never would have figured this out if you hadn't mentioned .klei! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
