Hi,
when i try to install the sh file ( from GOG )
I receive this error in terminal:

Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing SOMA (GOG.com) 100%
Collecting info for this system...
Operating system: linux
CPU Arch: x86_64
trying mojosetup in bin/linux/x86_64
USING en_US



PANIC
Initial setup failed. Cannot continue.


Error: Couldn't run mojosetup

So I cannot install it ( and play)

My specs: UBUNTU 15.04 - NVIDIA 760GTX
I have all other frictional games in steams and everything works well...

Can you help me ?

Thank you

Could be that the temp partition does not have enough free space. I think you can do a --help and then there is a command you can use to specify your own temp location to use during installation.

Hi,
the temp folder /tmp is in the main partition, I've free 50GB of space on my 256GB SSD

I try to run with --targhet and I can set a target folder, but the problem remain.


The Soma SH file is an self-extracting file.
I discoveret that also with AMNESIA some users had same problem and resolved extracting the SH with command "unzip ./Amnesia*.SH", but unzip do not accept the Soma*.sh file.

I also download again the 11GB from GOG, but the problem remain.

Any suggestion ?

Thank you

I'll google around a bit for amnesia installer solutions to see if I find anything. Also, contact GOG support and ask them to help with the installer.

Ok,
I will post here a solution if I will find.

Thank you

OK maybe it has to do with the locale, thinking it ends after saying it is going to use en_US.

Check these threads:
https://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/th...SING+en_US
https://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/th...SING+en_US

So perhaps using these tip:

LANG=en_US ./PenumbraCollection-1.0.sh
or
DISPLAY= LANG=en_US ./PenumbraCollection-1.0.sh

on the SOMA installer might work?

No, It didn't work.
My $LANG is it_IT.UTF-8 , but even if I try to set LANG=it_IT.UTF-8 , will not works.

Now I will try to install LINUX MINT to another new partition for understand if it is a problem of a corrupted S.O. or a language bug.

Hi, I try to run the install from another LAPTOP with UBUNTU 15.04 and from a fresh installation of MINT 17.2 but I have always same error....

Maybe the problem is the language? In the error I read that installation file use the en_US... hope this problem will be fixed soon

I have solved the problem with a suggestion of GOG support.
Thank you

Can you post the solution for future reference?

Glad to hear it was solved!
