Plugin Linux System IOException Error when Updating/Installing Mods

[Hekate]

I'm new to Linux, I just transferred over from Windows, and I'm getting a System IOException error telling me that the Heliosphere plugin can't create a hard link. Is there anything that can be done about this. This is the error output:

Error type: System.IO.IOException
   Message: Failed to create hard link (0x5): D:\Games\FFXIV Online\penumbra\hs-ÆTHERIS UI AIO-1.3.3-7NZ\be40r2wc.avk -> D:\Games\FFXIV Online\penumbra\hs-ÆTHERIS UI AIO-1.3.3-7NZ\hldjevc2.azn
   HResult: 0x80070005

   at Heliosphere.DownloadTask.TestHardLinks() in /_/DownloadTask.cs:line 392
   at Heliosphere.DownloadTask.Run() in /_/DownloadTask.cs:line 173

Also, I'm on Manjaro Linux, if that's of any consequence.

Error 5, which is what you're having, is apparently "access denied". If you're on Linux, I expected to see Z: or X: instead of D: or C:. Did you set up D: specifically?

Edit: it appears Wine is being hidden by XL now, as well. Error 5 is supposed to be suppressed on Linux, so I'll have to push out a fix for this.

Try plugin version 4.4.5, which I just released.

Weird, because Penumbra accesses that same drive just fine. And no, I didn't set it up specifically. It's an external, so I just navigated to it. I keep my mod files there in case something happens so I don't lose anything.

I'll try that. I checked and Dalamud said there were no updates as of yet.

Yeah, it's not actually access denied. Wrong error code because of Wine.

And no, I didn't set it up specifically.

Very interesting! Mine didn't have drive letters for my other drives until I manually added them.

I'll try that. I checked and Dalamud said there were no updates as of yet.

If you're using Sea of Stars, it can take 5-10 minutes to pick up the update.

Well, whatever it was it looks like that update did the trick! I guess it's a happy coincidence my external had a letter. XD All the same though, thanks for your help, Anna! Things are working just fine now. And also, thanks for Heliosphere too. It's an amazingly useful tool for the community.
