xTIMEcomposer import wizard doesn't work on Windows

Post by Endre »

Hello,

I have tried to build AN00124_CDC_VCOM_class on a Windows7 host. It has 3 library dependencies:
ERROR: Cannot find module: lib_logging (>=2.0.0)
ERROR: Cannot find module: lib_xassert (>=2.0.0)
ERROR: Cannot find module: lib_gpio (>=1.0.0)

The Import Wizard cannot find these modules and doesn't report any errors.

I have tried to build this project few days ago on 3 different Linux distros. On those hosts the Import Wizard was working fine.

On Windows I tried to turn off firewall and anti-virus protection, but it didn't help.
Do you have any hint for debugging or to make it working?

Yep, same problem here, both on mac and windows. It can't get the version strings for some reason.

The problem just started happening yesterday, and I can't figure out how to make things work again. I moved from Mac to Windows to see if that was the problem, but it's the same problem on both platforms.

I have managed to work it around by selecting the modules in the Libraries view and clicking on the Import Software button in the Libraries Info view.

I seem to have fixed it (on Windows at least) by changing the file permissions on the whole c:\program files (x86)\XMOS directory so I have write access. Some cache stuff is written inside there and windows 10 has permissions turned down on those files.
