New FAF crash on startup

[noobymcnoobcake]

when I click fa forever lobby file to open FAF a message box pops open saying
"an error occurred"
""see the log file "C:\Forged alliance Forever - Lobby\FAForever.exe.log" for details"

Here is the error message in that log file

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 17, in <module>
File "util\__init__.pyc", line 77, in <module>
File "logging\__init__.pyc", line 1511, in basicConfig

File "logging\__init__.pyc", line 912, in _open
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\ProgramData\\FAForever\\logs\\faforever.log'

Have tried reinstalling FAF 3 times and it don't work.

I think you have the same thing that Casimus:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=704&p=7123#p7123

Will fix this today. Sorry. The current workaround is to create the logfile manually. Sorry for that, it got broken with the IRC hotfix because I didn't have time to test the new logging system in all cases.

There should be an update that fixes this. Unfortunately, people with the crash can't autoupdate so get the fresh download from www.faforever.com/faf/FAForeverLobby.msi
