Could not find the alias @self #2195

Closed ElijahLynn closed 5 years ago

ElijahLynn commented 8 years ago

8.1.2

While in a multisite directory with the settings.php for that site, I run drush site-aliases and a @self is listed. If I then do a drush site-aliases @self I get some output with a root and URI (name of sites/sitename folder). If I then do a any operation on @self such as drush @self status I get a Could not find the alias @self.

Hi!

Am seeing this too on Drush Version 7.3.0. I set result-file option for sql-dump in the sites alias file.

Then from the webroot I run the following commands:

drush --debug @self sql-dump Outputs the @sitealias info drush --debug @sitealias sql-dump Exact same output as above drush --debug sql-dump Results in the database dump being sent to the screen drush --debug @meosd7site.dev sql-dump Successful dump to the defined result-file drush --debug @self sql-dump Gives the Error Could not find the alias @self

So it appears that the drush sa command is able to get the site alias @self but drush sql-dump cannot. I guess the question is why?

God Bless! Frederick

Also seeing this with drush 8.1.5.

$ drush sa | grep @self

I've got this issue as well with Drush 8.1.8. Did anyone find out why this was happening? Any related issues?

dman-coders commented 7 years ago

Drush Version : 8.1.12 Same sort of issue as reported.

I'm using a DrupalVM, and operating on a Drupal7 site.

From gregs answer at https://drupal.stackexchange.com/a/109144/4266

In order to use the @self alias, Drush must be able to detect and bootstrap your Drupal site

I finally got the clue. I had an empty (not yet installed) site, with an empty database provided in settings.php. I was trying to 

drush sql-sync @project.prod @self

to do a clean start, BUT although @self was present (it showed up in site-alias) but not bootstrapping, the sql-sync command failed with that message.

My work-around for kicking off a sql-sync into an empty site shell is now to use the alternative site-alias syntax like so:

drush sql-sync @project.prod /var/www/project/docroot#default
petertornstrand commented 6 years ago

I'm having a similar issue as well. Using the alternative syntax described by @dman-coders did not help me though.

My project is setup using drupal-composer so the paths are /var/www (project root) and /var/www/web (drupal root).

Drush Launcher Version: 0.3.1 Drush Version : 8.1.13

Here is the output from drush sql-sync @website.prod /var/www/web#default --debug

looks like are using the drush launcher but not a site local drush? Make sure you use both of those programs on both sides of the sql-sync.

fubarhouse commented 6 years ago

In trying to identify how to use the current site as an argument for the indefinite future - as I'm wondering how I can future-proof what I'm doing, I came along this.

I'm not using Drush Launcher, nor have I yet, and I'm able to produce unexpected results...

The image may help diagnose this one.

The @self alias is created once Drush figures out which site you'd like to bootstrap. In the case of drush @self status, that alias that tells Drush which site you'd like to bootstrap, so at the point in time when Drush reads it, @self does not exist yet.

This would be possible to fix by writing a temporary @self alias at the appropriate place in the bootstrap. If anyone wanted to take that on, it should be done in Drush 9 first. Note that the Drush 8 and Drush 9 bootstraps are substantially different. The Drush 9 bootstrap is easier to fiddle with. Changing the Drush 8 bootstrap is prone to side effects.

Looks to not exist in 9.3.0, maybe this was fixed?

greg-1-anderson commented 5 years ago

Yep, this works in Drush 9.
