Is anyone else getting this?

Are you on Arch Linux (or a distro based on Arch)? If so, compile Nimble manually. The arch package is broken.

I am on Fedora 21, and I did build it manually


nim c -d:release src/nimble

The link works fine in firefox, and also nimble used to work on this machine. I have re-cloned the repository but still have the same error. I have also deleted the .nimble folder (which should be moved into something like .conf)

Which version of Nim are you using?

xyz32 (orginal) [2015-06-04T19:28:43+02:00] view original

Latest (0.11.2).

I am at work now, and here I have nimble 0.6.0 and this one works fine (it has been built some time ago though: nimble v0.6.0 compiled at 2015-04-23 14:14:55), I have to check what is the version I have home (the one that does not work).

The one at home, that does not work: nimble v0.6.0 compiled at 2015-06-03 19:33:25 They are both on fedora 21, only built with different nim versions.

I'm not sure what is going on. I recompiled everything on Ubuntu 14.04.2 and it works. Could it be a Fedora specific issue?

xyz32 (orginal) [2015-06-05T14:57:32+02:00] view original

Seems to be an issue on my home machine only. I recompiled the version of nimble that I have on the Fedora machine at work and everything works.

I will need to do some more digging around.

Thanks for the help

Sure. Please let me know what you find out, you are definitely not the first person to hit this issue.

I don't know if this helps:

Fixed it.

I think there was an issue with the version of Nim on this machine. The way I fixed it was to delete the Nim folder and re-clone the release. I rebuilt nimble and everything works now.

The old folder of Nim I used git pull to update to 0.11.2, so I must have missed something.

Thanks.
