G'day. Was looking in the IRC channel for help, but my waking hours and the waking hours of the people on the channel can be described as a Venn diagram with two circles that are each actually on a completely separate and different diagram.

I created a series of ribbon packs for Final Frontier, and uploaded them to Kerbalstuff. Everything seemed to go well. I received the plaudits and admiration of my peers. The sun broke through the clouds and illuminated me.

I ticked the box saying "yeah, why not" when it asked me if I wanted to put it onto CKAN. Then waited. Patiently. Very patiently. Staring intently at the screen for days.

Then I realised that the metafile that Kerbalstuff wants for my packs is probably wrong.

Please see:

...I'm pretty sure that it needs something like this:

 

...and etc. right?

Clearly I've done something wrong. I don't know how to fix this. Please feel free to subject me to the LOLZ and call me a n00b. After that, any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.

Something along those lines, but there's also going to be a problem with the licence string. What's the "AU" part for?

EDIT: Ah, Australian port for jurisdictional purposes. Looks like they haven't been added to the list of CKAN licences. I'm going to set it to the international version for now, if that's ok and look into getting the schema updated. Don't suppose you'd consider moving up to the 4.0 international version overall?

I'll make a start on fixing up the NetKANs.

Oh, you also need a dependency for FinalFrontier, of course.

This should work.

It's the version ported to Australia... Pretty sure its the same as everything else. I'm just used to using it (for other things). Not sure if it makes a difference in the grand scheme of things, so happy to change to the unported version if it makes things easier.

Also, thanks. :)

Yeah, no problem.

So, I also have a problem upgrading a mod.

I started using CKAN a few days ago, and Dynamic Texture Loader just got an update.

The following error occurs no matter if the downloaded or cached version is used.

I am running Windows 7 in 64 bit, KSP is 32 bit.

See the end of this message for details on invoking 
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

how to get a Mac compatable version ?

You just have to install mono : http://www.mono-project.com/docs/about-mono/supported-platforms/osx/

Then download the ckan.exe : https://github.com/KSP-CKAN/CKAN/releases/tag/v1.16.0

Save this .exe file in ~/bin/ for example.

Then typing in a terminal "mono ~/bin/ckan.exe" should work (and open the window of CKAN).

You need to upgrade your .Net to 4.5, I think

So, a few dozens pages back, I noted that I get an error with CKan on running the .exe. This hasn't changed over the last few versions. Running Win 7, latest version of Ckan, .net 4.5 installed, etc, etc. I cannot seem to get any further info on why it crashes, apart from what I'd written the last time and the error seems to be the same one.

Don't know much about the Windows version, but you could try searching the wider Internet for help on clr.dll, since it's not part of CKAN.

I have noticed a regular crash when doing a brand new instal using a large set of mods. Where CKAN downloads all the mods and then suffers a time out error during install. It the sheer volume of mods that CKAN does seem to handle well in the first past. It is easy for the user to try again with the same mods and they will work. The only down side is if your not using an established .ckan file a lot of your choices get lost in the crash.

The whole problem can of course be avoided by not using a massive mod list straight away. Still worth reporting as shows an interesting behaviour that may confuse our issues down the line.Here a crash report..

Depends on whether the ships are in correct SPH and VAB folders. If they are, then CKAN can install them, if not, then it can't so far. There are some ideas for how to handle it, but none have yet been implemented.

Then I guess I'll ask-- What's the correct way? I haven't tried including ships so far, but the mod I'm working on now will include some.At the moment they're in the zip's path "<modname>/Ships/VAB" but I can easily change it if needed.

"<modname>/Ships/VAB" will work, though just "Ships/VAB" is easier, since we don't need to filter the Ships directory out from the main install stanza.

Why is this pull request failing?

https://github.com/KSP-CKAN/NetKAN/pull/2933

You'll need to change "spec" to "v1.4" to allow a "find" stanza in your "install".

Hi there. Thanks for the reply! It's the following error message:

 


Problem signature:
  Problem Event Name:	APPCRASH
  Application Name:	ckan(1).exe
  Application Version:	0.0.0.0
  Application Timestamp:	55763180
  Fault Module Name:	clr.dll
  Fault Module Version:	4.0.30319.17929
  Fault Module Timestamp:	4ffa59b1
  

 

Like I said, clr.dll is part of .Net, not CKAN. Your .Net installation may be corrupted.

First off, thanks for this incredible piece of software, it has made messing with mods incredibly easy.  

A quick question though, is there a way to group mods?  Say I install three mods which work well together, and have a save file for that set of mods.  Then I want to uninstall those three and install another three for a different experience in a different saved game.  Is there a way to group mods together and install/uninstall them all at once?  Say, uninstall group 1, all mods from that group are uninstalled, then install group 2, installing all those mods?  I say 3 mods for the sake of the example, but currently I have 66 different mods and extensions, etc... installed, all centered around Realism Overhaul and the related mods, and I want to group those all together so I can uninstall them and download a new pack of mods based around the SETI pack.

Is there already a way to do this in CKAN?  Without selecting each mod independently of course.

Realistically, your best option is to copy your original KSP install and make a separate copy for each set of mods you want to use. Repeatedly installing and uninstalling mods is a recipe for disaster, even with the benefits of CKAN.

Alright, I figured that would be the best option, maybe something like this would be good to implement in the future!

I'm having a problem where I can't install one specific type of mod: Any mod that edits planets, I can't even install Kopernicus. (The apply button is greyed out)

I tried creating another instance of KSP that has no mods, and I still have the same problem.

I could install the mods manually, but I still find this a bit strange.

@politas if you have the time can you please that a look at TAC Fuel balancer. Can we approve it for KSP 1.0.5?

I don't know if  @TaranisElsu is around to confirm. All I know is the feedback  in the mod thread would suggest that it is 1.0.5 compatible. It is also a pretty important mod for TAC life support users.
