Choco script installs fine but command fails with message

[Former user]

I just downloaded and successfully run the uru.0.8.4.nupkg chocolatey recipe but when I try to run:

uru admin install 242

it fails with the following message:

[ERROR] uru_rt.exe must be present in a directory on PATH

Other commands seem to work fine.

My environment is Windows 10 Pro, version 1703, OS Build 15063.632

If I try to execute manually from the Command Promt I get an error message.

If I do the same on Git-Bash I get this:

tools $ ./uru_rt.exe admin install 242
uru()
{
  export URU_INVOKER='bash'

  # uru_rt must already be on PATH
  uru_rt "$@"

  if [[ -d "$URU_HOME" ]]; then
    if [[ -f "$URU_HOME/uru_lackee" ]]; then
      . "$URU_HOME/uru_lackee"
    fi
  else
    if [[ -f "$HOME/.uru/uru_lackee" ]]; then
      . "$HOME/.uru/uru_lackee"
    fi
  fi
}
tools $

Added the uru_rt.exe folder "C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\uru\tools" to system PATH.

c:\>uru admin install 242
[ERROR] must install from same directory as uru_rt.exe

c:\>

Finally tried running from the uru_rt.exe folder and got:

Thanks for the details. That does look ugly.

I suspect the problem is you're trying to run uru admin install 242 when you don't need to. When you install via chocolatey, you shouldn't need to do the uru install dance since my choco install script should set that up for you. You should be able to just start using uru and everything just works. For example, register your first ruby with uru similar to uru admin add C:\Apps\rubies\ruby-2.3\bin etc.

Based on your "Other commands seem to work fine" comment from your original post, I suspect everything's OK on your system, but let's double check the current state of your choco uru install. Reply back with a dir listing for your C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin and C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\uru\tools dirs and choco version.

Hey Jon thanks for the follow up.

Do you mean download and install some ruby version I got somewhere else and then register it using uru?

Both chocolatey dirs look to have a good uru install.

Next step is exactly as you mention.

Download and install a ruby, say from RubyInstaller. Once installed, register that ruby with uru via the uru admin add command. For example, if you installed the ruby to C:\rubies\ruby-2.4 you then register that installed ruby via uru admin add C:\rubies\ruby-2.4\bin.

Once registered, you can use uru similar to these examples.

Resolved.
