Pkg Fails to clone git repository on Arch related distros (Solved) #1013

xtalax · 2019-01-24T15:17:15Z

I have just installed a new version of linux (Manjaro) and am trying to get julia up and running again.
When using Pkg to install, I am hit with the following error:

Cloning default registries into /home/tharsis/.julia/registries

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have very much enjoyed learning and programming Julia, and am excited to get back to it :)

EDIT: I had suspected that this was an issue with registries, but I now believe it to be a problem with julia setting up the default environment on arch related distros

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

xtalax · 2019-01-25T14:59:45Z

I was able to fix the problem by creating the ~/.julia/environments/v1.0/ directory, and touching Project.toml and Manifest.toml within, and creating ~/.julia/registries/.

Does anyone know where in the source code julia attempts to create these directories?

fredrikekre · 2019-01-25T15:12:42Z

That issue should have been fixed by JuliaLang/julia#30224 which is included in Julia 1.0.3. What Julia version are you on?

xtalax · 2019-01-26T17:35:28Z

I was attempting to use Julia 1.1.0

xtalax · 2019-01-31T17:28:39Z

I have since recieved the exact same error when trying to clone from a github url.

Are you using the official binaries?

xtalax · 2019-02-03T17:07:37Z

Yes, I am using the v1.1.0 binaries downloaded from https://julialang.org/downloads/.

StefanKarpinski · 2019-02-04T14:55:53Z

Are you behind a firewall by any chance?

ayush-1506 · 2019-05-09T16:34:11Z

I'm facing the same error every time I try to ]dev packagename. I'm on Julia 1.1.0. Is there an update on this?

ElegantCreationism · 2019-08-12T09:29:20Z

try removing the s from "https://" and use (v1.1) pkg> add http://github.com/BenLauwens/ThinkJulia.jl.git

worked for me

valeriupredoi · 2019-08-19T15:45:41Z

hey guys, just had this issue and, since I am behind an odd firewall that allows me to git clone I just shoved the registry in where it's supposed to begit clone https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General.git ~/.julia/registries/General and then voila, it updated it correctly and installed my packages 🍺

KristofferC · 2019-09-09T20:10:43Z

Im gonna close this since the title says solved. Feel free to open new issues.

hsteinhaus · 2019-12-18T09:49:53Z

I am not behind an odd firewall - just an ordinary squid proxy between my network and the Internet.I run into exactly the same troubles. Manually cloning JuliaRegistries/General.git does the trick for me - all following git operations succeed using the proxy from HTTPS_PROXY env variable.

In my perception, there is clearly a bug in the code that tries to clone the General repo - please fix.

longqian95 · 2020-01-08T03:16:38Z

I have the same issue. It seems just because of the proxy. If I use proxy, then this error will appear. Because I behind firewall, I have to close proxy first to pass the step for cloning JuliaRegistries/General.git then enable proxy again to pass other steps. Therefore I also think this is a bug and this issue is not solved.

StefanKarpinski · 2020-01-08T15:12:42Z

There's a known bug in libgit2 where it is sensitive to a trailing slash in the proxy prefix. What are your proxy values set to?

longqian95 · 2020-01-17T03:56:07Z

Thank you so much for your kind help. This issue has annoy me many times. It is wired to append a trailing slash. But anyway it works fine now. Hope libgit2 will fix it in the next version.

StefanKarpinski · 2020-01-17T14:07:07Z

I believe they had a bugfix in the works. Agree that it's a very annoying bug.

mvarela · 2020-04-08T06:03:01Z

This seems to still be present in 1.4 (under Manjaro), I'm getting the same error. The workaround suggested does work.

Oseenix · 2020-07-27T13:21:17Z

@KristofferC It has a problem when git behind a proxy. After I cancel the proxy setting in .gitconfig, it can update then. My version is 1.4.2.
When I clone through the proxy manually, I can download the resource, so the proxy works properly.

[http]
    #proxy = socks5://127.0.0.1:1086  
[https]
    #proxy = socks5://127.0.0.1:1086

Getting the same error when using ] dev SomePackage in julia 1.6, the environment and ~/.julia/registries already exist
