Official Windows executables don't (always?) work -- "side-by-side configuration is incorrect" #780
Comments
Also encountering the same error on a local win10 vm. Interestingly the binaries for windows are running fine in github actions windows runners (https://github.com/MichaelHatherly/Tectonic.jl/runs/2762080655?check_suite_focus=true#step:6:48). |
I'm not very experienced with Windows development and I'm afraid that I have no idea what this message means! I will try to look into it, but if there are any Windows developers out there who are more familiar with these matters, please let me know. (That being said, I literally haven't even Googled this issue yet — I have work things that will keep me busy this week.) If it is related to redistributables, maybe the split into sub-crates has caused some kind of problem with regards to the |
I also have the same problem. Using
This leads to this issue: watchexec/watchexec#192 |
This may in fact be enough to fix the official Windows binaries (tectonic-typesetting#780). It looks like there was a bug in `watchexec` that was recently fixed.
Thank you @B4rtware, excellent sleuthing! My initial investigations suggest that this is indeed the problem. And based on my test runs I think that #782 should fix this problem. I'm not sure if there's a convenient way to update the CI to detect this kind of problem in the future, but I'm very pleased that this appears to be an easy fix! (Knock wood ...) |
Tried 0.5.1, but still got the same error. 😢 |
0.5.1 will still be broken. If all goes well, there will be a 0.5.2 soon that fixes it. |
Latest continuous deployment https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic/releases/download/continuous/tectonic-0.5.1+20210608-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.zip has fixed it for me, thanks. |
I can confirm...Thanks for the quick fix :) Would be nice to see an official released binary soon! |
@SimonDanisch Clearly my release notes have to do an even better job of extolling the virtues of our release automation system! I just initiated a 0.5.2 release, which took me all of five minutes to kick off. The release should be published in an hour or two. (I developed a novel release automation workflow last summer and a tool to implement it, Cranko, and they have been life-changing.) |
I'm getting:
I guess this is due to some missing C++ redistributable package?
I tried the MSVC and the GNU option.
