I was trying to create windows .exe file to install moodle local plugin.
Is this doable installing plugin with .exe file?
Appreciate your suggestions. Reference to documentation access!
Are you trying to install Moodle? There are packages available for installing Moodle on a Windows machine:
https://docs.moodle.org/39/en/Complete_install_packages_for_Windows
Otherwise, using an exe to install a local plugin doesn't make any sense. You just need to copy the code to the local folder. Or unzip the code into a local folder.
Then either upgrade via your site yourmoodlesite/admin/ or use the command line:
php admin/cli/upgrade.php
See https://docs.moodle.org/39/en/Administration_via_command_line#Upgrading
I have been trying to use the Arduino extension for VS Code in Ubuntu 18, but when I execute the initialize command, I get the error "Cannot find the Arduino IDE. Please specify the arduino.path in the user settings". So I wrote every path that comes out when executing the command "whereis arduino", I've also tried leaving the box empty (in theory that makes VS Code search for the IDE) and reinstalling both the Arduino IDE and VS Code several times, without any result. Does somebody knows a possible fix for this issue?
Download and extract the appropriate Arduino version according to your need from here, and install it using command sudo ./install. In my case, I have downloaded Arduino 1.8.6 Linux 64 Bit .
Goto Files -> Preferences -> Settings, Open Settings(JSON) as shown below.
Change arduino.path to the path location of extracted Arduino file. In my case it is /home/user/Downloads/arduino-1.8.6 and arduino.commandPath to arduino.
OR
For those who installed Arduino through snap platform refer this post.
Your Settings JSON file should look like this.
{
"arduino.path": "/home/user/Downloads/arduino-1.8.6",
"arduino.commandPath": "arduino",
}
Save and restart.
It's Done!!
Good Luck
P.S.:Add arduino.commandPath if not already exist and should point to Arduino executable present in the arduino.path.
Even when its on mac, someone can find this helpful as I had the same problem and found this thread. On MAC I have solved this one with arduino-cli and following:
install homebrew (if you have, proceed to step 2)
install arduino-cli with brew install arduino-cli
find where the arduino-cli is installed. Usually (on mac) it will be /opt/homebrew/bin/arduino-cli... Which means, if you run the command arduino-cli, it will execute this script... You can find the location with:
which arduino-cli (I have zsh, I am not aware if it will be the same for older bash, probably it will, I am not so skilled in this one, but you can try to use find instead of which. But which is working for me
lets assume you have the path, for me it was /opt/homebrew/bin/arduino-cli
proceed to VScode, go to settings (well, lets assume we will be working with the json settings
in my case, the input is following:
"arduino.useArduinoCli": true,
"arduino.path": "/opt/homebrew/bin/",
"arduino.commandPath": "arduino-cli"
Note, even when the path to arduino-cli is /opt/homebrew/bin/arduino-cli, we are removing the script name from the path... But we are adding this to the commandPath
I found that running whereis arduino or which arduino gave me /usr/local/bin/arduino. However, this didn't make Visual Studio Code happy. After some more digging, it turns out that that path is just a symlink to /opt/arduino-1.8.13. (Use ls -la /usr/local/bin/arduino to see where the symlink points to on your system.)
Also of note: be sure to give the path to the directory, not to the actual executable. For instance, in my case, the proper path was /opt/arduino-1.8.13 NOT /opt/arduino-1.8.13/arduino!
tl;dr
Use /opt/arduino-1.8.13, but be sure to update the version number to whatever is installed on your system.
This might not work for everyone, but the problem for me was using Visual Studio Code for flatpak. There was probably a better way to fix this, but the easiest way to do it (for me) was to install the binary from their website.
Go to "User Settings" > "Extensions" > "arduino.commandPath" > change it to "arduino_debug.exe"
In my case whereis arduino gave me /usr/bin/arduino and /usr/share/arduino, however putting either of them in the arduino.path didn't work.
Entering /usr/bin did the trick though. hope it helps!

I use Windows and I solved it as follows.
The problem is because you are using the new version Arduino IDE 2.x.x and it has another way to code its sketches and more (I don't know how to say it, I'm a beginner in this) or you haven't activated to use Arduino Cli at least, so -- ->
Intall Arduino 1.8.x. You can donwload it here: Arduino Software
Open your vscode, go to Files>preferences>settings and find your Arduino extension under "Extensions". and put the standard path for Arduino 1.8.x like: C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino (Remember this is where you installed the Arduino 1.8.x path) in "Arduino Path".
Next, you need to click on "Arduino: Use ArduinoCli" to link the Arduino extension to the correct version (Arduino Legacy is not allowed).
Arduino CLI option in vscode settings
Here's what fix my issue!
1st - Make sure you have the right path ("The path to the folder which contains the 'arduino.exe'", and not the path with the 'arduino.exe') copied to your Arduino Settings in VS Code.
2nd (The Actual Fix for me) - After installing the Arduino IDE and the VS Code extension RESTART you entire computer!! This somehow updates the Registry.
After which you can just Initialize your project, F1 - Arduino Initialize.
That's it enjoy and start up your Golden IoT project.
I tried a lot of methods to install, but the following log does not install.
I'm having a problem with other extensions not being installed. Is there a solution for this?
As you see the error there is a given paths, these are added into PATH but actually not exist in you system.
Remove them or create them.
I have some trouble when I want to add a database.
_dataBase = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QPSQL");
After calling this method I have an error:
QSqlDatabase: QPSQL driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLITE QMYSQL QMYSQL3 QODBC QODBC3 QPSQL QPSQL7
I include to PATH variable paths to:
PostgreSQL\9.3\bin
PostgreSQL\9.3\lib
PostgreSQL\9.3\include
Also I copy folder sqldrivers to Debug folder. Also tried to copy dlls drom this folder to Debug. Doesn't work either.
I came here googling because I had the same problem in Windows.
In my case to solve the issue I had to install PostgreSQL for Windows 32 bits since my Qt target was MinGW 32 bits.
Additionally, I had to add the PATH to the PostgreSQL bin and lib directories so Qt could find the right .dlls.
#SET PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\PostgreSQL\9.6\bin\;C:\Program Files (x86)\PostgreSQL\9.6\lib\;%PATH%
The PATH can be set before launching Qt Creator or using the Qt Creator itself via the Build Environment in the Projects pane.
Add the system variable QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 if you want to get full information of why the QPSQL driver has not been loaded.
Probably you will discover that Qt is not able to find it. Copy and paste the output here to know what exactly happens.
Use depends.exe on qsqlpsql.dll and found that this dll need libpq.dll from PostgreSQL\9.3\libfolder. Add libpq.dll to Debug folder and it works:)
Try pip install PyQt5 event if you already installed it using conda or installer. It helped me.
I got same problem with deploying Qt application (windeployqt didn't help). I had to copy more .dlls (libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll, libiconv-2.dll, libintl-8.dll, libpq.dll, libssl-1_1-x64.dll, libwinpthread-1.dll) from postgreSQL bin path (c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\12\bin) next to .exe file (according to dependency walker).
After I install a package in powershell by using
"choco install $package" where package is taken from a config file and would look like "WinRar" so I would be doing choco install WinRar, how do i get the exact path this package was just installed to?
For example when I am installing PhantomJS using this, it gets installed to C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\PhantomJS\tools\phantomjs-2.1.1-windows and I as the developer know that, but since I need to add this to the env path, depending on which version the install command installs, the path will be different. I need to get the exact path so i can set the environmental variable to right place.
PhantomJS is just one example, but a lot of packages get installed into directories where their version is apart of the path and getting the path from the powershell install scripts would really be helpful.
Is there anything like this available for the package manager? I assume figuring out where the package just got installed to should be possible because I see it displayed on my terminal window, just don't know how to access it in powershell.
Thanks.
Currently there is not a way, but there is a thought to maybe provide back a list of package results with that information (along with more). That is still in a feature request so look for it to be developed in the coming months.
You could parse the Chocolatey output to determine where Chocolatey saw things get installed and we are working to make that detection even better.
