I am curently developing a Rust program on Windows 10. A few months ago I created a library package using cargo. Since then, I've been developing this program. Whenever I want to execute what I have, I goto to cmd and execute the following command inside my cargo folder:
cargo run --release --bin main
But, a few weeks ago something strange started to happen. Whenever I execute this same command, I notice that the program in fact starts but it finishes preemptively (I know this because of the output to the terminal). When the program finishes it is supposed to write to the terminal "FINISHED". But this never happens. If I execute the command again (without changing the code), this time the only thing that's printed to the terminal is the build message that cargo puts out. Then, when I execute a third time, I have the following message on my terminal:
error: 'cargo.exe' is not installed for the toolchain 'stable-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc'
To install, run `rustup component add cargo --toolchain stable-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`
Then if I execute the suggested command, I have the following:
component 'cargo' for target 'x86_64-pc-windows-msvc' was automatically added because it is required for toolchain 'stable-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc'
What's weird is that if I execute the previous cargo run command on the Ubuntu terminal application that I have (it simulates a linux terminal, but I am still on my windows file system), this problem doesn't occur. I can execute 100 or 1000 times and no problems. But this isn't good, since my program creates a multi threaded environment and my Ubuntu terminal is like a virtual machine, so I don't believe that I have access to all of my laptop's memory.
Currently I have the following version of rust on windows and my ubuntu terminal:
rustup 1.18.3 (435397f48 2019-05-22)
What I have been doing until now to solve this is on my windows is to reboot my computer and reinstall rust, since when I execute "rustup self uninstall" sometimes an error of not having permissions to install it appears (I only have 1 user on my pc and supposedly I have admin privileges).
I have googled this situation, but I haven't found anything regarding rustc disappearing when executing cargo run. Now I can't even run my program on windows cmd, since this problems happens every time.
The problem was the anti virus I had on my PC.
After replacing it the program is working perfectly and finishing without the problem I had with rustc.

I would like to build/launch the VSCode source code in the native Bash for Windows client. I have followed the steps outlined in the VSCode wiki on how to contribute, and everything is working as expected (All commands have been run on the WSL terminal following the Linux instructions)
After running yarn run watch, I try to launch VSCode by running DISPLAY=:0 ./scripts/code.sh from the source code directory, but nothing happens. I get two duplicate warnings:
[21496:1128/120229.392130:WARNING:audio_manager.cc(295)] Multiple instances of AudioManager detected
but I'm not sure if this is causing the problem. I have an X Server client running, and have used to to successfully launch native Windows applications through WSL (terminator, emacs, etc.)
Is what I'm trying to do possible? If so, how can I make it work?
Amazing that you asked this! I was attempting to do the exact same thing at (it seems) the exact same time. Here's my process.
Install XMing
Install the xfree apps
Set DISPLAY=:0
Run xeyes ==> Awesome googly eyes!
Attempt to build vscode from source. The build docs seem to be incomplete b/c I had to install a ton of libraries beyond those listed e.g.
yarn
gulp
gulp-cli
pkg-config
libx11-dev
libxkbfile-dev
libsecret-1-dev
libgtk2.0-dev
libxss-dev
gnome-dev
libgconf2-dev
libnss3-dev
libasound2-dev
Eventually get the yarn tasks to finish such that I could run code.sh
./scripts/code.sh
[20474:1128/153959.035267:ERROR:bus.cc(427)] Failed to connect to the bus: F

[20474:1128/153959.082101:WARNING:audio_manager.cc(254)] Multiple instances

Looking at ps I see that the process was running.
Conjectures
It seems that building from source from WSL is not yet supported. Or maybe you can build the artifact, but you can't connect to the Windows display to show it. Based on the quality of the xeyes session, it looks like a very, very, very primitive experience e.g. still using WinXP-style minimize / maximize / close icons.
I was literally writing an Issue on their github page when I thought I'd do one last search and found this post. Much of vscode treats WSL as a second-class environment on Windows. Recent work seems to suggest that things are going to get better as driving to integration between Windows' two internal environments continues to improve (e.g. https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/39144)
Update 2017-11-30
Based on some pursuit via Github, it seems that this issue has been reported to the WSL team: https://github.com/Microsoft/WSL/issues/2293. It appears to be under active consideration by the WSL team. I've added some commentary about my use case there.
I am attempting to install Julia on my Samsung Series 7 laptop, which has OS Windows 7 64-bit. Instructions on how to do this are located at https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/master/README.windows.md, under the section "Compiling with MinGW/MSYS2".
Step 4-ii says to run the following command in MSYS2:
contrib/windows/get_toolchain.sh 64
When I run this command, I get the following error:
error: this script requires having 7z installed
I have no idea how to get around this. I already had 7zip installed on my computer, but I reinstalled it and am still having the issue. Later, the build step (step 4-iv in the link), which says to run the following command in MSYS2
make -j 4
also fails, giving me the error
bash: make: command not found
I suspect this is because of the earlier failure in step 4-ii, though I can't be sure.
My question: How do I get around these issues to get a good working version of Julia?
Incidentally, the immediate reason I am trying to do this is because I want to do the Julia tutorial located at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWkgEddb4-A&feature=youtu.be&list=PLP8iPy9hna6T0dEHtj0GZymvT6ODIJWj0. I tried to just download the regular Julia installation located at http://julialang.org/downloads/ to do this, but it became apparent as I started going through the tutorial that that a more substantial Julia build was required, and I think this is the one that I need.
Thank you for any help.
I am trying to get some code running which uses make. I've downloaded and installed both MinGW (standard 32 bit) and TDM-GCCs flavor of MinGW on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine.
When I run make (i.e. mingw32-make.exe) in Administrator mode, I get the following error message:
Windows cannot access the specified path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.
The weird/scary part is that, upon running, it immediately deletes the exe file.
I ran a checksum SHA1 as recommended in the comments using the Microsoft (R) File Checksum Integrity Verifier V2.05:
C:\path\to\folder>fciv.exe -sha1 mingw32-make.exe
//
// File Checksum Integrity Verifier version 2.05.
//
c8ae5c780ab7bed652883d6443b5bfe5e23d30c9 mingw32-make.exe
I don't understand what this output means, but maybe it's helpful to someone.
Notes:
This happens regardless of where the file is located on my pc.
This behavior is specific to the make program (others such as gfortran and gcc appear to be working fine)
Renaming the file makes no difference.
I am an administrator on the pc
Same behavior when I run the program from the explorer or command line.
My anti-virus program (Avast) does not detect any problems with the file when I scan it.
I got the MinGW setup file from this SourceForge page.
I got the TDM-GCC web installer from this page.
The file size is 219,662 bytes (from both the main MinGW and TDM-GCC packages)
I have run make from the command line where I have started the command prompt by way of selecting Run as Administrator in the context menu.
I have also tried to run make by selecting Run as Administrator when I have it selected.
I run the command mingw32-make when this behavior occurs. I have also tried renaming it to things like make and foo with the same result.
The first time this happened with both MinGW it deleted the original file and I re-installed it using the mingw-get application. From thereon after I started making copies of the original mingw32-make for testing.
For the make executable, I have all permissions (including Read & execute) except the special permissions field.
After using the process manager I found out it was indeed Avast that was the problem :S A couple of lines revealed avast actually deleted the file before windows got around to executing it, which was the reason for the windows message. I put Avast on 'Silent Mode' a while back; I thought the only purpose of this mode was to suppress notifications about minor updates, but apparently it also gave Avast permission to deal with 'threats' silently as well.
After figuring that out the solution was straightforward. I just went into the settings and created an exception for the mingw32-make.exe file. It now runs without issue.
Thanks very much for your help everyone!
User account has administrator privilege but when user started to work , not all privilege are taken in account , just start your application for compiling with run with administrator mode try this : https://technet.microsoft.com/en-in/library/cc781763(v=ws.10).aspx
I'm trying to automatically download Nuget.exe from a Rakefile, in order to minimize the amount of initial setup needed to run my samples on GitHub.
I've understand how to download a file (I'm using HTTParty) and how to save a binary file (using the b flag on File.new) but now I've got problem running Nuget.exe. In particular:
if I launch it directly or from PowerShell, the executable runs fine;
if I launch it from cmd or from a Rakefile (which in turn runs cmd), Windows tells me that the program "stopped working".
I reproduced the same behavior with the Nuget bootstrapper, so I thought that the cause was some configuration in my computer.
It then occured to me that I installed ansicom, a library to handle ANSI sequences. I disabled it and then Nuget started without any problem.
All,
Am trying to get Node.js to work on Vista machine.
I installed Cygwin (as per the Github instructions) which appears to have been installed correctly. However, none of the commands are executing.
Are there any tutorials for the stages after the Cygwin installation?
PROBLEM: When any command is executed, I get 'Bash: command not found' error.
Not even command like 'c:\cygwin\bin' is executing.
When I type 'user' in cygwin command prompt, I get 'ntvdm has encountered an system error. Parameter incorrect'.
I thought the above error may be due to the firewall, disabling the firewall did not have any effect, running the program with admin rights also did not change the results...
Am confused and would love to get some guidance on what steps to go with next on getting Node.js up and running on a Windows Vista machine.
Many thanks,
UPDATE1:
We managed to make a bit more progress. It appears that we had not installed all the relevant files related to Cygwin. Upon re-download and reinstalled, it ran well, however, we have driven into another error. Error we get:
How to compile/install node.js(could not configure a cxx compiler!) (Ubuntu).
We followed the instructions as per the above thread (3rd post from top for Windows machines), however, we are still stuck at the same error.
Any guidance please?
Have you tried just using the Windows self contained binaries? http://node-js.prcn.co.cc/ This way you actually don't need to bother with Cygwin.
At first, i tried it your way too, using Cygwin. After smashing my head for the 10th time against a wall i just stopped trying and found a much cleaner solution.
I'm using VirtualBox running a Debain guest system to locally develop on my Windows 7 machine. Using VirtualBox, you can easily set up shared folders or port forwarding for node apps between your Windows machine and your Debian guest system.
Since you are using a plain Linux-system, all the compiling-pain is blown away.
If you plan to run node.js in production on a windows system: don't. I hardly believe node.js will be ever stable enough on windows-based systems using MINGW/Cygwin...
People seem to run into problems with Cygwin because they think that they are using a Windows machine.
If you install Cygwin, and open a bash shell prompt using the Cygwin icon, you are now in a UNIX environment and everything works the same as it would on UNIX. That includes building node.js.
I think you added some info to the question and I can see your problem. Yes, normally on Cygwin it has been possible to build node.js just as you would on any UNIX system, but that is no longer possible on Windows 7. Before running ./configure you have to:
Close all cygwin apps.
Double-click on C:\Cygwin\bin\ash.exe
Run ./rebaseall and when it completes, run ./perlrebase.
exit from the ash shell window.
At this point Cygwin will be back to normal and you can ./configure and make install.
