[Beta 7 and also Beta 8] Installation errors with EET

[maus]

Based on other topics and Davids response, I think it is an issue with EET (installed after EET_end). 

The error is: 

ERROR: Sys_error("override/lu*.2da: Invalid argument") (or similar referring to lu*.2da)

for the subraces component it is: ERROR: Failure("resource [*.2da] not found for 'COPY'")

This happens for quite a lot of components (IWD Bard Songs, IWD Paladins, Thiefs Evasion, Traps Rebalancing, Revised favoured enemies, Revised Shapeshift Powers, Revised Specialty Priests, Specialty mages receive one spell if possible, Bloodlines for Sorcerers, Dragon Disciples can by any chromatic, rebalanced and revised kits, elemental specialists, force mage, militant wizards, blood rager, new choices for gods, multiclass druids,... at this point I stopped the installation because I think there is something pretty wrong)

I also noticed a lot of errors of this style in the debug-file, but those have not been preventing the installation of the components.

DEBUG-File has the size fo 20 MB and can't be attached. 

Next steps:

- trying to find more topcis here related to this error

- trying to install the mod before EET-end to check if this changes anything.

If this thread

is correct, then it might be a kit or something else that blocks the installation. Didn't find other threads with this error message.

Tried to install before EET-end. Doesn't change anything. 

Some error-messages from the DEBUG-File:

ERROR: COPY ~luMT0.2da~ ~override/lu*.2da~ FAILED: cannot open target
Stopping installation because of error.

New installation with Beta 8 (including Hotfix). Only tried to install one critical component (bard songs from IWD), so the debug-file is small enough to be attached. 

SETUP-DW_TALENTS.DEBUG

[maus]

The following spell components could be installed. Next critical one in line is new races and subraces. Created also a debug-file for this error by trying to install only this component. 

SETUP-DW_TALENTS.DEBUG

[maus]

Installation with significant less mods let me install most components. Not been able to install new races and subraces with the relevant error message: 

ERROR locating resource for 'COPY'
Resource [*.2da] not found in KEY file:
        [./chitin.key]

Which is a bit strange on what is not found in the chitin.key-file ...

Question relating to these errors: could there be a conflict between ToF (using kits for multiclass) and the multiclass-kit-script from Argent a7#add_kit_ex.tpa? Maybe also paging @argent77

I suspect that Aura is causing incompatibility with ToF and Aura is using this tpa for the x/articifier multiclasses.

The latest bug report here is April 6, and beta 9 came out April 15, so I'm going to ignore this for now - let me know if it's reproducible on beta 9.

[maus]

The bug was reproducible with ToF9. But I can't point on Aura. Because there are several mods that I had not installed in the minimal-mod EET version (EET-14 in my numbering) compared to the EET-installation with many mods (EET-13). Actually I'm doing EET-15 with most of the mods of EET-13 but without Aura (and Sirene). And the installation is working. 

But this no proof or justification, just a hint. 

And regarding priorisation for the author: If this doesn't ring a bell, assign a low priority to this issue

[DavidW]

Yes, I think I'll leave this one for now. Thanks though.
