#Gog galaxy 64 bit update
I'm happy to make the (currently 1.3Meg sized) log available if needed so the actual update process and errors can be seen and maybe solved. that should take place in maybe 10 minutes or so. instead i'm waiting another few minutes to see what happens when the updater fires off again after 6 hours have passed. i noted in the log that it reports triggering the "update needed" dialog in the GUI but i have not yet opened the GUI. it did also detect the libGLESv2.dll change that i had made and noted in issue #10. Looking at the log this morning, i see that about 03:05 local time, the updater fired up and successfully pulled in everything needed for an update. in any case, i left it running (minimized in the tray) over night. without looking at the top of the log, i think it tried the update again but i'm not sure. when the process finished, my system was still running the old 1.2.66 version of GOG.Īt this point, i exited the system, rebooted to be sure everything was clean, established a quick script to run gog-galaxy-wine with output redirection to a log file, and started gog-galaxy-wine again.

i mentioned it previously in one of my response above. i did not have my logging process established so from memory, the error was "no desktop shell available" or something like that.
#Gog galaxy 64 bit install
the refresh of the snap worked but the install of GOG 2.0 failed.
#Gog galaxy 64 bit how to
So this is just to add some more detail that others might find interesting or necessary to figure out how to do the update to the latest version of GOG from the snap installed version 1.2.66. I also noted in the logs it was saying "win7 64-bit, WINE 5.2" but during the initial install of the GOG snap, i know i saw it specifically say win10 in one of the installation windows. it looked like it was attempting to update to version 2.0.37.384 ( 16:14). TBH, i was surprised that it actually started and got as far as it did. everything looks good up until the log reports something about "No desktop shell is present." and the updater undoes all the work it did.

I did find a bunch of logs and they do detail the update process taking place. when i manually started GOG again, it was the same version. but then (i think) a window popped up saying the update failed. new things were downloaded and installed and all seemed to be going fine. much to my surprise, it appeared to do the work needed. so i click on the update now button with some trepidation. at some point, GOG Galaxy popped up an update window with the options to update later or update now.
