PATH issue #685

Open johnbocook opened 9 years ago

johnbocook commented 9 years ago

On both Windows 10 and Ubuntu, when I try to run foundation-apps new projectName I get "Command Not Found". I'm not sure how to find if the PATH was setup properly or setup it if not.

Did you get any errors when running npm install -g foundation-cli?

johnbocook commented 9 years ago

I tried on another VM and was able to run the command. Here is the output, http://pastebin.com/KhLS8JPQ

Alright, in this case I think the Git clone failed. Does the git command work properly in your environment?

johnbocook commented 9 years ago

It does. I as able to clone the manual install repo. I have the cli functioning in OSX but both windows machines are still giving errors. I've followed a bunch of different tutorials but no luck yet.

I see. The CLI is failing on process.chdir(), which is when it changes directory to the folder that git clone just created. Do you see that folder after running foundation-apps new?

johnbocook commented 9 years ago

I'm using cyg-win. I just read an issue with grunt. cyg-win installs an outdated version of node and some issue with git being locked into the cyg-win directory. I wonder if that stops git from having certain permissions needed. I'll try again with the windows command prompt and power shell to see if I can replicate the issue.

gakimball commented 9 years ago

Ah, so the issue is Node not being able to shell out to the git command. In that case I assume the CLI would report an error relating to exec('git clone'), but in this case it's not.
