Win10/Cygwin Installation

[WardinT]

Can't install terminus in cygwin on my win10-pc. Composer returns segmentation fault and creates stackdump when executed in terminus subdir of /usr/bin. Afterwards always - irrespective of arguments supplied - returns segmentation fault and creates stackdump until composer is reinstalled.

Stackdump:

Installed php version: 7.0.14 Installed composer version 1.2.4

I can confirm this same exact issue. I rectified it by using a different version of php and terminus

@WardinT @spiderwisp What what is the command you are entering when you get this result?

[WardinT]

I worked along the installation instructions on github. git clone worked, composer install did not, threw the error.

Pantheon Support sent me here from a ticket I created there. They don't have a solution for me. Pardon the long, detailed comment, but I want to really convey in real-world terms the level of exasperation I experience every time I run into a situation requiring Terminus on Windows with Pantheon.

Here’s just the latest thing I’m trying to do and how I got to this point.

I need to create a WordPress plugin, from scratch, that will grab orders from our Walmart store via its API and put them into WooCommerce.

I started with this Smashing Magazine article: https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2016/03/making-a-wordpress-plugin-that-uses-service-apis/

It says I need a PHP environment (I want to use the Pantheon Dev or a multi-dev site), my API provider (Walmart), and recommends I use Composer to manage dependencies as I create the plugin.

Can Composer be run in a Pantheon Dev or multi-dev environment? The answer “yes” is what I’m understanding in the Pantheon Composer documentation. https://pantheon.io/docs/composer/

So then I turn to Pantheon’s documentation to figure out how to get Composer working on my Pantheon Dev (or multi-dev) site.

Using that documentation successfully apparently depends on me using Terminus (see “Initialize Composer” for the commands I’m supposed to run).

I don’t have Terminus installed on Windows 10 Home (I do have 64-bit Anniversary Update build 14393 or later).

So I click on the link to the Terminus installation documentation. https://pantheon.io/docs/terminus/install/

I use Cygwin to install all the PHP modules I can find, including PHP-CURL and, I believe, PHP-CLI though it’s not explicitly shown in Cygwin’s install list. The PHP-CLI website is written in broken English and doesn’t say either way.

Assuming PHP-CLI is also installed, I go back to the try to run the Terminus install command from the command line of Cygwin, like this:

Rob@DESKTOP-2O45UCN ~
$ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pantheon-systems/terminus-installer/master/builds/installer.phar && php installer.phar install

But that just returns the error

curl: (48) An unknown option was passed in to libcurl

So, curl is apparently installed, but what is this mysterious "unknown option" it says is being passed in to libcurl? How do I troubleshoot this? What's the next step after that? The documentation is silent and Pantheon Support has sent me here to this thread to seek help.

And this is where I’m stuck. Not knowing whether my local Cygwin install of PHP, Curl, and CLI is accurately done enough to run this remote Terminus install command.

More detail for Windows Terminus setup, in ALL Pantheon documentation that exists now and will exist in the future, is my number one wishlist item for 2017. I always cringe whenever I find that Pantheon wants me to use Terminus for anything I’m trying to do because that usually means hours and hours of me sifting through a multiplicity of steps just to get a working environment. I've never been successful doing so and I can never easily reproduce these steps from machine to machine for some reason.

It would be really nice to have a resolution to this problem.

Fixed. Reinstalled all the Cygwin packages, namely:

• php-curl
• php-mbstring
• php-xml
• php-gd

Then ran the terminus install command and then terminus -v to test it in the Cygwin prompt.

Who knows if it'll work the next time, but it did this time!

Now if Kalabox would just work on Windows 10 Home, I'd be all set.
