Cannot build squirrel windows installer from linux, on 5.2.3 or beta. #669

Closed tnishimura closed 5 years ago

tnishimura commented 5 years ago

(excuse me for not following template completely, I have two test cases. hopefully below makes sense. Also, I do not know where config.forge is)

Problem

I get weird nuget errors when I try to run make on linux, both for the beta and npm versions (5.2.3): System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type 'NuGet.OptimizedZipPackage' from assembly 'NuGet, Version=2.8.50926.602, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.

Expectation

According to the beta's documentation here, it seems I should be able to make windows packages from linux as long as I have mono and wine installed.

My setup

I am on ubuntu 18.04. wine, mono, node, npm versions are below:

mono --version
Mono JIT compiler version 4.6.2 (Debian 4.6.2.7+dfsg-1ubuntu1)
Copyright (C) 2002-2014 Novell, Inc, Xamarin Inc and Contributors. www.mono-project.com
    TLS:           __thread
    SIGSEGV:       altstack
    Notifications: epoll
    Architecture:  amd64
    Disabled:      none
    Misc:          softdebug 
    LLVM:          supported, not enabled.
    GC:            sgen

wine --version
wine-3.0 (Ubuntu 3.0-1ubuntu1)

node --version
v8.11.3

npm --version 
6.5.0

With the Beta version

I installed the beta as per the doc and ran the make command under debug mode:

npm install -g @electron-forge/cli 
npx @electron-forge/cli@6.0.0-beta.21 init my-app
cd my-app

export DEBUG=electron-forge:*,electron-windows-installer:*
npx electron-forge make --platform=win32

Beta - error message

This outputs:

I also tried with the non-beta (5.2.3) version of electron-forge, and get essentially the same error::

$ electron-forge init ef2

Maybe related issue:

malept commented 5 years ago

It doesn't seem like this is an Electron Forge specific bug, but rather one with electron-winstaller.

Alessandro100 commented 1 year ago

I got this exact error and what ended up fixing it was installing extra packages ontop of wine and mono sudo apt install nuget sudo apt install mono-xsp4 sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine32
