Members Ssnake Posted August 5 Members Share Posted August 5 There's still an instance of the software active. Should no longer happen (since about 2018) but apparently still does, on occasion. Anyway, find all instances in the Task Manager, and end the processes there, then start again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipe Posted Saturday at 03:48 PM Author Share Posted Saturday at 03:48 PM Still no joy with this, tried uninstall, tried “—ignorelock” command. Anyone else have ideas? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jartsev Posted Saturday at 05:18 PM Share Posted Saturday at 05:18 PM Please try navigate to C:\ProgramData\eSim Games\Steel Beasts Map Tools\IPC, then locate and delete PackageDownloadManagerMutex file. This worked in the past, with earlier versions of Map Transfer Tools. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipe Posted Saturday at 06:07 PM Author Share Posted Saturday at 06:07 PM So as above this half works, at least I can open it now! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Sean Posted Saturday at 06:09 PM Administrators Share Posted Saturday at 06:09 PM For anyone else that stumbles upon this, either stop the map package manager service first, or "run net stop SBMapPackageDownloadService" from the command prompt to stop the service. Then delete the mutex and restart the service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibsonm Posted Sunday at 07:09 AM Share Posted Sunday at 07:09 AM Can I assume its one map at a time? It seemed to get upset when I tried to queue them all up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went to C:\ProgramData\eSim Games\Steel Beasts Map Transfer Tools\IPC to delete the "mutex" file but there wasn't one. 4. Then tried to restart the Steel Beasts Map Transfer Manager (double clicked or do I need to somehow manually load it in the task manager?) and it indicated it was "disconnected" clicking on "connect" resulted in: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RomeoNovember12 Posted Sunday at 08:30 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:30 PM I am having some trouble with Kiev E and W, Cherson and Oksboel. They download ok but don't show up in the mission editor despite refreshing the list. They can be opened in the map editor and saved as new packages and published under new names. After I do that they show up as selectable in the mission editor. Any ideas? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TankHunter Posted Sunday at 08:38 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:38 PM (edited) I know that there's two Oskboels. One is classified as an "autocreated base map" and the other is a delta for it. The delta map is the one that has been prettied up by @DK-DDAM I'll see if I can find the UID for the delta. Edit: The UID for the delta is 7e0e7e2e-27c9-4aad-9a85-8974d8496cd5 Edited Sunday at 08:39 PM by TankHunter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to the way how those maps were saved during their creation, please use 'All' or 'Published maps' filter options instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted Monday at 09:26 AM Share Posted Monday at 09:26 AM Update: Tried: "net stop SBMapPackageDownloadService" followed by "net start SBMapPackageDownloadService" Task Manager says its running. No "mutex" file to delete. Tried to launch the Steel Beasts Map Transfer Manager (V55) still says its disconnected. I presume there is no basic, bullet-proof FTP site or similar alternative? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted Monday at 10:01 AM Share Posted Monday at 10:01 AM Update 2: @inexus Pointed out that for some insane reason (yay Microsloth), even if your user account is an Admin user you need to tell CMD to run as an admin user?! Anyway, selected "run as admin" and got this: Launched the Steel Beasts Map Transfer Manager (V55) - still says its disconnected. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ssnake Posted Wednesday at 09:40 AM Members Share Posted Wednesday at 09:40 AM So, there's this entry in the Windows Start menu: Clicking the "Service Log Folder" opens a new Windows File Explorer window: The PackageTransferManagerLog.txt might contain useful information. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted Wednesday at 10:05 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:05 AM (edited) Copy of the latest one attached. I didn't see anything too obvious, but I don't know what I'm looking for. PackageTransferManagerLog.txt And a more recent one that just says the download failed: PackageTransferManagerLog.txt Edited Wednesday at 11:10 AM by Gibsonm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted Wednesday at 12:01 PM Members Share Posted Wednesday at 12:01 PM Yeah, that's not terribly illuminating. What do the serviceLog.txt files say? Note that a new file is created whenever the TransferManager service is being (re)started, e.g. after a Windows reboot. An error may only be found in one of the older log files. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry busy few days here. Will try to upload the last few days worth in the next 24 hours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
