Problems installing Morpheus 2.0
 
Help! I can't install Morpheus 2.0. I have a P-IV 1.7 based system running W2K (clean install/new format). When I try to install Morpheus, I get to the Java installation. Then it dies w/ the following error message:

"An i/o error occurred while installing a file. This is normally caused by bad installation media or a corrupt installation file." Any thoughts?

Try another gnutella client. BearShare, LimeWire, Gnucleus and Shareaza are very good (if not better) alternatives.

He? :confused:

Morpheus is based on the Gnucleus source and Gnucleus is written in c++, so why they need java?

Or did they write an own client now? :p

You should really get an update. Morpheus 2.0 is based upon last year's Jtella code (jtella.sf.net) and was developed by a former furthurnet developer (furthurnet.sf.net), and furthurnet was based upon furi, which is another gnutella client in java.

They dropped Gnucleus because of all the bloated features nobody needs, - like ultrapeers, swarming,...

Help!
 
I already have limewire installed, but frankly I don't think it's as good as morpheus. Otherwise I wouldn't be trying to install Morpheus :-) Anybody know what's causing this error? The error occurs while the installer is copying the file musiccitydll2.dll from C:\winnt\system32\musiccitydll2.dll. It says "an i/o error occurred while installing a file. This is normally caused by bad installation media or a corrupt installation file." Ideas?

OK, found the fix!
 
Well, I found a copy of Morpheus 1.9 on the net, and installed that. It wouldn't connect to anything, but I installed Morpheus 2.0 over that, and it worked. Hello? I never saw anything saying that Morpheus 2.0 is a patch and won't install w/o 1.9!

Who needs ultrappers and swarming when you can get a buggy client with a lot of spyware? :)
