Just deleted Julia from my computer and reinstalled via juliaup. All seemed to work well, no issues installing or accessing juliaup from the shell, but for some reason I can’t access julia itself.
Anyone have any idea as to why this would be happening?
The normal setup routine for Juliaup should have placed a symlink julia to julialauncher into the /home/user/.juliaup/bin folder. So the real question is why that didn’t happen Was there an error message during setup? How exactly did you install?
I am surprised, in my installations juliaup folder is not at the home directory but inside the .julia one. How did you get it and installed it? What is the version used?
This change a while ago, i.e. the current version now puts the julialauncher and juliaup binaries and julia symlink into a folder called ~/.juliaup by default, but the actual Julia versions still get installed into the depot, i.e. ~/.julia/juliaup. There is no need to change this for you, though, you can just stick with the installation you have.
@jdad@davidanthoff Sorry guys, just having the realization now that I accidentally closed the terminal a few hours ago which I had assumed didn’t affect the installation process at all as when I reopened it, I could use juliaup just fine.
I’m guessing the routine finished everything except for creating that symlink…
I would just do a juliaup self uninstall and then reinstall again and make sure you let it finish. If it still doesn’t work, could you copy everything it prints to the output and paste it here?
I can confirm that after doing juliaup self uninstall followed by curl -fsSL https://install.julialang.org | sh that julia was acessible via the PATH without any issues.
