Thanks for the report. Do you have a minimal Dockerfile which can reproduce this issue?

javier-cornejo commented 5 years ago

Sure, Fedora release 30 (Thirty) Docker version 18.09.7, build 2d0083d

FROM alpine:3.10.1

RUN apk add nodejs npm && \
    npm install --global purescript
javier-cornejo commented 5 years ago

This one shows more errors at docker build time

FROM alpine:3.10.1

RUN apk add nodejs npm && \
    npm install --global --ignore-scripts purescript && \
    node /usr/lib/node_modules/purescript/node_modules/purescript-installer/index.js

I'm affected by this issue as well on:

hdgarrood commented 5 years ago

@marijnz0r that looks like a different issue to me, it seems you're missing the libtinfo / ncurses library. See the note in https://github.com/purescript/purescript/blob/master/INSTALL.md#the-curses-library

marijnz0r commented 5 years ago

@hdgarrood thanks for the quick response, it seems it might have to do something with a correct version of libtinfo, check out this issue: https://github.com/spacchetti/spago/issues/104 Do you have an idea how to fix this?

hdgarrood commented 5 years ago

Yes, you need to install the ncurses/libtinfo library, and/or build from source so that GHC can select the appropriate version.

marijnz0r commented 5 years ago

The weird thing is, I do have them installed:

locate libtinfo.so
/snap/core/7713/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5
/snap/core/7713/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5.9
/snap/core/7917/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5
/snap/core/7917/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5.9
/snap/core18/1192/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5
/snap/core18/1192/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5.9
/snap/core18/1223/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5
/snap/core18/1223/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5.9
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.6
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.6.1

How do I point the purescript install script to the correct libtinfo.so.5?

marijnz0r commented 5 years ago

This apparently fixed it for me:

sudo ln -s /snap/core/7917/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.5

I hope it helps someone.

You can use LD_LIBRARY_PATH, or preferably put the library in one of the directories listed in /etc/ld.so.conf. See http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Program-Library-HOWTO/shared-libraries.html

hdgarrood commented 4 years ago

I've dug into this a bit and I think it might be to do with alpine being based on musl rather than glibc or some other difference in how the system is set up. After running those commands, we get an error along the lines of spawn /purs ENOENT, which would suggest that the problem is that the file /purs does not exist. In fact the file does exist, which leads me to believe that we are in a similar situation to this person: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5234088/execve-file-not-found-when-stracing-the-very-same-file, and the ENOENT really means that the dynamic loader for the binary doesn't exist. Indeed, ldd /purs prints /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 as the first line of the output, but no such file that exists in the container. I think you may need to build the compiler from source.

hdgarrood commented 4 years ago

The issues reported here are covered by #22 and #24, so I'm going to close this. Thanks for the report!

wclr commented 3 years ago

@hdgarrood (Form the discussion) it is not clear what to do if one wants to install purs on alpine and encounters the error?

Should this be added to https://github.com/purescript/purescript/blob/master/INSTALL.md ?

hdgarrood commented 3 years ago

You’ll need to build the compiler yourself from source on alpine, as all of the prebuilt binaries rely on glibc. We do have instructions there for building from source already, but I don’t think we have the bandwidth to maintain instructions for alpine specifically.
