JuliaPro 1.01.1 crashes on older PC running Windows 10 64-bit

Problem solved, though I still don’t know why.

Since JuliaPro 1.01.1 was crashing, I tried the standard Julia 1.01.1. I could run julia.exe without crashing, but when I tried to add any package, “ERROR: no active project” would show up and operation would fail.

I searched this error message online and found this post:

0.7 doesn't let me add any packages

Hi, this is a duplicate post, but my original post was really not in a suitable thread. as per subject, doesn’t matter what the package is I get the same error. echo $JULIA_LOAD_PATH . any ideas ? Thanks. ‘’’ pkg> add PyPlot ERROR: no active project Stacktrace: [1] error(::String) at ./error.jl:33 [2] find_project_file(::Nothing) at /buildworker/worker/package_linux64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v0.7/Pkg/src/Types.jl:243 [3] Pkg.Types.EnvCache(::Nothing) at /buildworker/worker/packa…

Since JULIA_LOAD_PATH was mentioned in this post, and on this machine I had JULIA_LOAD_PATH pointing to 2 paths where I created my own modules, I tried removing the JULIA_LOAD_PATH environmental variable.

After that, magically the Julia package adding started working. I then tried re-installing JuliaPro 1.01.1, and it also worked!

I still don’t know why. On another Windows 10 64-bit machine I also had JULIA_LOAD_PATH pointing to similar paths, but that machine had no problem with JuliaPro.

Anyway, I’m happy it’s working now.
