I am having this problem trying to install uru from package uru.0.7.7.nupkg found at https://bitbucket.org/jonforums/uru/wiki/Downloads

ferventcoder commented 9 years ago

@vbsql7 can you post the gist? It could be related to the package, but it may be a bug in choco.

ghost commented 9 years ago

I downloaded the nupkg file from here and tried to install it locally using choco install 'package name' and got the error: 'Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Path' because it is an empty string' Chocolatey 'install' failure. This is on Windows 7 64 bit.

@vbsql7 can you confirm what version of Chocolatey you are using? I have just done the following, using 0.9.8.28

ferventcoder commented 9 years ago

This could be the issue of just installing chocolatey and not having that variable set.

Agreed, I had assumed that based on the title of this bug that closing and re-opening the shell after a fresh install of Chocolatey had been ruled out by @vbsql7. I had thought it might be an error in the package itself, but after attempting the install on a clean VM myself, that didn't seem to be the case.

Thanks, guys. I tried again with a fresh install of Chocolaty and the installation of uru seemed to run without errors this time. The first time above was in the middle of a day when I was trying to install and learn 7 different things, so who knows what my problem was. :)

Glad to hear you got it working! :smile_cat:
