Error adding remote workers on Windows

[ivborissov]

Didn't have this error with 0.5 and faced it on 0.6. Trying to add remote worker on windows machine using HTCondor/ClusterManagers and facing the following error:
Error: ERROR:Unable to read host:port string from worker. Launch command exited with error?

In logs I have:

fatal: error thrown and no exception handler available.
Base.InitError(mod=:Pkg, error=UndefVarError(var=:UV_ENOBUFS))

need to backport #22457, believe that would fix this (try with a nightly)

[ivborissov]

thanks. In 0.7-dev I have the following error in logs:
Error: ERROR:Unable to read host:port string from worker. Launch command exited with error?
Base.InitError(mod=:Pkg, error=ErrorException("unable to retrieve home directory"))

Solved the issue (on 0.6) by adding USERPROFILE env variable
