Preparing Tar file - FAIL on Windows

[vdonchev]

I am trying to deploy from my home PC (win 10 64) to my development server, but as soon as I execute mage deploy test (where "test" is the key for dev server settings) i get

Starting Pre Deploy tasks: Running [Git] Change Branch (development) ... SKIPPED Running [Deploy] Preparing Tar file ... FAIL

mage.yaml file: https://gist.github.com/vdonchev/9ecc442c0be89aacf59b5171a190d9f4

Enviroment: Win 10 64 PHP 7.3.9 Composer version 1.9.0 Magallanes 4.0.0 bsdtar 3.3.2 git version 2.23.0.windows.1

command mage deploy executet using cmder - latest version

Exact same mage.yaml file executet in HOmestead (virtualmachine) is working OK

Hello, do you have a log file ? Logging is optionnal with mage php but you can enable them :

magephp:
    log_dir: /path/to/my/logs

Maybe it's a problem with the command "tar" on windows ! We may have more clues with logs file.

Hello, It's appearing that the tar command failed. The error is just that a file has been changed/deleted in the process. The only thing that causes an abort is a read/write failure.

Hi, there was never a good support for Windows, however v4.1 has improved some aspects.
