Which version of the BG2 Fixpack are you using?
I vaguely remember some issues related to Solaufein in a previous version.

Well, indeed, I found a bug corrected byf BG2 Fixpack that looks like the problem I encounter: http://www.gibberlin...k/docs_beta.php

Incapacitated Solaufein Breaks Ust Natha Quests

In the initial mission with Solaufein, you are tasked with rescuing Phaere. If Solaufein is incapacitated during the fight, Phaere's post-rescue dialogue will break when she tries to pass it off to Solaufein. Worse, this will cause the necessary variables to not be set correctly with no way of continuing the Ust Natha quests. Phaere will now check Solaufein to make sure he's not incapacitated and, if necessary, cast Dispel Magic on him.

However, the problem I encounter occurs every time I try this quest (even if Solaufein is not Incapacited).

So, I found a dirty, ugly hack that appears to get around this.

In shadowkeeper, I set the following variables:

udDrowPlot=5 (had to create)
SolaufeinJob=4

I then talked to Sola, who initiated the "meet me back in the city" dialog, and from there the game seems to be flowing correctly.

I suspect the problem is deeper that just fixing those two variables, and I don't mind doing some detective work if someone will point me in the direction of how, but since this is otherwise a showstopper sort of bug, I thought I'd post my workaround.

Did you end up solving this? I have the same problem, and I'd really like to continue...

I have never found a solution to this problem. I have stopped the game there.

Thank you for your trick even if I hope I won't need it

MantraSong, do you have the BG2 Fixpack beta component installed, too?

Looks like that the problem is described here, too:

And the gamer has not the BG2 Fixpack beta component installed.

Looks like I do. From my weidu.log

~BG2FIXPACK/SETUP-BG2FIXPACK.TP2~ #0 #3 // BETA Core Fixes (please check the readme!): v8 BWP Ascension patch

I'm not sure that's the same problem. That looks like it refers to getting the eggs from Sola, this occurred out in the main underdark after I had defeated all the illithids and company.

Well, in my new installation (weidu.log is there), I did not encountered this problem.
But, i have less mods now. I also have the BWP Fixpack that i didn't have the first time (installation by hand).
