Looks like `HttpParser` has a zipped dependency and `build.jl` is trying unzip it using `7z`.

Try installing 7-Zip: [http://www.7-zip.org/](http://www.7-zip.org/)

Actually `7-Zip` should come with the Julia installation.  
Check the `bin` sub-directory of Julia contains `7z.exe` and `7z.dll`  
For you the directory should be `C:\Users\caudaus1\AppData\Local\Julia-0.5.0\bin`  
Also check that this `bin` sub-directory is in your `PATH`. You can check by using `split(ENV["Path"], ';')`

The 7-zip files are in the bin folder.

Running the command `split(ENV["Path"], ';')` shows the following “bin” folder:

I believe this needs to be changed, how can I do this?

Are you sure that’s the only entry in `Path`?  
What’s the first entry from `split(ENV["Path"], ';')`?  
What is the output of `ENV["Path"]`?

You could try manually appending the Julia bin sub-directory (`C:\Users\caudaus1\AppData\Local\Julia-0.5.0\bin`) to the Windows environment variable `Path`.

However, this shouldn’t be necessary.  
Given you have had several errors, perhaps it’s better to start fresh and reinstall Julia.

I was beginning to think the same thing.

My concern is how to start fresh and do it right the first time. Bear in mind, I’ve attempted to reinstall Julia multiple times now with the same errors.

I would suggest the following:

1. Remove Julia

- Remove via Control Panel
- Ensure Julia is actually removed from the file system `C:\Users\caudaus1\AppData\Local`
- Remove all Julia-related directories and files (.julia, .juliarc.jl etc)

1. Install Julia v0.5.0 standalone:

- Check Windows environment variable JULIA\_PKGDIR is set to local drive (say, `C:\Users\caudaus1\.julia`)
- Startup Julia and check
- Check `Pkg.dir()` is correct (`C:\Users\caudaus1\.julia\v0.5`)
- Check Julia bin sub-directory is in `Path` using `split(ENV["Path"], ';')`

1. Try `Pkg.add("HttpParser")`

What are ENV[“HOME”], ENV[“HOMEDRIVE”], and ENV[“HOMEPATH”] set to, if anything?

@Paul_Soderlind  
I tried creating and running the bat file as you suggested. After starting Julia with the bat file, I tried to check the homedrive and again found it to be linked to my H: drive. I am not sure why Julia seems to be ignoring my attempts at setting this to the C drive.

You may wish to check out the [JuliaPro](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-the-juliapro-distribution-by-julia-computing/1736) builds that were announced recently. Should be a one-click install and there’s no package build process to go wrong.

</div>

For anyone trying to solve this, the following solution worked for me on Windows:

1. Create a new folder on your local drive: C:\Users\username\testBuild
2. In the main juliarc.jl file have the following:

ENV[“HOME”] = “C:\Users\username\Julia”  
ENV[“HOMEDRIVE”] = “C:\Users\username\Julia”  
ENV[“JULIA\_PKGDIR”] = “C:\Users\username\testBuild\.atom”  
ENV[“PATH”] = JULIA\_HOME\*“;“_joinpath(JULIA\_HOME,“…”,“Git”,“bin”)_”;”\*ENV[“PATH”]  
ENV[“HOMESHARE”] = “C:\Users\username”  
Base.LOAD\_CACHE\_PATH[1] = “C:\Users\username\.julia\v0.5”

1. Copy this file to the juliarc.jl file in Atom which can be found by going to Packages → Julia → Open Startup file.

2. Create the environment variable ATOM\_HOME = C:\username.atom (Not sure if this is needed, best to do it)

3. Create the environment variable HOME = C:\username.atom (Not sure if this is needed, best to do it)

4. In the Julia Terminal (Not through Atom), type Pkg.init() - wait for everything to be cloned.

5. Open Atom, type 1+1 into Julia and hopefully it should work.

\*This worked for me on Windows 7 and version 0.5 of Julia…

Note that this version is very, very old; very few packages (if any?) still support it. You are much better off using `v1.0.1`.
