Wrye's Bash won't run from inside MO2

[Tabris]

So, i have MO2 installed and been trying to run Wrye's Bash from it but when i try i get a window asking if i want to overwrite a temporary file inside a folder on my "C:/Users/Username/AppData/Local/Temp". It then doesn't open at all regardless of the option selected. The BashBugDump.log ends with the line "WindowsError: [Error 32] The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process: u'c:\\users\\tabris\\appdata\\local\\temp\\WryeBash__e61yq'" that appears to be the cause of the problem. The folder and the file, however, only are created when i run Wrye's Bash and the file is deleted after it crashes (Then when i run it again it creates another folder with another name). I have even tried reinstalling the whole thing but it didn't help.
 
I noticed that the logs tend to appear in c:\users\tabris\appdata\local\ModOrganizer\logs instead of in the folder where i installed Mod Organizer, and then tried using the default folder for the profiles (also inside /appdata/local/ModOrganizer) as i suspected that might be the cause of the problem but it also didn't fix it. Both MO2 and Wrye's Bash are outside the Program Files folder or other UAC folder (although it shouldn't matter as i have UAC turned off). Logs below (do tell me if i'm missing something):

I never get the logs or bash patch in overwite, they are saved to the data folder. Its with the portable version of MO2. Going to test instance version.

 

Same for instance version https://i.imgur.com/yTjpM50.png

 

Anyway it works, in a fashion.

 

If I can help troubleshoot the above, let me know.

How have you got MO2 and WB setup? A copy of your logs would be good to see.

[cptmcsplody]

Sure not sure if they will help

Well that is the weirdest thing I have seen, nothing out of the ordinary jumps out at me but I have never heard/seen anyone have those things in their 'Overwrite' before.

The "rule of thumb" with MO/MO2 is this: if the file exists, edit the original and keep it in the original location. If it is a new file then create it and save it in 'Overwrite'.

WB uses it own system to store temp folders which will be %AppData%\Local\Temp\. Those files/folders may for some unknown reason be diverted here?

 

Anyway if you are able to get functionality from this setup, let's not break anything with trying to fix whatever is (not)broken.

I have the same error.  What I found in addition to everything you all have noted already.  Is that even though, I manually set all of the paths in bash.ini to child directories of my Mopy folder, Win 10 is still insisting on using Appdata\Local when Wrye Bash is run though MO2.  With all the same bash.ini settings, WB runs perfectly outside of MO2.

 

I am on Win 10 Insider Build 16237, rolled back from 16241.  16241 will not let you run MO1 games with mods.  I verified this myself.

 

So, I have modified the batch file submitted above and will try this work-around.  Thanks for the batch coding work.  Appreciate it.

 

F.Q.

[fortunequacker]

Regarding my previous post.  The batch file runs great for me until it reaches a large BSA file, then it hangs.  I tried some different ROBOCOPY flags with no joy.

 

In other news, after a complete Windows 10 reinstall to IP 16237, I still cannot get Wrye Bash to run through MO2.  I can also confirm the same issue with FO4.  I firmly believe, at this point, something in Windows 10 is causing this issue.  Unfortunately, at some point, all users of Windows 10, MO2, and Wrye Bash will be affected.  We can only hope that Tannin and the NMM Team will come through with a better solution with a new and improved NMM.

 

F.Q.

[shadow1]

More problems with insider builds of win 10, I advise to stay clear of it for now.

 

MO2 + Wrye + Insider = no good

MO1 + FNIS + Insider = no good

 

Probably more.

Same problem with SSE and MO2 + Wrye Bash here:

Windows Insider 16288.

 

Anyone found a solution?

 

(It works with MO1 New Vegas)

[outdatedTV]

 

Nor me too, just tried it, different issue I suspect. 

 

In order to get wrye bash to work for what I want it to do (create bashed patch) I knocked up a batch script that rebuilds the skyrim install with all the mods based on the load order in MO2 it worked for me.  Takes ages on large mod setup and about as kludgy as one can get but it works for me, to create bashed patches.  To use it you will need to modify it for your own paths and it needs somewhere between the size of a skyrim install and your Mod organizer folder to run, save as anyfilename.bat it your MO mods folder, and run. 

 

Tested only on my setup USE AT OWN RISK but it is here if any one wants it:

Crazy stuff, generating...

@mscheetham

 

Can you tell me what is C:\modOrganizerSky\tools\WBskyrim\Wrye Bash.exe?

 

Can I point to my G:\ProgiGry\SteamProg\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\Mopy\Wrye Bash.exe ?

 

I understand this bat file should create all the Data 

\textures

\meshes

...etc.

 

But it does not for me. Data folder is same as in the "real" game, without those. Any idea what I am doing wrong? Here's my batch file:

 

 

 

@echo off

set _Output=K:\xeditTEMP\Skyrim Special Edition

set _SteamPath=G:\ProgiGry\SteamProg\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition

set _ModList=..\profiles\Default\modlist.txt

title copying skyrim mods according to MO2 modlist order...

md "%_Output%\dataTEMP"

::get total amount of mods

Set /a _Lines=0

For /f %%j in ('Find "%_ModList%" /v /c ^< %_ModList%') Do Set /a _Lines=%%j

SET /A XCOUNT=0

setlocal enableextensions enabledelayedexpansion

 

::start looping through mod folders  from modlist.txt and copy to temp folder

 

FOR /f "tokens=1,2* delims=+" %%G IN (%_Modlist%) DO (

    cls

    SET /A _XCOUNT+=1

    echo Copying skyrim mods according to MO2 modlist order...

    title Copying skyrim mods according to MO2 modlist order...

    echo Copying mod !_XCOUNT! of %_Lines%

    echo Copying mod "%%G"

    IF NOT "%_XCOUNT%" == "1" robocopy /s /xc /xn /xo /xx "%%G" "%_Output%\dataTEMP" >nul

)

cls

echo Copying skyrim mods to final folder...

Title Copying skyrim mods to final folder...

robocopy /MOV /S /IS "%_Output%\dataTemp" "%_Output%\data"

cls

echo All done... copying your plugins file to beth folder now

copy "..\profiles\Default\plugins.txt" "C:\Users\0wner\AppData\Local\Skyrim Special Edition\plugins.txt"

pause

"G:\ProgiGry\SteamProg\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\Mopy\Wrye Bash.exe" -g "Skyrim Special Edition" -o "K:\xeditTEMP\Skyrim Special Edition"

 

Alright, found it, different profile name in MO I have than "Default"

Now after completing the bat, when WB runs, it says that the list has been sanitized due to missing plugins and again I am left with the vanilla esms in the list. But getting closer to making the bat right I guess

Still get this after running the bat:

I reported the original issue on github here:

[outdatedTV]

I have a fix. You need to use this python version of Wrye Bash:

https://github.com/wrye-bash/wrye-bash/tree/utumno-wip

 

Here's how to install it and use from MO2:

https://github.com/wrye-bash/wrye-bash/wiki/Wrye-Bash-and-Mod-Organizer

 

On first run enable and then disable Auto Ghosting. The Bashed Patch will go to Overwrite. Just move it manually to your SkyrimSE Data folder. I am now building a game using this python version and it works fine on Win10 build 16288.

[GrantSP]

I know you've posted in GitHub as this being a MO2 issue but it still falls into the problem of the Windows update breaking something. I have Win10 version 1607 and WB works perfectly fine inside MO2.
