Unable to register environment - during installation error #11148

That is definitely an odd error, and we didn't see this during our QA process. Can you verify if the ~/.conda folder already exists? If so, is the environments.txt present, but not writable? Have you had an anaconda installation earlier that may have left that file in a strange state? It looks like your installation is otherwise intact. Can you create new environments?

FYI, I observed an identical error to the above, and my ~/.conda folder did not appear on first run. I ran the install script again with the -u option, then created a conda environment, and the ~/.conda folder finally appeared. |

Hi, Recently, I was trying to install the
Did you install into the same path as before when using the Thanks, Maryo. |

@MaryoHg yes, the install path was identical. My command was the same except for the addition of |

I had the same error. |

Thanks @dustinfreeman. After manually source the base conda environment (I do not initialize it from start) and creating some environments without any issue, I realized the hidden folders were created. So I guess I'm fine until now. Hope all goes OK. |

same issue with latest miniconda, currently switching to the old version installer would help. |

I just experienced this issue while trying to install Anaconda3 on a Centos7 machine. Anaconda is already installed for a different user on this same machine, but there shouldn't be any path overlaps with existing installs. I first attempted to fix this issue by using that -u option, but it still couldn't create the directory. The .conda folder only appeared after running the following, similar to @Furqan136 : source anaconda3/bin/activate |

Try before install create .conda path in the same path will install anaconda

I have the same error with Anaconda3-2019.07-Linux-x86_64.sh. I had a previous Anaconda 2 installation. I see that ~/.conda exists now after creation of 2 environments. I don't know if the .conda folder existed before/after install but I don't see .anaconda. |
|
Note that I had the same problem using Docker 19.* but not Docker 18.*, creating the .conda folder before executing the command fixed it weirdly. |
|
I have encountered the same issue except on a windows 64-bit install. Preparing transaction: ...working... done The bottom line is that I can not install Anaconda successfully. Help appreciated. |
|
I am trying to use Conda to install a package that has failed under other installation methods. When installing Anaconda I received the same error as the OP: The ~/.conda folder was created, but is empty. How can I test if this Anaconda installation worked? Does anyone have a solution for this error? |

I can also confirm the issue. Trying to install Anaconda on an EC2 instance using the following steps: ANACONDA_INST_DIR=$HOME/anaconda3
rm -rf $ANACONDA_INST_DIR
rm -rf $HOME/tmp
mkdir $HOME/tmp
ANACONDA_INST_NAME=Anaconda3-2019.07-Linux-x86_64.sh
wget https://repo.anaconda.com/archive/${ANACONDA_INST_NAME} -O $HOME/tmp/$ANACONDA_INST_NAME
bash $HOME/tmp/$ANACONDA_INST_NAME -f -b -p $ANACONDA_INST_DIRended up with the following: If I create the directory |

I had this problem on Mac OS 10.14.6. Creating the ~/.conda directory before running the script fixed it. I deleted the ~/.conda and ~/miniconda directories and re-ran the installation script. The error re-appeared. |
|
First way: Firstly, run this command to remove anaconda3 folder:
Then, remove this line from your .bash_profile (or .bashrc):
Then reinstall anaconda :) Second way: Create
file and change the owner to drb from root user. If you don't have /Users/drb/.conda/environments.txt file, create it and change the owner to drb |

Have the same issue. MacOS Mojave 10.14.5 Same error as everyone above. The mention folder/ file not created. |

This seems like it's probably a race condition causing a permissions problem, but I haven't managed to isolate it yet. The code that is doing the registration (creation of that folder and file) is not run in parallel: https://github.com/conda/conda/blob/4.7.10/conda/core/link.py#L636-L642 The error you see is this one: https://github.com/conda/conda/blob/4.7.10/conda/core/path_actions.py#L955-L961 The path unfortunately does not appear to be configurable, because all of the calls to this function have no parameter: https://github.com/conda/conda/blob/4.7.10/conda/core/envs_manager.py#L21 As a workaround, please take the advice of many others here: |
Same occurs to me during installation and freedom9393 solution works. Thank you all |
|
I can replicate this by running conda in stall in a Docker image. In an Ubuntu 16.04 image. After the install and update however the environments.txt file does actually get created. |
|
This will be fixed in conda 4.7.12 and later, but unfortunately we can't retroactively fix existing installers. If you see this problem, please take the advice of many others here: mkdir ~/.conda and ignore the warning - that should allow you to move forward. |
creating the ~/.conda made the installation run without any errors/warnings. But I still can't directly run conda or anaconda-navigator. [edit: Solution] |
|
I had this problem today installing Miniconda3 ; it appears the miniconda installer is still at version 4.7.10, as can be seen at https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda_hashes.html or by doing after downloading the installer from https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html. |

Yes, in the next 1-2 weeks |

Actual Behavior
I followed instructions to download anaconda using command line from here.
I accepted the license terms & confirmed the default location
~/anaconda3for installationEverything looks okay, except
