Chocolatey 'install' failure

[PeterDeKeer]

Windows 8. Downloaded Chocolatey as admin, in same screen I try to "cinst Atom" (cmd ver Microsoft Windows [Version 6.3.9600])

Chocolatey (v0.9.8.25) is installing 'Atom' and dependencies. By installing you accept the license for 'Atom' and each dependency you are installing.

Atom v0.113.0

@ferventcoder just wanted to cc you here in case there was something obvious about this error, thanks for any insight you may be able to add.

[ferventcoder]

Always return -debug output, otherwise it's hard to see what went wrong.

[kevinsawicki]

@ferventcoder thanks, is there any example somewhere that does that?

[kevinsawicki]

14 which has very similar error output reported things working after restarting, @PeterDeKeer would it be possible for you to try that?

[PeterDeKeer]

Closed my Admin cmd window, opened another Admin cmd window and...

cinst Atom SUCCES!!!

So installing chocolatey AND Atom in one move is not working.

Do you want me to test something more?

[kevinsawicki]

Nope, thanks, I'm going to update the instructions.

[PeterDeKeer]

Thanks for the time! And great package!

[kevinsawicki]

@ferventcoder Thanks again for the -debug tip :+1:

[bradgearon]

Depending on how you elevate and execute the chocolatey install and then install atom, I'm thinking your path variable might not be updated. If I remember correctly chocolatey handles this when you install but perhaps its a bug. I'll see if I can reproduce and debug either way so other users don't have this problem.

[bradgearon]

Oh actually in the first comment I see you ran chocolatey install as admin. I think that might actually be the culprit. You should install chocolatey as a normal user.

[ferventcoder]

It's supposed to work okay. But here's something you can do after installing chocolatey:

from cmd.exe:

RefreshEnv

No powershell equivalent.

[ferventcoder]

@bradgearon If you install as an admin, you get the machine level system path now. It's more beneficial to install chocolatey as an admin.

[bradgearon]

@ferventcoder oh OK so do install as admin thank you.

[ferventcoder]

Get-ChocolateyUnzip... that is the culprit... It was fixed, now it's broken again :( - I think we just need a call in there to ensure that we can get to 7za

@ferventcoder you rock! :+1:

I am trying to update a software and I cant. I generated the debug output. I want to use the GUI.
