im on windows run command composer create-project acquia/lightning-project MY_PROJECT drupal 8.8.1

how do i get around this ?

[phenaproxima]

I gave this a shot on my machine (macOS 10.15, git 2.20.1), and did not run into this. Here's the output I got when drupal/core was installed:

Do you have any more output you can send? Maybe try running composer create-project with the -vvv flag?

Thanks, that's helpful. It looks like the error is that you do not have the "patch" program installed, or in your PATH:

patch "-p2" --no-backup-if-mismatch -d "docroot/core" < "C:\Users\ADMINI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\1/5e270c8 aabf39.patch" Executing command (CWD): patch "-p2" --no-backup-if-mismatch -d "docroot/core" < "C:\Users\ADMINI~1\App Data\Local\Temp\1/5e270c8aabf39.patch" 'patch' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

If you correct this (you should be able to run patch --version at the command line), I think you will have a different outcome.

[phenaproxima]

patch, for the record, is part of the patchutils suite, which is a GNU package. I know it has been ported to Windows, but I'm not a Windows user so I'm not sure what a reliable installer for it would be. If you're using Cygwin or the Linux subsystem for Windows 10, I believe either of these would include patch. Or at the very least, they would provide the appropriate infrastructure to install it.

[gurusonwheels]

downloaded patch from https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuwin32/files/patch/2.5.9-7/patch-2.5.9-7-setup.exe/download?use_mirror=ayera&download=

added to path

run again

got very different results with -vvv but same otherwise

Hmmm, that's unfortunate. Maybe these patches can only be applied with git apply. So we have two options here:

1) Ensure that git is installed, and in your PATH (testable with git --version). I believe, if it's installed, cweagans/composer-patches -- the thing that actually does the patching -- will use it instead of patch. 2) I could reformulate a new version of the broken patch that doesn't have the header, and then you could apply it to your project specifically with patches-ignore (see https://github.com/cweagans/composer-patches#ignoring-patches for more info about that).

[gurusonwheels]

git --version that returns git version 2.25.0.windows.

i notice the paths above look strange with a mixture or forward and backslashes ... could that be the problem . since your script is maybe formatted for linux/unix

C:\Users\ADMINI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\1/5e27183d71915.patch

not a programmer so im trying my best to follow you .

[gurusonwheels]

also on the patch for windows site it says

On MS-Windows, the patchfile must be a text file, i.e. CR-LF must be used as line endings. A file with LF may give the error: "Assertion failed, hunk, file patch.c, line 343," unless the option '--binary' is given.

[phenaproxima]

You're doing an admirable job :)

I'm not sure the paths are the problem, although it's certainly possible; I would imagine that, on Windows, git knows to convert forward slashes to backslahes when trying to resolve patch targets.

I do see an interesting thing on my end; although running composer create-project applies the patch without complaint, it fails when I try to apply the patch to Drupal core directly. So maybe the patch needs to be rerolled. I will need to investigate a little further!

[gurusonwheels]

ok

seems according to this doc windows and git do have problems with forward and backslashes ...

https://brendanforster.com/notes/fixing-invalid-git-paths-on-windows/ maybe im reading into it too much . ill let you look into it ..

thanks for your help

[gurusonwheels]

old issue seems ..
https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/issues/637

are there a way to add this --binary to the patch calls for windows to see if this is the problem .

[gurusonwheels]

any progress?

[phenaproxima]

None yet, but I unfortunately don't have a ton of time to devote to this. I don't think there is a way to use --binary, at least not directly; that might be a thing that should be added to cweagans/composer-patches.

[phenaproxima]

What I'm seeing here is that the patch does not apply to Drupal core 8.8.x or 8.8.1 (it needs to be rerolled). Yet, our CI builds are saying that the patch does apply against those versions. I'm calling in some help to see why this discrepancy exists.

[phenaproxima]

It's still not clear what's going on, but an interesting thing I'm seeing is that patch is being invoked with the -p1 option, and it seems to be unable to find the file to patch. Maybe try the following:

composer create-project acquia/lightning-project --no-install myproject
cd myproject

Then, merge the following into the composer.json file:

"extra": {
  "patchLevel": {
      "drupal/core": "-p2"
    }
  }
}

And then run composer install -vvv. What effect does that have?

We don't officially support Windows, which is why you're running into that. Just go ahead and delete those files manually.

I'm not sure how Composer didn't reject the file out of hand; that doesn't look like valid JSON to me. It should be like so:

"extra": {
  "patchLevel": {
    "drupal/core": "-p2"
  }
}

There is a big difference between square brackets ([]) and curly braces ({}) in JSON; for this piece of info, you need to use curly braces.

You have "extra", then "extra" again, nested within it. There should only be one "extra".

[phenaproxima]

You also need a comma after that curly brace, just before the composer-exit-on-patch-failure thing.

[phenaproxima]

If this doesn't work, by the way, I'm afraid I will be at an impasse here. We can maybe arrange a time to hack on this over a phone call, if you're still stuck; writing JSON in comment ping-pong is pretty hard. :)

I'm sorry...I don't know why that's happening. It's all kinda mysterious for me too.

That said, I don't think I can keep providing support in this thread; it's going on a bit too long and the problem seems to be system-specific, as I have not had this complaint from others (not yet, anyway).

Should we discuss over a Zoom or something else that can do a screen share? I'm on Drupal Slack as phenaproxima; please find me in the #lightning channel if you still want to keep working on this. I think it will be a more efficient way of debugging the problem.
