ConEmu plus Vagrant Bug

[naskoff]

HI there, after update ConEmu in a few days, vagrant stop working. When i type vagrant up i get this error from vagrant

The provider 'virtualbox' that was requested to back the machine 'default' is reporting that it isn't usable on this system. The reason is shown below: Vagrant detected that VirtualBox appears installed on your system, but calls to detect the version are returning empty. This is often indicative of installation issues with VirtualBox. Please verify that VirtualBox is properly installed. As a final verification, please run the following command manually and verify a version is outputted: C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe --version

in another console application (cmd, console2 i don't have any problem).

(With this version ConEmuSetup.150728, i don't have problem too, but with new version :()

Windows: 7 Vagrant: 1.7.4 ConEmu: ConEmu Alpha, Installer (32-bit, 64-bit) - 4.33 MB | version: 150913

[Maximus5]

Latest preview build is 150813c. Check it.

[naskoff]

Yes, i check latest stable version in settings, and have problem with her :) Now, i redownload preview version, and change setting only for preview version and problem disappear.

[Maximus5]

There is no stable version at all, so you aren't able to test it. I believe you haven't mentioned as stable version released in 2012 year.

[naskoff]

I say stable, cause in settings checkbox was there :) But, nevermind, with preview version (and change settings of course), problem disappear. Sorry! :)

[Maximus5]

If it is reproduced in alpha, the issue closing is premature.

[naskoff]

Uninstall and install ConEmu Alpha, Installer (32-bit, 64-bit) - 4.33 MB | version: 150913 from , and bug still exists.

[MartinSGill]

I'm seeing the same issue. It's not specifically related to vagrant.

I have a powershell script that calls git.exe and tries to process the output. When it's run in ConEmu the output (STDOUT) seems to be lost, i.e. null. This is probably how vagrant is testing the VirtualBox version. Since it cannot get output, it thinks virtualbox isn't working properly.

Running the identical script in cmd.exe / powershell.exe it works as expected.

What's even more confusing is that I have identical versions of ConEmu (i have a portable install in dropbox) and this issue exists on my work Windows 7 machine, but not on my home Win 10 machine.

I've also seen this issue on a colleague's machine as well.

edit: my colleague is running windows 8.1

[Maximus5]

So, why do not to post here exact steps to reproduce?

[MartinSGill]

Because my steps are identical to those in the first post.

Another way to reproduce the error is to install the Posh-Git powershell module and then import it

PS> Import-Module Posh-Git
WARNING: posh-git requires Git 1.7.2 or better. You are using .

the relevant script is:

$requiredVersion = [Version]'1.7.2'
if ((git --version 2> $null) -match '(?<ver>\d+(?:\.\d+)+)') {
    $version = [Version]$Matches['ver']
}
if ($version -lt $requiredVersion) {
    Write-Warning "posh-git requires Git $requiredVersion or better. You have $version."
    $false
} else {
    $true
}

It should be seeing 2.5.0.windows.1 but sees nothing. $version is never set.

If I execute the identical commands in a normal cmd or powershell window you don't see the warning message.

[Maximus5]

@MartinSGill Your script is working fine on my test Win 7.0 PC

It is slightly modified to print more info

$requiredVersion = [Version]'1.7.2'
Write-Host "%PATH% is $($env:PATH)"
if ((git --version 2> $null) -match '(?<ver>\d+(?:\.\d+)+)') {
    $version = [Version]$Matches['ver']
}
if ($version -lt $requiredVersion) {
    Write-Warning "posh-git requires Git $requiredVersion or better. You have $version."
    & git --version
    $false
} else {
    Write-Host "Git version detected: $version."
    $true
}

Show your screenshot?

[MartinSGill]

I upgraded to the same version of Git as you, just in case, then tried again:

Both are running as Admin, but I don't think that makes a difference.

I tried simplifying things a bit more, ConEmu vs Standard Powershell. The final command fails in ConEmu, but not in cmd.exe.

[MartinSGill]

Also just noticed you are running x86, and I'm running AMD64.

[Maximus5]

What is about just this command output?

(git --version 2> $null)

[MartinSGill]

Also doesn't work

[MartinSGill]

(git --version)

works. So perhaps it related to the redirect

edit:

(git --version > c:\temp\text)

above works, so maybe something to do with STDERR stream redirects.

[Maximus5]

I need some debug logs from you...

• Settings\Debug, Radio Shell
• run (git --version), Save log as new file, Reset
• run (git --version 2> $null), Save log as new file, Reset
• Upload these two logs to DropBox or create gists

[MartinSGill]

[Maximus5]

How about latest preview build 150813c?

[Maximus5]

And what if you run

ConEmu -basic -cmd powershell -noprofile

and than

(git --version 2> $null)

[MartinSGill]

AMD64

x86

Looks like it was introduced in 15-09-10:

I don't think it's powershell related, as the vagrant issue happens in cmd.exe (in ConEmu) as well. Also, my colleague's $PSVersionTable is different, but has the same issue:

I need to reproduce the problem on my side for experiments... But I've failed to do that yet, so I'm looking for specific conditions.

Also, if you can find exact commit which breaks proper operation, it may help too.

[erichiller]

I was having an issue where vim --help displayed then disappeared, after screwing around with scripts and various things for hours. I just unchecked ComEmuHk, fixed everything. Seems like that should break things, but so far, it has been good across the board, Powershell, cmd both. Windows 10 machine. Try that maybe just to help narrow down some variabes maybe?

[Maximus5]

@variab1e Don't mix issues, vim is another one.

How to install PowerShell 5.0 on Windows 7???

[MartinSGill]

PowerShell 5.0: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48729 It says "preview" but it's basically the same version as installed on Win10. I suspect MS will officially release it with Server 2016.

I'm spending a bit of time creating a build locally to see if I can find the actual commit. Hopefully there weren't too many between 150910 and 150908.

[erichiller]

I'll just leave it disabled system wide for now. I haven't noticed any issues by leaving it disabled.

[MartinSGill]

Finally got to try out git bisect.

This is the result:

eaaf96bc2a7d1451265a28162d6e9d0c7fa69d9d is the first bad commit

[MartinSGill]

As a side note, I was getting build errors, but they didn't impact the test though:

2>     Creating library ..\..\Release\ConEmu\ExtendedConsole64.lib and object ..\..\Release\ConEmu\ExtendedConsole64.exp

2>..\..\Release\ConEmu\ExtendedConsole64.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 10 unresolved externals

Only happens in release. Looks like the FAR project. Since I don't use FAR that would explain the lack of impact.

[Maximus5]

What can I say. That's pity. So, you will get either crash or powershell piping problems. The crash (stack overflow) in gh-272 occurred inside NVIDIA libraries, so most probably it's not a ConEmu problem.

[MartinSGill]

It's not just powershell, it's a bit more generic than that. Vagrant is written in ruby, and you get the issue mentioned in the initial comment in a CMD shell.

[Maximus5]

How about build 151006?

[MartinSGill]

Things appear to be working properly with 151006. I've also had an NVidia driver update.

[erichiller]

I have no errors thus far! Looks great. Thanks for the work again !

[rajatksud]

Looks good now
