diesel - cli "Unable to open the database file"

[kollapsderwellenfunktion]

I have a postgres installation (9.5) and was successfully able to connect to it by using the postgres crate. i was also successfully able to use diesel with sqlite. but when i try to use diesel-cli to setup a database i allways get the error "Unable to open the database file".

I'm using

diesel 0.12.0
rustc 1.18.0-nightly (5e122f59b 2017-04-01)
psql (9.5.6)

i tried many combinations to set DATABASE_URL like

echo DATABASE_URL=postgres://planb:*@localhost/planb > .env
diesel setup --database-url postgres://planb:*@localhost/planb

with or without quotes, port etc. tried to switch of ssl on postgres too. postgresql log gives no output.

a simple

let conn = Connection::connect("postgresql://planb:*@localhost", TlsMode::None).unwrap();

using the postgres crate(0.14.0) works without problems

i cloned this repository and build redis-cli by myself.(had to deactivate sqlite feature which seems to be broken) and now it works.

i installed the non working version with cargo install diesel_cli

strange. but it now works for me.

Same here...

I ran cargo install --force diesel_cli again and the error disappeared.

Maybe it is worthwhile noting that I installed diesel_cli prior to adding diesel to any Cargo.toml.

I am also running postgres 9.5.5
