Error when cloning in Windows

[raylemon]

Thanks again, I’ll investigate this !!

Hi @raylemon , thank you for the feedback.

I'm using the config principally in a Linux machine. However, I did test it in a Windows 10 machine, it worked with some limitations (some issues with tree-sitter and dirvish-fd).

It seems to me that this error is caused by straight.el. Try to remove the .emacs.d/local folder and try again.

By the way, what version of Emacs you are using? and how you installed it (using Gnu installer, MSYS2?).

EDIT: I've just retested it on a clean Windows 10 machine, it seems to work!

Try to remove the .emacs.d/local directory and try again.

I use emacs 29 build with Msys2 on Windows 11.
The bug is due to version of emacs. I have tested with vanilla emacs 28 (installed with winget tool) and it works.

I use your doom config in Windows (with some adjustements), and i love your config (mainly for ltex-lsp).

Edit: after installation with emacs 28, if I launch emacs 29, it compiles the entire configuration. Strange behaviour, but it works.

Any way to replace "ls" needed by dirvish-fd by a Powershell command (Powershell has alias "ls" for Get-ChildItem command) ?

Thanks for the feedback, great to hear that!

For the ls command, I've fixed it in my test machine by adding C:\MSYS2\usr\bin (where there is a version of ls with other Unix-like commands) to the Path environment variable (from Win+R, SystemPropertiesAdvanced, click Environment Variables).

I hope it helps!

Thanks for the quick reply !
So, another problem, linked to this : if I want to use chemacs 2 to have your config and doom config, I can’t use your config with another folder than .emacs.d

[abougouffa]

I don't think that the current config works with Chemacs2, in Emacs 29+ thought, there is a new option --init-directory which should work!

[abougouffa]

After taking a look at my old Chemacs2 configuration, I would say that you can specify your MinEmacs directory in Chemacs2's ~/.emacs-profiles.el like this:

(("doom"      . ((user-emacs-directory . "path/to/your/doom/clone")
                 (env . (("DOOMDIR" . "~/.doom.d")))))
 ("minemacs"  . ((user-emacs-directory . "path/to/your/minemacs/clone")
                 (env . (("MINEMACS_DIR" . "~/.minemacs.d"))))))

In MinEmacs, all directories are defined with respect to user-emacs-directory, so if this one is set properly by Chemacs2, it should work!

I'm assuming this issue is resolved, please feel free to reopen it if you still face this problem.
