raco distribute errors due to suspiciously long destination filename

[gussmith23]

Thanks for all the work you all do!

What version of Racket are you using?
8.11 [cs]

What program did you run?

# Commands run:
  mkdir -p lakeroad/deps/lakeroad/
  raco exe -o lakeroad-single-solver bin/main.rkt
  raco distribute lakeroad/deps/lakeroad/ lakeroad-single-solver

What should have happened?

raco distribute should have exited without error

If you got an error message, please include it here.

See above.

Please include any other relevant details

Replicates on Mac and Ubuntu

[gussmith23]

Strangely, even after erroring, the binary that's produced (at least on my Mac) works at least somewhat as expected.

[sorawee]

Here's a minimal test:

1. Create a file racket/utils.rkt with the following content

#lang racket
(require racket/runtime-path)
(define-runtime-path PROJ_DIR "..")

2. In the current directory, run

$ raco exe -o exec racket/utils.rkt
$ raco distribute something exec

This produces the above error:

copy-file: cannot open destination file

  system error: File name too long; errno=63

which kinda makes sense that there's gonna be an issue. I guess a smarter distributor may be able to avoid the problem? But at the very least I expect that if the above usage is not supported, it should provide a clearer error.

Thanks @sorawee!

FWIW, your offline suggestion of making the output location of distribute somewhere in ../ works, though now i get a new errror from rosette:

copy-directory/files: encountered path that is neither file nor directory

   body of "/Applications/Racket v8.9/collects/raco/raco.rkt"
   body of "/Applications/Racket v8.9/collects/raco/main.rkt"

this is probably unrelated to the issue at hand though

[sorawee]

You need to install the executables of all solvers (that you require) to /Users/gus/rosette/bin. Arguably, Rosette should not mandate you to do that (since it's actually possible to set up a solver at a different path), but this is how Rosette currently works.
