Hello,
I'm new to Lua and I need to install luasocket to perform GET request to a HTTP server.
I'm facing an issue (which seems to be quite common) when trying to install luasocket thanks to luarocks.
I'm running Windows Terminal with Windows PowerShell (as user)
luarocks install luasocket
Installing https://luarocks.org/luasocket-3.0rc1-2.src.rock
Error: Could not fetch rock file: Failed creating temporary directory luarocks-rock-luasocket-3.0rc1-2: Failed setting permission exec for all
(same problem also occurs when trying as Administrator)
My install is Windows 10. lua53.dll lua53.exe luac53.exe wlua53.exe are in C:\lua they came from Lua Binaries (unzip rename directory to lua and move to C:\lua)
luarocks.exe and luarocks-admin.exe is also in C:\lua
it comes from http://luarocks.github.io/luarocks/releases/luarocks-3.7.0-windows-64.zip
C:\lua have been added to system PATH.
Running luarocks display the following configuration
Configuration:
Lua:
Version : 5.3
Interpreter: C:\lua/lua53.exe (ok)
LUA_DIR : C:\lua (ok)
LUA_BINDIR : C:\lua (ok)
LUA_INCDIR : (not found)
****************************************
Use the command
luarocks config variables.LUA_INCDIR <dir>
to fix the location
****************************************
LUA_LIBDIR : C:\lua (ok)
Configuration files:
System : C:/Program Files/luarocks/config-5.3.lua (not found)
User : C:/Users/scell/AppData/Roaming/luarocks/config-5.3.lua (ok)
Rocks trees in use:
C:\Users\scell\AppData\Roaming/luarocks ("user")
C:/Users/scell/AppData/Roaming/luarocks/config-5.3.lua
looks like
lua_interpreter = "lua53.exe"
variables = {
LUA_BINDIR = "C:\\lua",
LUA_DIR = "C:\\lua",
LUA_LIBDIR = "C:\\lua"
}
Any idea what is wrong with my install ?
Kind regards
