Setup quiting with no errors -el capitan
Hello,
I am visiting a friend for a while and trying to install eso on an imac that I left here a couple of years ago. it is on el capitan, the update just before sierra, and is an all in one but not a retina display, it has a 21.5 inch display at 1920x1080 resolution. It's a nice and fairly new imac.
I normally play on my windows pc.
When I download the file from my account page everything seems to be fine and it downloads to the downloads folder. I am in the main administrative account by the way, and the firewall is taken care of and is allowing the game through correctly, and I have great internet here.
When I click on the eso setup icon from the downloads folder though, setup appears in the tray for about a minute, doing nothing and being unclickable, and then it just disappears with no errors. From time to time, three times out of twelve tries, i get the null point error. I have restarted the system and checked the internet settings and everything that the support page says to do for null point but nothing changes. I can't even find any other file, just the single download file from the account page. In other words, it is not unloading itself anywhere.
I could use some help

Slammer99uk✭✭✭A couple of things i can think might help you.
- open console then try and launch the installer, check for any messages in console which might be related.
- right click the installer icon, get info, then check the permissions section - Try changing it to 777 then apply to all subfolders.
One further thought - You are double clicking the zip file or the setup app that is in the zip file?

Thanks for the reply Slammer.
By console, do you mean the Terminal? I went into the setup file via "show package contents" and went into the MacOS folder and ran Setup.
I see the following errors:
ERROR: transport error 202: bind failed: Address already in use
ERROR: JDWP Transport dt_socket failed to initialize, TRANSPORT_INIT(510)
JDWP exit error AGENT_ERROR_TRANSPORT_INIT(197): No transports initialized [debugInit.c:750]
FATAL ERROR in native method: JDWP No transports initialized, jvmtiError=AGENT_ERROR_TRANSPORT_INIT(197)
sh: line 1: 2946 Abort trap: 6
I checked the permissions and it says that I have read/write permissions but that is the only thing that shows for any account on the computer. I don't have an option to change the permissions other than to "read only", other than read/write.
It did not come as a zip file, just as the mac installer icon which says that it is an application file. It does not show that it is a zip file.

smacx250✭✭✭✭✭Setup can be a problem sometimes. You can try what is in this post (direct install of the launcher from the post it links to):

How long should the US Launcher stay as "creating download"? It has been doing so for about 5 minutes now..."*** Chi: A brave man likes the feel of nature on his face, Jack.
