[1.1.94] Error updating to .95: "Error opening update package: [...] Data-Lifecycle.html not found"

[P1tta]

maybe its only me, but my factorio runs into issues updateing
Error opening update package: File C:/Spiele/Factorio/Factorio Experimental/data/../doc-html/Data-Lifecycle.html not found

[Rseding91]

Does the file it mentions exist on disk?

[fishycat]

I had the same issue with updating. There were several .html's missing, data-lifecycle.html, global.html... Luckily I could copy them from my steam folder to my zip version and then it worked.
Strange thing is, I can't remember that I deleted them.

[Loewchen]

Are you on Avira antivir?

[P1tta]

Does the file it mentions exist on disk?

i cant find it

maybe someone can share the full path where it should be?

[fishycat]

It is in factorio folder, a folder called doc-html

[P1tta]

yeah there is no Data-Lifecycle.html

[husnikadam]

I have tried to update to latest version repeatedly but I keep getting an error. Factorio restart didn't help. Haven't tempered with install files. No mods installed. Should I try uninstalling and clean install?

I have the same error. A total of 5 files were missing.

The updater reported the following files:
- Data-Lifecycle.html
- Global.html
- Instrument.html
- Libraries.html
- Migrations.html

These files were missing in my current installations. After I had copied these files from the ZIP download of version .94 into my current installation, the update also worked.

[Sanqui]

Thank you for the reports, we are currently investigating the cause. The files are present in the full 1.1.94 package, and the update package to 1.1.95 attempts to modify them. The cause of them going missing is yet unknown. For now, if you run into this issue and wish to upgrade to 1.1.95 please download the full package.

P.S. Please let us know if you encounter this issue on Linux or Mac.

[Sanqui]

I believe I got this fixed for Windows. I was able to downloaded 1.1.94, deleted the affected files, and upgraded to 1.1.95 without an error. Please let us know if you still encounter this issue.

I will run the same fix for Mac and Linux just in case.

[Sanqui]

Update packages that work around this issue should now be available for all platforms. Please let us know if you still run into this issue or a similar one, otherwise I will mark this as fixed soon :)

[picklock]

I have tested it and the update could now be carried out without any problems.

Thank you for the quick solution to the problem.

I've tried updating today from 1.1.95 to 1.1.96 and got the same error message:

Update fehlgeschlagen: Checking update packages failed: File /Applications/factorio.app/Contents/data/../doc-html/auxiliary/data-lifecycle.html has unexpected content

Update fehlgeschlagen is "update failed" in german

I'm playing on mac and used version 1.1.95, but even with reinstalling last downloaded version 1.1.94 i get the same error. And the files are there in the game package, but in the folder /Applications/factorio.app/Contents/doc-html/auxiliary/data-lifecycle.html

I've tried updating today from 1.1.95 to 1.1.96 and got the same error message:

Update fehlgeschlagen: Checking update packages failed: File /Applications/factorio.app/Contents/data/../doc-html/auxiliary/data-lifecycle.html has unexpected content

Update fehlgeschlagen is "update failed" in german 😦

I'm playing on mac and used version 1.1.95, but even with reinstalling last downloaded version 1.1.94 i get the same error. And the files are there in the game package, but in the folder /Applications/factorio.app/Contents/doc-html/auxiliary/data-lifecycle.html

Sorry about the trouble but could you please copy the file

Code: Select all

/Applications/factorio.app/Contents/doc-html/auxiliary/data-lifecycle.html

somewhere to your home directory, create a .zip, and upload it as an attachment here on the forum? This will help us determine what has gone wrong. For now, the solution is to download the full 1.1.96 version.

[knusperelch]

No worries, you guys are amazing. Loving the game and I already loaded the full 1.1.96 to continue playing.

Unfortunately I overwrite the old install, but it happened with a fresh 1.1.94 install. I can install the 1.1.94 again and send you the file if you like, but I think the file should be right, after a new install, or?

I'm playing on mac and play the version, loaded from the website. no steam or something.

[knusperelch]

Updated today to the 1.1.97 without problems. Therefore I think the problem is fixed?
