Miniconda install fails behind firewall. (Conda install launched by IJulia)

elalaouifaris commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I have an issue at work where we have a firewall. When I add IJulia, launch jupyterlab and say yes to the Conda install, I have the followig error:

julia> IJulia.jupyterlab()
install Jupyter via Conda, y/n? [y]: y

Installing manually minicoda in the right location in .julia folder works. Is there a way to specify firewall information like what is done with .condarc?

Thanks! Faris

miniconda is now at https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Windows-x86_64.exe. What is the right location in .julia folder?

xanfus commented 3 years ago

There are lines at Conda package in file Conda.jl:

"Get the miniconda installer URL."
function _installer_url()
    res = "https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda$(MINICONDA_VERSION)-latest-"
    if Sys.isapple()

I just had to go up the stacktrace. I will edit the line and proceed.

Ok. Now there are security issues. "next InitializeSecurityContext failed: Unknown error (0x80092012)". That's another issue.

Download it manually and comment downloading function (at Conda.jl of Conda package):

"Install miniconda if it hasn't been installed yet; _install_conda(true) installs Conda even if it has already been installed."
function _install_conda(env::Environment, force::Bool=false)
    if force || !isfile(Conda.conda)
        @info("Downloading miniconda installer ...")
        if Sys.isunix()
            installer = joinpath(PREFIX, "installer.sh")
        end
        if Sys.iswindows()
            installer = joinpath(PREFIX, "installer.exe")
        end
        mkpath(PREFIX)
        # download(_installer_url(), installer)

This can be remediated if https://github.com/JuliaPy/Conda.jl/pull/197 is merged.
