Issue 1. Bootstrap. Fresh install from recipe at https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Build_from_source/Windows On win7 64bit Result: the script failed (wget crashed). Was not able to obtain logs (is there log file?) Issue 2. Usability. Continued by hand: - the kdeenv.bat hangs - kdeenv.ps1 executes and exists immediately. The only way for users is to browse to kdeenv.ps1 in powershell and execute. Issue 3. In the craft shell executed this and caused python 3.6 error. User should never see this kind of errors. Apparently the scraft scripts do not use exceptions well enough :) PS D:\Craft> craft craft Craft Root : D:\Craft Craft : R:\ Version : master ABI : windows-msvc2015_64-cl Svn directory : D:\craft\download\svn Git directory : Q:\ Download directory : D:\craft\download =============================================================================================== *** Handling package: dev-util/git, action: all *** *** Action: fetch for dev-util/git *** *** Action: unpack for dev-util/git *** expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\craft.py", line 443, in <module> success = main() File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\craft.py", line 431, in main if not run(package, action, tempArgs, package.children.values()): File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\craft.py", line 221, in run directTargets=directTargets): File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\craft.py", line 115, in handlePackage success = success and doExec(package, "unpack", continueFlag) File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\craft.py", line 95, in doExec ret = package.instance.execute(action) File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\Package\PackageBase.py", line 177, in execute return self.runAction(command) File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\Package\PackageBase.py", line 280, in runAction ok = getattr(self, functions[command])() File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\Source\MultiSource.py", line 48, in unpack return self.source.unpack(self) File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\Source\ArchiveSource.py", line 139, in unpack if not utils.unpackFile(CraftStandardDirs.downloadDir(), filename, self.workDir()): File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\utils.py", line 179, in unpackFile return un7zip(os.path.join(downloaddir, filename), workdir, ext) File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\utils.py", line 195, in un7zip if CraftCore.cache.checkCommandOutputFor(app, "-bs"): File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\Utils\CraftCache.py", line 119, in checkCommandOutputFor _, output = self.getCommandOutput(app, helpCommand) File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\Utils\CraftCache.py", line 102, in getCommandOutput app = self.findApplication(app) File "D:\Craft\craft-2017.12\bin\Utils\CraftCache.py", line 86, in findApplication appLocation = shutil.which(app, path=path) File "C:\Program Files\Python3\lib\shutil.py", line 1113, in which if os.path.dirname(cmd): File "C:\Program Files\Python3\lib\ntpath.py", line 242, in dirname return split(p)[0] File "C:\Program Files\Python3\lib\ntpath.py", line 204, in split p = os.fspath(p) TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType
The Path issue is apparently missing 7z. But it is installed and Craft never asked for it. Is there setting for the path? Adding path to 7z to PATH won't help because then craft needs 7za. But the 7-ZIP installer for Windows does not offer it, user needs to download extra archive with 7za.exe. Would craft be able to download proper copy of z7? Maybe it already does and I have not notice because process in bootstrap crashed.
Sounds like the download somehow failed an you ended in a undefined state of craft. Can you please start fresh.
And for logs, Craft saves log files to %USERPROFILE%/.craft

Reinstalling Craft helped.
