Access to WAR.exe Denied

Post#1 » Thu Nov 03, 2016 5:34 pm

Hello!

I'm brand new to Return of Reckoning. I had no idea there was a private server for WAR, and was extremely happy to have found you guys!

I followed the step by step to download the client and the launcher. Upon launching and attempting to log in, I received this error message:

Error starting: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\X\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\WAR.exe' is denied.
at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
at System.IO.FileStream.Init(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, Boolean useRights, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES secAttrs, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy, Boolean useLongPath, Boolean checkHost)
at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy)
at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode)
at RoRLauncher.Client.patchExe()
at RoRLauncher.Client.Handle(PacketIn packet)

After searching the forums for a solution, I came across direction to uncheck the "read only" box in the properties of the WAR.exe file.

Now, the game appears to log me in; however, there is no option to create a character, and I receive this new error message:

Data.myp:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'C:\X\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\mythloginserviceconfig.xml'.
File name: 'C:\X\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\mythloginserviceconfig.xml'
at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
at System.IO.FileStream.Init(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, Boolean useRights, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES secAttrs, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy, Boolean useLongPath, Boolean checkHost)
at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access)
at RoRLauncher.Client.UpdateWarData()

I delved further into the forums for a solution, and all I could find was a suggestion that I might not have the data.myp file. I checked, and I do.

Any ideas how to solve this one?
