Cargo does not compile code: no such file or directory

[greggawatt]

Cargo giving a weird error, following directions exactly from the rust book. My code is here if you want to test it out: https://github.com/greggawatt/rust-intro

Running OSX yosemite, zsh shell

cargo build --verbose
   Compiling hello_world v0.0.1 (file:///Users/gregg/Development/rust-intro)
     Running `rustc src/main.rs --crate-name hello_world --crate-type bin -g --out-dir /Users/gregg/Development/rust-intro/target --emit=dep-info,link -L dependency=/Users/gregg/Development/rust-intro/target -L dependency=/Users/gregg/Development/rust-intro/target/deps`
Could not compile `hello_world`.

Caused by:

It's also worth noting that when @greggawatt runs the rustc command by itself, it does work, so it's something weird in cargo

I believe this is a dupe of #987. Unfortunately I have not been able to track down why this is happening because I am unable to duplicate it myself. If you've got anything more to add to the thread though, please feel free to post a comment!

Would it be at least useful to improve the verbose output so we know what file or directory is not found?

[alexcrichton]

Unfortunately the only cause for "no such file or directory" when executing a process that I know of is that the executable rustc was not found. That's quite puzzling, however, because you clearly have rustc and it's in your PATH so I'm not quite sure what's going on :(

[greggawatt]

Was the other person running zsh? I know there are sometimes weird path issues there.

[alexcrichton]

It's not mentioned specifically, but I would suspect the answer would be yes.

I will try this in straight terminal and see what happens.
