Hi, this is an uncritical bug (caused by vagrant/scotchox settings) that does not abort the installation. See my answer in https://github.com/flurinduerst/WPDistillery/issues/57#issuecomment-340831944. (Only the first code-snippet is relevant in this case).

Thanks for pointing this out anyway :)

@dcolumbus After getting these errors were you still able to get the site to run (i.e. uncritical as flurnduerst says)? I had the exact same issue last night, and was never able to get the site to run.

dcolumbus commented 6 years ago

@wondergiant The last time I went through this, I wasn’t able to get the site to run properly. Ironically this time I was able to get it to run, but it was so sluggish it was basically unusable.

wondergiant commented 6 years ago

@dcolumbus Glad I am not the only one. I made sure to update wp-cli, vagrant, vagrantbox. Completely wiped (vagrant destroy) and fired it up multiple times with no luck. I'll report back if I ever find a solution to this "noncritical" critical bug.

dcolumbus commented 6 years ago

@wondergiant Yeah, I feel like there shouldn’t be any warnings or failures in this build process... plus, the fact that the issue is with a cache directory makes me suspect that’s why my machine is running so slow.

If you're installation doesn't work or is aborting, this error-message is not the cause of it for certain. I would not lable a breaking bug with "noncritical" if it werent. By the way: Updating your local wp-cli doesn't affect the WPDistillery-setup as WP-CLI is run on the vagrantbox and will update itself by WPDistillery.

@dcolumbus

Yeah, I feel like there shouldn’t be any warnings or failures in this build process... plus, the fact that the issue is with a cache directory makes me suspect that’s why my machine is running so slow.

The cache error comes from WP-CLI itself and does not affect the speed of your machine in any way. Note: I can only access or modify whatever scotchbox gives me, so there are some limitations to what WPDistillery can do, and where it can't fix issues regarding scotchbox.

I'm doing all this in my free-time, didn't earn one cent with WPDistillery and I'm happy to help if there are any problems. But please make sure to be as constructive as possible. Thanks.
