Error when i run localDevEnv.ps1 about al-go HOT 12 CLOSED

@BW-PA thanks for the explanation - will investigate that.

from al-go.

On the original error (@ingebruvik, @BW-PA and @gunnargestsson) in this issue, v1.2 of AL-Go will spawn a new PowerShell window elevated when trying to run from VS Code - instead of using the VS Code runner.

on @BusinessCentralGeek - the localDevEnv now includes a text:

NOTE: You need to have Docker installed, configured and be able to create Business Central containers for this to work.
If this fails, you can setup a cloud based development environment by running cloudDevEnv.ps1

and I am also working on supporting ACIs (Azure Container Instances) and Azure VMs for people having problems running docker on their machine. Unfortunately, we are seeing an increasingly number of problems with defender and Windows 10 (even some Windows 11).

Could you try to run:

Import-Module Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive

on your machine?
Which error is returned?

Thanks

from al-go.

In the end, there is something wrong with the machine - or some module installed, which prevents Expand-Archive to run.
You can also download and install 7zip (from https://www.7-zip.org/download.html), then the code will bypass Expand-Archive (and be faster).

from al-go.

I get no error when i run the Import-Module Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive command.
I will try to download and install 7zip and see what happens then.

from al-go.

I encountered the same error when running localDevEnv.ps1

Expand-7zipArchive : The 'Expand-Archive' command was found in the module 'Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive', but the module could not be 
loaded. For more information, run 'Import-Module Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive'.

When I run Import-Module Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive I get the following error

Import-LocalizedData : Cannot find the Windows PowerShell data file 'ArchiveResources.psd1' in directory 
'C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive\en-GB\', or in any parent culture directories.

I have 7zip installed

from al-go.

Interestingly, when I run localDevEnv.ps1 within a standalone powershell window I don't get the error and it uses 7zip

So it seems the error only occurs when running localDevEnv.ps1 from within VSCode integrated powershell terminal like is shown in the scenario steps screenshots

from al-go.

Same here, works in Powershell but not in the terminal section of VS Code.

Hi, I can´t get pass 'Removing BcContainerHelper' step. Tried from VSCode terminal and from PowerShell with no luck. The image is pulled but the problem is building the container. Tried running 'uninstall-module bccontainerhelper' before the scipt but with no luck.

from al-go.

That seems to be a local problem - a restart of the host will probably solve this.

from al-go.

Thanks for the quick reply. I´ve already restarted the machine several times, also reinstalled docker. When the error occurs docker wouldn´t start and need to uninstall it again every time it fails to create the container.
With this type of scripts I have no problem and the container works fine:

I believe "driver "windowsfilter" failed to remove root
filesystem: failed to detach VHD: failed to detach virtual disk: The device is not ready.: rename" is the problem but have no clue on how to solve it.
Some more info if it helps:

After reading this thread https://github.com/microsoft/navcontainerhelper/issues/2086

I could finally create it by turning off Windows Defender antivirus... At last..., I should have read the thread and try it sooner.
