Unable to run Wurm

[Helmshroom 8]

Was trying to see if I could get wurm to run on my linux box and I am getting this error:

Unexpected crash while launching login The error was: <null>

It's possible you might figure out what's wrong from the log file below, but if you can't, post the full log on the wurm online forums, and someone else might be able to help you.

Not that common of an error, which gpu/driver are you trying to run with? Might be worth testing with another desktop environment

[Helmshroom 8]

robert@localhost:~$ glxinfo | grep OpenGL
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig
robert@localhost:~$ lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 VGA
00:0f.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: VMware SVGA II Adapter [15ad:0405]
    Subsystem: VMware SVGA II Adapter [15ad:0405]
    Kernel driver in use: vmwgfx
    Kernel modules: vmwgfx
 

not sure how to fix this, not related to wurm seems to be my ubuntu setup

You won't have much luck using a virtual machine probably yeah..

[Theodein 174]

I don't know if this is still relevant but this is probably your issue

 

/home/USERNAME/Downloads/ <--- 

 

Try moving all releated files into a custom made directory and try to run it.

 

Let's say you create dir /home/USERNAME/whatever

Try to run it from there and if it don't work out try to exclude any permission errors.

 

sudo chmod -R 777 /home/USERNAME/whatever

 

If it still don't work out for you , remove the folder , place it on your desktop and to an attempt to run it from there by 

 

 

java -jar wurm.jar

That issue is caused by the update being rolled back, and your client being updated before the roll back. See https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/announcement/35-client-connection-issues/

 

You need to launch the 'Java Control Panel' to remove the updated client - and then re-download the old client from the website.
