HadouTF 2 points 3 points 4 points 2 years ago I struggled with this bug for months, spending countless hours waiting and trying stuff. I've tried it all: opting in (and out) of beta, verifying game cache, reinstalling Dota (which ended up having the 0/0 byte thing but losing all Dota files), reinstalling Steam, changing my download region. Verifying your game cache files will ensure that the files in your installation are all present, and all up to date. To verify your game cache files: Open your Steam library and right-click on Dota 2. Select 'Properties' from the menu. In the Properties window, navigate to the the 'Local Files' tab. Press the 'Verify integrity of game cache.

Hi,

There is sometimes my courier become ERROR, so I think there are issue on my client cache.

When I verify integrity of game cache, it said around 4k of file need to be acquired causing downloading 6.8 GB of file.

This happen to me before using a copy and paste dota 2 beta folder from my external, so I remove it back and redownload back the client, but I still sometimes found the ERROR ward,courier thing even in fresh install, so I verify back and the same thing happen, 4k file need to be acquired and need to redownload 6.8 GB of file.

Can you put up a gist of your content_log.txt after starting Steam and doing the validate? I'll pass it on to the Steam team.

I've sent it on.

This line apparently shows the issue but not the reason:

[2015-10-28 17:45:07] Validation: file locked '/home/xxxxxx/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/dota 2 beta/game/dota/pak01_081.vpk'

Validation can't open the given file so it fails and will revalidate the next time you try it. Does that file exist on disk? In particular is the exact case of the file path correct? If it's correct could anything else be accessing those files?

Is Reborn running while you're validating? If you exit it and validate to things work?

paste the output of this command in GitHub:

lsof /home/xxxxxx/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/dota 2 beta/game/dota/pak01_081.vpk

it allows us to see which process is locking the file (maybe Reborn, it's known for me that it doesn't close properly)

Verify integrity was made on fresh install of reborn, so I am not sure the file didn't exist or not before, and no, reborn isn't running during verify integrity. I already downloaded the 6.8 GB and I will need a better time to test back another verify cause I afraid its gonna redownload the 6.8 GB file again.

If anyone on Linux with fast internet might can help testing this , this is how to reproduce:

Delete Dota 2 from disk ( if installed).
Fresh install Dota 2.
Run entire update.
3.a. Maybe try play some game
Verify Integrity.

I am not sure if this happen to my machine only, but even it is, I think its something on Steam probably because this verify integrity been made on Fresh Install.

This has the same smell as some old, known filesystem-related quirks with steam. What filesystem is your home folder on?

commented Nov 3, 2015

ext4

@rained23 is there any encryption involved?

commented Nov 4, 2015

Yes, my home folder is encrypted.

But I think Steam will have the decrypted version of my file.

Unless steam doing informal way of it.
