Eastern Front Setup
« on: May 13, 2013, 11:04:53 AM »
Hello folks,

I want to install EF for my Steam COH (new Version) but now this message appeared. How can I fix that problem?





Regards

Seems like you don't have rights to overwrite/run/install some files or they are used by another programm. Try this:
-Check in your Process for a "RelicCoH.exe" or something like that and close the process
-Make sure you have administrator rights on your user account
-Start the installer with "Run as Admin"

Hope it helps.

I think I know what caused this, but in either case EF doesn't work on "relaunched" CoH yet.

The problem is that the path + file name is over 255 chars, which is a limit in Windows.

Also you got an extra /Company of Heroes/ in there, between Relaunch and EF.

So you mean, to install the EF into a seperate file between Relaunch and EF?

Or maybe I should wait, until the Steam CoH works with EF?

No, but you are doing it there :). But...

I'd recommend to wait until EF works with Steam CoH.

Patch should be coming before the weekend unless our testing discovers another critical issue.
