error adding package to Julia 1.1

[ezgikurt]

Hi, I just installed a fresh version of Julia 1.1 (finally updating from 0.6.4) and trying to add my mainly used packages to it (which includes PlotlyJS which requires ORCA to save).

I run into the following error which I think is related to the conda dependency. I can't figure out what I need to do:

[AlexYoooooo]

Ran into same issue when ran on ubuntu 14.03, however my friend with a windows machine seems fine :p

[sglyon]

Hmm, perhaps something got a bit funky in the package directories.

Would you be open to experimenting a bit and deleting the whole directory for Julia 1.1 packages and trying again?

[ezgikurt]

Allright so I've deleted the packages directory first (to no avail). Then I deleted everything related to v1.1, uninstalled and installed again. Still there is the same error saying that this is not a conda environment.

│ DirectoryNotACondaEnvironmentError: The target directory exists, but it is not a conda environment.

So I've tried doing what it says and used the anaconda prompt and turned the current directory into a conda directory using the following command:

(base) C:\Users\ezgik> conda create --prefix C:\Users\ezgik\.julia\packages\ORCA\ZfBvW\deps

WARNING: A directory already exists at the target location 'C:\Users\ezgik\.julia\packages\ORCA\ZfBvW\deps'
but it is not a conda environment.

(base) C:\Users\ezgik>conda activate

Then I've gone ahead and added ORCA. Builds okay now. However not the issue is in precompilation:

Ran into the same problem on Ubuntu 18.04, and just did the conda bit in the way ezgikurt did. That worked for me, outside of compat generating warnings. But I've been getting those warnings quite a bit in other packages too.

[sglyon]

It sounds like this might be an issue with Conda.jl.. maybe we should open an issue over there?

[stevengj]

Using env = @__DIR__ is problematic.

• Anaconda doesn't seem to like using an existing non-empty directory for an environment. It works fine for me if you create an empty directory and pass that, however.
• Since the Pkg system now creates a new ORCA directory for every version, this means that every time you update ORCA.jl it will download a new copy of plotly-orca.

I would recommend just using env = :_ORCA_jl_ so that it creates the environment under the shared .julia/conda directory.

[sglyon]

Excellent, I will give that a shot. Thanks for posting over here.

@ezgikurt @AlexYoooooo @dsweber2 I made that change on master. Would you mind checking out to the master branch (]dev ORCA) and trying to build/use?

[stevengj]

@sglyon, looks like you forgot to change the path for orca_cmd = joinpath(@__DIR__, bindir, "orca")?

[sglyon]

Yes thanks, I just noticed that also.

Where will it put the binary now?

[sglyon]

On my machine it looks like it went to ~/.julia/conda/3/envs/_ORCA_jl_/bin.

Will that always be true?

[stevengj]

You want Conda.bin_dir(env).

[sglyon]

Thanks!

[AlexYoooooo]

Excellent, I will give that a shot. Thanks for posting over here.

@ezgikurt @AlexYoooooo @dsweber2 I made that change on master. Would you mind checking out to the master branch (]dev ORCA) and trying to build/use?

what command in julia should I use to add dev version?

[ezgikurt]

Hi, thanks for the replies! The problems with the build are solved using the new version, but i still think there's something wrong because the following folder doesn't get added

ERROR: InitError: IOError: could not spawn `'C:\Users\ezgik\.julia\conda\3\envs\_ORCA_jl_\Library\bin\orca' server --por
t=7982 --graph-only`: no such file or directory (ENOENT)

i.e I don't have a directory called Library in _ORCA_jl.

-- @AlexYoooooo the command is dev ORCA in the package mode.

[sglyon]

Thanks for reporting back. This sounds like it might be a problem with the Conda.bindir function. Any chance you dig around inside the C:\Users\ezgik\.julia\conda\3\envs\_ORCA_jl_\ folder and locate the orca binary?

@stevengj any ideas why the directory returned by Conda.bindir(env) doesn't exist?

[ezgikurt]

There is the orca.cmd file which I guess is supposed to run orca.exe, but the needed directory (orca app) is not there either.

Here is what I have in that directory:

 Directory of C:\Users\ezgik\.julia\conda\3\envs\_ORCA_jl_

[stevengj]

@sglyon, maybe it is in Conda.script_dir(env)? On Unix this is the same as bin_dir, but on Windows it is different from bin_dir.

Oh, the The following packages are not available from current channels: - plotly-orca message above makes it sound like this package is simply unavailable on Windows at present.

[sglyon]

Good catch on the packages are not available line. @AlexYoooooo are you using a 32 bit architecture? From what I can tell the orca package is only released for 64 bit systems: https://anaconda.org/plotly/plotly-orca/files

I'm sorry team, but I'm not going to be able to personally debug the windows build issues because I don't have access to a windows machine. Could a windows user try out the suggestion from @stevengj to use Conda.script_dir(env) instead of Conda.bin_dir(env) on this line of the build.jl script?

[ezgikurt]

Hi @sglyon, I've tried changing the line but still getting the same error. The issue is when it builds, it doesn't add any other directories such as bin, Scripts etc. Even when I manually change paths.jl to direct it to orca.cmd file in the _ORCA_jl directory, it cannot execute that command because it fails to find the .exe file located at "/.julia/conda/3/envs/_ORCA_jl_\orca_app\orca.exe" %*

I've gone ahead an looked at the conda website and found the following: The file that we add using Conda.add gets the highlighted folder, which seems pretty light compared to the Mac/Linux versions and also older versions of plotly-orca in Windows.

So I've manually downloaded the older version of Conda, copied orca-app directory to _ORCA_jl and it was fixed. I also had to change paths.jl manually to direct it to "/.julia/conda/3/envs/_ORCAjl/orca.cmd %*` otherwise it was not working. Now I can save using ORCA - a temporary fix for those using Windows. As far as I understand it's on the latest version of plotly-orca package missing the essential files.

Sounds like you could just change the deps/build.jl file to do:

orca_cmd = Sys.is_windows() ? joinpath(Conda.prefix(env), "orca_app", "orca.exe") : joinpath(Conda.bin_dir(env), "orca")

FWIW this is also affecting me on a Mac.

[stevengj]

@pbouffard, have you tried the master version of ORCA.jl? (That is, at the package prompt in Julia, do checkout ORCA and build ORCA.)

[sglyon]

@ezgikurt thanks for reporting that. I talked to people over at plotly and they've since released v1.2.1 that has a proper windows build.

Can you try again now and see if it grabs 1.2.1 AND if 1.2.1 has the files you need?

[ezgikurt]

Hi @sglyon i can confirm this is solved on my side now, changing the command in build.jl as suggested by @stevengj as:

Sys.iswindows() ? joinpath(Conda.prefix(env), "orca_app", "orca.exe") : joinpath(Conda.bin_dir(env), "orca")

Thanks everyone for the help!

[sglyon]

Great! Thank you everyone.

@ezgikurt would you be willing to open a pull request with that fix?

[ezgikurt]

Done, thank you!

I also struggle to get ORCA build properly on MS Windows 10: I have removed the package and have reinstalled the package. Attached is the build.log and the error messages inside the ATOM-console.

I have tried to executre the two command lines mentioned in the build log-file, but this does not work: conda.exe_command_errors.txt

The workaround that worked for me (for ORCA v0.3.1): I have installed Anaconda, I started the Anaconda cmd.exe configuration and gave the command: conda install --prefix "C:/Users/u16e45/.julia/conda/3/envs/_ORCA_jl_" --force-reinstall ORCA

Now I can rebuild the ORCA-package inside Julia terminal :-)

This worked in the end but i had to run the following command in the Anaconda command prompt first

conda config --append channels conda-forge

To add the conda-forge channel as the default channels were not working. I found the answer in this stackexchange question:

[StefanPofahl]

I have the impression that this command was not useful for me: (base) C:\Users\u16e45>conda config --append channels conda-forge Warning: 'conda-forge' already in 'channels' list, moving to the bottom I do not know why, but now julia does not start anylonger in the Atom console (REPL).

[dcelisgarza]

It wasn't in my channels list. I ran that then ran your solution (I had to build ORCA in the julia REPL). I had julia break last night for me in the same way as you describe. It turned out to be an update.

[sglyon]

I believe this has been resolved!
