`EOS Overlay` won't install on Linux in `Flatpak` version `2.9.1` of the `Heroic Games Launcher` #2916

Broiler7081 · 2023-07-26T23:09:06Z

Describe the bug

Made a fresh installation of the Flatpak version 2.9.1 of Heroic. I tried to install the EOS Overlay. After I hit the button to install the EOS Overlay, I got the message The EOS Overlay is being installed.... The log tells me that the process is aborted close after, but heroic stays in its state forever, and I have to forcefully kill heroic to cancel the not working installation.

Steps to reproduce

Expected behavior

EOS Overlay should be installed, or the process should be at least abortable.

I pushed a fix for this, until it's released you can workaround this issue by running this in a terminal XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/home/rieso/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/legendaryConfig /app/bin/heroic/resources/app.asar.unpacked/build/bin/linux/legendary eos-overlay install --path /home/rieso/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/tools/eos_overlay (from your log there), then restart heroic and it should work

Broiler7081 · 2023-07-29T22:10:29Z

Thank you, @arielj, for the pushing and the idea how to work around this issue.

First, I got this message from my terminal:

zsh: no such file or directory: /app/bin/heroic/resources/app.asar.unpacked/build/bin/linux/legendary

I assume, the response is related to the flatpak environment, so I tried this.

$ flatpak run --command=bash com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl
$ XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/home/rieso/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/legendaryConfig /app/bin/heroic/resources/app.asar.unpacked/build/bin/linux/legendary eos-overlay install --path /home/rieso/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/tools/eos_overlay

After restarting Heroic, the EOS Overlay seems to be installed.

Edit: #2916 (comment)
If anybody has the same problem. Please consider using these commands, instead of the previous ones.

$ flatpak run --command=bash com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl
$ XDG_CONFIG_HOME=~/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/legendaryConfig /app/bin/heroic/resources/app.asar.unpacked/build/bin/linux/legendary eos-overlay install --path ~/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/tools/eos_overlay

As mentioned in #2916 (comment) rieso is my username. The suggested command should work regardless of what username you have given to your user account.

Roccoriu · 2023-07-30T14:45:44Z

This does not work for me. I ran the command in the flatpak environment as outlined by @MeteorKLINT.
I double checked if it's installed through the cli and it tells me that it's installed.

this is the output when I run it again.

Yet even after rebooting my pc it still does not show up as installed in the ui.

arielj · 2023-07-30T15:16:03Z

can you share heroic's logs when you click that Install button from the UI? maybe the path is different?

Broiler7081 · 2023-07-30T15:28:32Z

@Roccoriu the command

$ XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/home/rieso/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/legendaryConfig /app/bin/heroic/resources/app.asar.unpacked/build/bin/linux/legendary eos-overlay install --path /home/rieso/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/tools/eos_overlay

contains my user rieso you should replace it with your username. I will edit the workaround to make this work regarding any username.

gaberilde · 2023-07-30T18:21:54Z

$USER should do it if you replace your username you can also replace /home and the username to just ~ this points to your home folder no matter what

gaberilde · 2023-07-30T18:22:45Z

$ XDG_CONFIG_HOME=~/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/legendaryConfig /app/bin/heroic/resources/app.asar.unpacked/build/bin/linux/legendary eos-overlay install --path ~/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/tools/eos_overlay

this should hopefully work

ThomasHineXYZ · 2023-07-30T22:26:16Z

What would the adapted fix be for this on Windows? I'm experiencing this same issue on Windows 10.

check my answer in the windows issue #2905

sanlean · 2023-07-31T01:53:45Z

Thanks @MeteorKLINT it worked perfectly on SteamDeck using Windows 11

ileeds · 2023-08-01T05:26:30Z

When I follow these instructions, upon reopening Heroic Games Launcher and selecting a game (apologies for typos, I can't copy/paste):

An error has occurred! Try to Logout and Login on your Epic account.
[cli] INFO: Using prefix "/home/deck/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Fall Guys"

Any ideas?

Broiler7081 · 2023-08-01T15:04:37Z

Hey @ileeds, it appears that you started Fall Guys. Is that true? Did you try different games?

ileeds · 2023-08-01T21:25:47Z

Hey @MeteorKLINT, thanks for the reply. It seems this error was due to my use of the legendary eos-overlay command as I was trying to debug another issue, sorry about that!

Corben78 · 2023-08-07T08:57:00Z

Just hit this issue as well, as it hasn't been release yet, a copy-paste solution for debian package users:
XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$HOME/.config/heroic/legendaryConfig /opt/Heroic/resources/app.asar.unpacked/build/bin/linux/legendary eos-overlay install --path $HOME/.config/heroic/tools/eos_overlay

Etuldan · 2023-08-07T15:15:42Z

I have a similar issue on Windows 10 OS.
The workaround above is inapplicable on a such OS.

@Etuldan there is a separate issue for this on Windows.

Looks like it is set to be fixed in the next update.
