V1.11.7 Precompilation errors (Windows)

I updated to Julia 1.11.7 and then ran a script to update packages in a set of projects. On two of the projects, a Windows error message popup appears: The first is for LERC_jll while compilng Plots → UnitfulExt and the second while compiling DynamicExpressions → DynamicExpressionsSymbolicUtilsExt. The message is the same:

julia.exe - Bad Image

C:\users\xxxxx\.julia\compiled\v1.11\LERC_jll\0PXNr_klCcj.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try reinstalling the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support. Error status 0x0e90002.

In the second case this was for the file DispatchDoctorChainRulesCoreExt, while the first was for LERC_jll, as indicated above.

To be honest, I’m not sure where to log this issue, but I suspect this is under the main Julia repo. Any wisdom? I don’t want to log issues in all the wrong places and this does seem to only have the compiler as a common thread, but any guidance would be appreciated.

This is nothing anybody else can reproduce. Please, share a problem we can try to reproduce. For example, share the output of

using Pkg
Pkg.status()

and then the output of

Pkg.update()

Also useful: the output of:

versioninfo()

Perhaps try reinstalling v1.11.7. AFAIK there was sadly something wrong with some of the releases in the first few hours or something like that.

That indeed did the job. Thanks!
