Updater hangs on Lavastorm (Icons)

Khieran · #1 11-20-2008, 11:00 AM

I'm trying to run the updater today (it's worked the past two days just fine) and it hangs up on Lavastorm (Icons) - to the point I have to kill the program. I've tried deleting all the files having to do with Lavastorm in order to force a new update, but it still hangs up.

Any suggestions?

I am also having this exact issue. It hangs on lavastorm icons then after like 5 minutes says error this file is in use by another program.

I did check and without EQ2 updater running it is not in use by anything I can delete or move it but as soon as i start eq2map updater it does it again. It seems the EQ2map updater itself is the program using the file its trying to update... lol anyway i hope this helps you guys find the issue.

I still trying to find where the error comes from, but its so rare.
Most time a reboot of the computer helps.

I have tried rebooting my pc a couple times and it still hangs on that one lavastorm file.

thanks for all the effort yall put into this.

To help you guys out in the meantime I moved the lavastorm icons to the end of the filelist, so even if it hangs at least you get all other updates first. Hope it doesn't hang at another file now...

thanks that should help us get in game alot faster.

i found if i let it stay stuck for 5-10 minutes it errors out and downloads the other files but your temp solution would make it alot faster to just close and bypass that file thanks
