Error downloading electron-builder required tools files #1859

evollhhan · 2017-07-25T11:40:10Z

Version: 19.12.0

For some reason, the building process could not download winCodeSign, nsis-resources and other files automatically, always get timeout errors(maybe blocked by some wall). Could I just download the electron-builder-binaries zip from github or some other sites and extract to a specific folder so i can skip the download process when building my app? Thx

develar · 2017-07-25T11:46:38Z

Yes — https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder-binaries/releases

Unpack using 7z to cache dir.

Many thanks for prompt reply.

Zip file (92MB) to extract instead of tedios downloading: https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0Bz3JwZ-jqfROc1FNT25FeTVoRWM

Or 7z archive (40MB) https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0Bz3JwZ-jqfRORjZTa3FPWUpJT0E

Hi,

I also face a similar problem.
I downloaded all dependencies from https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0Bz3JwZ-jqfROc1FNT25FeTVoRWM

keep that in my project/resources folder.
when I try to create and cache/electron-builder and cp to it I am getting following error

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '/Users/develar/Desktop'
How to fix this error

Thanks
Jk

mark & thx!

ZhouHansen · 2019-02-01T09:56:17Z

@develar Could you please explain this question in detail?

where are these tool files should be put in ??

I use windows, and the files unzipped from the winCodeSign-2.4.0 which I downloaded manually are below:

And in %LOCALAPPDATA%\electron-builder\cache, there's a winCodeSign directory, which files should I put into the winCodeSign directory?

And after put the right thing to winCodeSign directory, when I run npm run builder, will electron-builder still download the winCodeSign automatically?

@SaromChars 新年好！能告诉我怎么解决这个问题么？我的微信：vm140706

Gabrielkaliboy · 2019-06-19T01:20:17Z

Can you change these files to another storage location?Current storage locations are painful for Chinese developers

BadReese · 2020-02-01T15:40:59Z

In China , simply use command ELECTRON_MIRROR=https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/electron/ npm run dist

Zip file (92MB) to extract instead of tedios downloading: https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0Bz3JwZ-jqfROc1FNT25FeTVoRWM

Or 7z archive (40MB) https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0Bz3JwZ-jqfRORjZTa3FPWUpJT0E

this file isn't available anymore. how can I get it?
and how to skip the download stage and read from the cache?
thanx for the great efforts

I have solved this issue by

Dont create seperate folder "nsis-resources" in cache directory
Extracted "nsis-resources-3.4.1.7z" folder should be placed inside "nsis" folder inside cache directory
C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\electron-builder\cache
winCodeSign\winCodeSing-2.6.0
nsis\nsis-3.0.4.1
nsis\nsis-resources-3.4.0

@develar It would be very useful if this information could be included in the documentation. I had to spend hours searching to deal with this.

There also doesn't seem to be any easy way to get the latest release of each of the binaries without manually going through the github releases and downloading each one. It would be nice if there was a page that linked to the latest release of each package.

thisang · 2024-01-29T03:49:19Z

I've got the same problem.

⨯ Get "https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder-binaries/releases/download/wine-4.0.1-mac/wine-4.0.1-mac.7z": dial tcp 20.205.243.166:443: connect: operation timed out

so I downloaded this file and unzipped to /Libary/Caches/electron-builder/wine/wine-4.0.1-mac, when I running it again, it shows:

⨯ cannot execute cause=exit status 1
errorOut=wine: /Users/xxx/Library/Caches/electron-builder/wine/wine-4.0.1-mac/wine-home is not owned by you

I changed the permissions on that directory to everyone can read and write，but it does'nt work。

what should I do？

DanLowo · 2024-02-20T05:18:03Z

For those having this issue on Windows. It turns out the Windows firewall blocks requests to objects.github for some reason.

You can resolve this by turning off the firewall either public or private (depending on your network setup)
