This is a sub-issue of #266 that describes and defines one issue that can be solved independent of the others.
Overview
Affects phases: 4
Root Cause: (Windows exclusive) Table name case sensitivity issues
Prevents error: Autograder fails to compile on the autograder even though it works locally
Tip on detection:
Sorry, you can't use additional packages. Please remove these packages from your code. (list of extra packages)
The fail to compile error already contains the exact output, and if students looked carefully, they would be able to figure this one out. However, they often don't realize that used additional imports. Students who run into this error sometimes used AI tools to write their code, which assumed they would have access to package that they don't.
Detection Strategy
Scan packaging input and point out the extra packages they can't use.
Implementation Details
When there is a problem packaging the repo, scan the error output for regexes that indicate this issue. Then warn the student that this is an issue they need to fix. We can still refer to the generated error output for the actual line and column definitions of the packages not allowed.
