Unable to install IJulia

Welcome to the community!

ERROR: SystemError: opening file “C:\Users\nickk.julia\registries\General\Registry.toml”: No such file or directory

This is strange. Julia should make this file (copied from the internet) for you.

I found a similar issue and “solution”:

github.com/JuliaLang/julia

".julia/registries/General/Registry.toml": No such file or directory

Hey all, I just downloaded Julia and this is the issue I am running into: `…`` (@v1.5) pkg> add Franklin Installing known registries into `~/.julia` ######################################################################## 100.0% ERROR: SystemError: opening file "/Users/patricasparreo/.julia/registries/General/Registry.toml": No such file or directory Stacktrace: [1] systemerror(::String, ::Int32; extrainfo::Nothing) at ./error.jl:168 [2] #systemerror#48 at ./error.jl:167 [inlined] [3] systemerror at ./error.jl:167 [inlined] [4] open(::String; lock::Bool, read::Nothing, write::Nothing, create::Nothing, truncate::Nothing, append::Nothing) at ./iostream.jl:284 [5] open at ./iostream.jl:273 [inlined] [6] open(::Base.var"#294#295"{Tuple{}}, ::String; kwargs::Base.Iterators.Pairs{Union{},Union{},Tuple{},NamedTuple{(),Tuple{}}}) at ./io.jl:323 [7] open at ./io.jl:323 [inlined] [8] read at ./io.jl:408 [inlined] [9] parsefile at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/ext/TOML/src/TOML.jl:50 [inlined] [10] read_registry(::String; cache::Bool) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/Types.jl:1044 [11] read_registry at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/Types.jl:1039 [inlined] [12] (::Pkg.Types.var"#94#97"{Pkg.Types.Context,String,Pkg.Types.RegistrySpec})(::String) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/Types.jl:1016 [13] mktempdir(::Pkg.Types.var"#94#97"{Pkg.Types.Context,String,Pkg.Types.RegistrySpec}, ::String; prefix::String) at ./file.jl:682 [14] mktempdir at ./file.jl:680 [inlined] (repeats 2 times) [15] clone_or_cp_registries(::Pkg.Types.Context, ::Array{Pkg.Types.RegistrySpec,1}, ::String) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/Types.jl:980 [16] clone_or_cp_registries at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/Types.jl:970 [inlined] (repeats 2 times) [17] clone_default_registries(::Pkg.Types.Context; only_if_empty::Bool) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/Types.jl:874 [18] clone_default_registries at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/Types.jl:862 [inlined] [19] find_registered!(::Pkg.Types.Context, ::Array{String,1}, ::Array{Base.UUID,1}) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/Types.jl:1239 [20] registry_resolve!(::Pkg.Types.Context, ::Array{Pkg.Types.PackageSpec,1}) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/Types.jl:770 [21] add(::Pkg.Types.Context, ::Array{Pkg.Types.PackageSpec,1}; preserve::Pkg.Types.PreserveLevel, platform::Pkg.BinaryPlatforms.MacOS, kwargs::Base.Iterators.Pairs{Union{},Union{},Tuple{},NamedTuple{(),Tuple{}}}) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/API.jl:176 [22] add(::Pkg.Types.Context, ::Array{Pkg.Types.PackageSpec,1}) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/API.jl:140 [23] #add#21 at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/API.jl:67 [inlined] [24] add(::Array{Pkg.Types.PackageSpec,1}) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/API.jl:67 [25] do_cmd!(::Pkg.REPLMode.Command, ::REPL.LineEditREPL) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/REPLMode/REPLMode.jl:404 [26] do_cmd(::REPL.LineEditREPL, ::String; do_rethrow::Bool) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/REPLMode/REPLMode.jl:382 [27] do_cmd at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/REPLMode/REPLMode.jl:377 [inlined] [28] (::Pkg.REPLMode.var"#24#27"{REPL.LineEditREPL,REPL.LineEdit.Prompt})(::REPL.LineEdit.MIState, ::Base.GenericIOBuffer{Array{UInt8,1}}, ::Bool) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/Pkg/src/REPLMode/REPLMode.jl:546 [29] #invokelatest#1 at ./essentials.jl:710 [inlined] [30] invokelatest at ./essentials.jl:709 [inlined] [31] run_interface(::REPL.Terminals.TextTerminal, ::REPL.LineEdit.ModalInterface, ::REPL.LineEdit.MIState) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/REPL/src/LineEdit.jl:2355 [32] run_frontend(::REPL.LineEditREPL, ::REPL.REPLBackendRef) at /Users/julia/buildbot/worker/package_macos64/build/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/REPL/src/REPL.jl:1144 [33] (::REPL.var"#38#42"{REPL.LineEditREPL,REPL.REPLBackendRef})() at ./task.jl:356 ``` Thoughts to resolve this?

Hm, I deleted the general registry and it seems to be working now.

I’m not sure what’s happening, a temporary internet problem? Or permission problem? I doubt you need the even newer Julia 1.5.2, but could you try again?
