The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!
FA doesn't launch through FAF on Linux
-
Hi,
I set up everything for Linux according to anything I can find on the topic, including the Wiki and stickied threads in #technical-help but I cannot get my game to launch through FAF. Forged Alliance launches fine on Steam. What's weird is I hosted a bot game just fine, and my friend watched the replay. But when we tried to play, I discovered I can not join their game, or any game, or even host another game myself.
Now I am getting the following error when trying to do anything in FAF:
NotifiableException(i18nKey=game.start.couldNotStart, i18nArgs=[]) at com.faforever.client.game.GameService.lambda$startGame$37(GameService.java:607) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture$UniApply.tryFire(CompletableFuture.java:642) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture.postComplete(CompletableFuture.java:506) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture.complete(CompletableFuture.java:2137) at com.faforever.client.fa.relay.ice.IceAdapterImpl.lambda$start$7(IceAdapterImpl.java:221) at java.base/java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:832) Caused by: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/home/m/apps/faf/run" (in directory "/home/m/.faforever/bin"): error=13, Permission denied at java.base/java.lang.ProcessBuilder.start(ProcessBuilder.java:1142) at java.base/java.lang.ProcessBuilder.start(ProcessBuilder.java:1073) at com.faforever.client.fa.ForgedAllianceService.launch(ForgedAllianceService.java:136) at com.faforever.client.fa.ForgedAllianceService.startGameOnline(ForgedAllianceService.java:81) at com.faforever.client.game.GameService.lambda$startGame$37(GameService.java:604) ... 5 more Caused by: java.io.IOException: error=13, Permission denied at java.base/java.lang.ProcessImpl.forkAndExec(Native Method) at java.base/java.lang.ProcessImpl.<init>(ProcessImpl.java:313) at java.base/java.lang.ProcessImpl.start(ProcessImpl.java:244) at java.base/java.lang.ProcessBuilder.start(ProcessBuilder.java:1109) ... 9 more
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.. thank you.

The highlighting on this forum post made it clear my run file needs to be executable. That fixed it. Thank you.
