I think this bug was fixed in recent daily builds.

I have this same error as well on a new install from git using arch. Strange thing is, it only happens on mod scenarios.

VCMI_SERVER_log.txt ends with:

VCMI_Client.log ends with:

The maps are in the correct folder along with the other scenario maps.
There don't seem to be any issues with permissions and they all vary in size.

Have you installed Heroes Chronicled mod for example? Because this mod contains eight submods that can't be enabled all at one, only one of them. Such conditions somethimes cause crashes, because few mods try to change the same files at the same moments.

This error occurred on all mod scenarios I tried (HOTA, WOG, Heroes Chronicles) with only one expansion submod enabled at a time.

VCMI actually doesn't support maps from WOG, HOTA or Chronicles.

I am sure that the problem has been resolved long time ago and the ticket can be safely closed. But this would be better confirmed by someone who uses Linux.
