Trouble installing and running Wakfu

[sffvba[e0rt]

Hi,

Currently running Ubuntu 12.04 Beta (64-bit) and I am having trouble installing / Running Wakfu.

I downloaded the linux client from the website, a file called "Wakfu_unix.sh" which is around 24.3MB in size.

If I try and run the file from Nautilus nothing happens. Running it from Terminal I get a message that the following:

nlsthzn@circle:~/Downloads$ ./Wakfu_unix.sh 
Unpacking JRE ...
Preparing JRE ...
Starting Installer ...
Could not display the GUI. This application needs access to an X Server.
*******************************************************************
You can also run this application in console mode without
access to an X server by passing the argument -c
*******************************************************************
nlsthzn@circle:~/Downloads$ 
nlsthzn@circle:~/Downloads$

If I run it with the -c option it runs through the installation and I end up with a directory with three files (uninstall, UpLauncher and Wakfu) plus one hidden folder with several files in it.

Trying to run Wakfu gives me this:

The archive /home/nlsthzn/ankama/Wakfu/core.jar does not exist.
nlsthzn@circle:~/ankama/Wakfu$
nlsthzn@circle:~/ankama/Wakfu$

Trying to run UpLauncer gives me:

./UpLauncher 
./UpLauncher: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
nlsthzn@circle:~/ankama/Wakfu$

Googling libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 got me a hit to make sure libgtk2.0-0 is installed and it is.

I have found nothing on the net thus far to assist with this installation even though I have read on this forum there is issues using a 64-bit distro but that they can be overcome.

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

for now it works well on my oneiric 32bit.

ok i tried it on 12.04 64bit. i get this:

Unpacking JRE ...
Preparing JRE ...
./Wakfu_unix.sh: 197: ./Wakfu_unix.sh: bin/unpack200: not found
Error unpacking jar files. The architecture or bitness (32/64)
of the bundled JVM might not match your machine.

guess i will be installing 32bit precise or staying with 32bit oneiric for a while till they add 64bit support.

oh and might be better to merge the threads and specify in the title is 64bit.

Works fine here on Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit. Which Java are you using? Are 32-libs installed?

orion@universe:~$ sh '/home/orion/Downloads/Wakfu_unix.sh'

in Ubuntu 11.10 (and 12.04) if you check Synaptic Package Manager (if installed), you'll notice that every libs have a 32-bit counterpart which usually named :i386.

Those libs are separated from the 64-bit libs when installed. The 32-bit version libs are installed under /lib32.

To get the most common 32-bit to run most 32-bit applications in a 64-bit environment just install the two meta-package:

ia32-libs
ia32-libs-multiarch:i386



Note, that I used Oracle Java instead of OpenJava to run Wakfu.

Was able to install ia32-libs (no ia32-libs-multiarch:i386 available).

No change.

Installed the game via the terminal again...

Now I get the following:

nlsthzn@circle:~/ankama/Wakfu$ sudo ./UpLauncher 
./UpLauncher: error while loading shared libraries: libjpeg.so.62: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
nlsthzn@circle:~/ankama/Wakfu$

I installed any package I could get in Synaptic that had the word libjpeg and a 6 and a 2 in it ... Obviously didn't work

I can't find out much about libjpeg.so.62 except it definitly isn't on my machine at the moment:

nlsthzn@circle:/$ sudo locate -i libjpeg.so
/home/nlsthzn/.i4j_jres/1.6.0/lib/i386/libjpeg.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjpeg.so.8
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjpeg.so.8.0.2
/usr/local/i4j_jres/1.6.0/lib/i386/libjpeg.so
nlsthzn@circle:/$

??

Install;

libjpeg62:i386

[sffvba[e0rt]

Install;

libjpeg62:i386

Thanks for the file... at this time I have already installed Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit... and even though the initial installation worked this time without any additional faffing around by me the game still didn't want to run.

UNTIL I installed libjpeg62 (seeing as I am already in the 32-bit version) and the game is now running and downloading the patched etc... So far so good, seems we got this one to work.

Thanks all for your assistance.
