I have downloaded the .run file to install Americas Army as stated by the Wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AmericasArmy) but ran into the following error on install:

loki_setup: Read failure on armyops250.tar.bz2


I have no idea what to do :confused:

that file appears to be zipped, in order for it to be installed the ending must be .run

in a terminal in the directory where armyops250.tar.bz2 is do the following:

tar jxf armyops250.tar.bz2

that should unzip it to the run file, then proceed to run the loki command. Hope that helps

The file I have is armyops250-linux.run

I use:

sudo sh ./armyops250-linux.run

Then the loki installer pops up, I click install, and it begins to install some files and then gives me that error.

sounds like it is a bad download, try from a different source, if thats not it, im not too familiar with A.A. to help you.

I thought it might have been a bad download but it passes the archive integrity check :confused:

it might be because you don't have enough disk space so the self extracting .run file is not able to self extract. Are you running on low disk space ? (use "df ." to find out)
