No such file or directory.

After installing ani-cli and all the dependencies on my Windows 11 machine using scoop, I get this error: C:\Users\dhruv>ani-cli /bin/bash: C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\ani-cli\current\ani-cli: No such file or directory

I have reinstalled ani-cli many times and also removed all the scoop files and installed that again.

When I run ani-cli on powershell, i get this error: PowerShell 7.4.2 PS C:\Users\dhruv> ani-cli /bin/bash: C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\ani-cli\current\ani-cli: No such file or directory PS C:\Users\dhruv>

When I run ani-cli on git bash: dhruv@DhruvSinha MINGW64 ~ $ ani-cli Checking dependencies... Search anime: naruto

but it gets stuck here no matter what you enter in the search anime prompt

Only way i got it to work is by going in the scoop shims folder and manually running the ani-cli Windows Command Script

this is what is see in C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\ani-cli\current:

1. In powershell or cmd, what happens when you run ani-cli.cmd?
2. In git bash, what do you mean by stuck? Can you share a screenshot of what happens after you type naruto Enter?
3. In git bash, what is the output of curl --version?

Thanks for the reply

1.

2. I have pressed enter several times in the git bash above... waiting for a while does not resolve anything either..

It looks like there are two problems, one in powershell and one in git bash.

1. Could you paste your scoop/shims/ani-cli.cmd file here? Open it with notepad and paste the contents here.

2. If the ani-cli.cmd file's second like begins with @bash, it might be using wsl. You need to make it use Git's bash. Replace @bash with: @"C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\git\current\bin\bash.exe" (if you installed git with scoop) or @"C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe" (if you installed git manually).

3. Check if the fix in (2) works in powershell.

4. I don't know what's going on with the git bash problem. Could it be a readline problem? In Git Bash, could you try running read -r query, then enter "naruto Enter", then print the query variable.

Also, make sure git for windows is up to date.

ani-cli.cmd: @ rem C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\ani-cli\current\ani-cli @ bash "C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\ani-cli\current\ani-cli" %*

i added the space after the "@" because it was tagging people

After replacing: @ rem C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\ani-cli\current\ani-cli @"C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\git\current\bin\bash.exe" "C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\ani-cli\current\ani-cli" %*

It is working in powershell now!!

I don't need it to work in git bash anymore but just for the sake of understanding the problem:

Thank you for your help... I am cool with closing this issue unless you want to debug the bash problem....

[ykhan21]

It works when you run ani-cli in powershell, right? You shouldn't need to add the .cmd every time. Also, please keep ani-cli up to date with ani-cli -U instead of scoop update ani-cli until the scoop install script for ani-cli is fixed here.

(Just to note, others on Windows 11 have had trouble with wsl hijacking the script.)

Can you try updating ani-cli in powershell and see if it works in git bash?

[DhruvSinha2003]

It does work with just ani-cli, I am not using ani-cli.cmd

:(

[ykhan21]

Did you edit the ani-cli script? It should work. It works for me on Win11 + pwsh. Can you paste the .rej reject file in C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\ani-cli\current\?

Try reinstalling ani-cli:

1. scoop uninstall ani-cli
2. scoop install ani-cli.
3. Replace @bash with @"C:\Users\dhruv\scoop\apps\git\current\bin\bash.exe" in the ani-cli.cmd file.
4. Update ani-cli: ani-cli -U.
