Repair your installation in the installer.

can you edit install.sh and where it calls $outfile add --debug

then send the result

after --location I assume?

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:26 AM

#

if you look at the debug log you'll see that it's literally chmodding the files and succeeding, which means they do get created successfully

yet once you check with ls or run discord they're somehow gone

#

it doesn't make any sense

#

they somehow mysteriously disappear

#

has to be something cursed with your system

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:27 AM

wintry rock ``` vm@vmtest-virtualbox ~]$ ./install.sh Downloading Installer... Running with ...

well actually this one only has package.json

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:27 AM

#

it only explicitly mentions package.json in the log
but yeah only my system and my VM can replicate it for some reason

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:27 AM

#

but earlier logs had all files

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:28 AM

#

beans and me have the exact same ISO for the VM too

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:28 AM

#

well anyway if you run the installer often enough, you will get rate limited by github :p so that might play part of it

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:28 AM

#

possibly, yeah I'll stop running it before they block my address

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:29 AM

#

nah they won't lol

#

but there's a limit of 60 api requests an hour

#

the installer sends 2 i think

#

so if you run it 30 times you get rate limited

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:29 AM

#

oh I definitely exceeded it at some point earlier

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:29 AM

#

the error handling is a bit lacklustre in some cases

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:29 AM

#

I was running the wget method that beans proposed till it worked

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:29 AM

#

installer honestly needs a rewrite at this point

#

i rewrote parts of it multiple time when changing method of installing and fetching but it's kinda messy

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:30 AM

#

hmmm
I tried to download the dist directory directly from the repo, but couldn't find it, probably the wrong repo

trim mortar Jun 26, 2024, 6:30 AM

the weirdest thing to me, is that it works fine when ran outside of the script

why do that, dont we know it works if you run the installer from outside the script

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:32 AM

read the code

it just downloads the installer binary and runs it

true true, just as a backup

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:32 AM

#

there's no difference to just downloading it manually

trim mortar Jun 26, 2024, 6:32 AM

#

the only difference is see is the
env "$@"

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:32 AM

#

yeah... I noticed it just ran the commands I ran when wget'ing the binary manually

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:33 AM

#

well actually the script does pass this variable
XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$XDG_CONFIG_HOME

#

maybe you have it set to something ridiculous but it should reflect itself in the path then

#

echo $XDG_CONFIG_HOME

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:33 AM

#

trim mortar Jun 26, 2024, 6:33 AM

#

but if it was an issue with that, how come package.json gets written

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:33 AM

#

trim mortar the only difference is see is the `env "$@"`

all this does is add environment variables

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:33 AM

#

tried it the second you mentioned that env variable, it's blank lol

https://linux.die.net/man/1/env

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:34 AM

yeah looking at the output of env rn, it's $HOME

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:34 AM

#

wintry rock yeah... I noticed it just ran the commands I ran when wget'ing the binary manual...

some mysteries are unsolvable for mankind...

trim mortar Jun 26, 2024, 6:34 AM

#

lavish shale all this does is add environment variables

i know that, but i was saying if it was an issue with env vars, how come package.json gets written but nothiing else

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:35 AM

#

\

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:35 AM

#

env with no arguments prints your environment variables :p

#

env FOO=bar command runs command with the additional environment variable FOO

#

the script does that to forward your XDG_CONFIG_HOME (which is a standard to customise your config directory) to the installer since when run as root it won't be correct anymore usually

trim mortar Jun 26, 2024, 6:38 AM

#

if either of you ever find the issue, please let me know
this is really interesting to me

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:38 AM

#

env XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$XDG_CONFIG_HOME echo $XDG_CONFIG_HOME

idk if I did it right, but that printed nothing but an empty newline

trim mortar Jun 26, 2024, 6:38 AM

#

anyway gn

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:39 AM

because yeah $XDG_CONFIG_HOME doesn't exist as far as I can tell?

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:39 AM

EndeavourOS

Setting XDG_CONFIG_HOME

I see lots of references to this env variable. It appears that packages being installed that need this value will default to $HOME/.config if the variable isn’t set. Should I set this variable? If so, where should I do it to have maximum effect on startup? If not, why do we even refer to XDG_CONFIG_HOME?

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:39 AM

#

try ```
env XDG_CONFIG_HOME=hi bash -c 'echo $XDG_CONFIG_HOME'

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:39 AM

#

it seems to not be set in EOS

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:40 AM

wintry rock it seems to not be set in EOS

it's not set anywhere. only if you manually set it

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:40 AM

#

ah

lavish shale Jun 26, 2024, 6:40 AM

#

it's a standard to customise your config directory location

#

if you don't want shit in ~/.config you can change it to some different location and any good program will respect it

#

but a lot of programs ignore the variable SKULL_SKELETON

wintry rock Jun 26, 2024, 6:41 AM

#

I see, interesting, I've never touched it

#

Still doesn't explain the files vanishing bruhhhhhhhh

#

I don't even know anymore, nobody else can reproduce this.

#

Imagine it's a bug in my CPU that only affects things called Vencord

#

Nah jk, I'm banking on some weird network issue that the installer doesn't handle. I can't imagine any other explanation for both my physical machine and my VM having the exact same issue, but beans not having it despite having an idential ISO.

#

Anw thanks for your understanding, I will sleep now too.
