I try to install github desktop via chocolatey (vagrant provisioning) on my windows virtual machine. The installation process runs until the actual github installation. The error message looks like this:

Download of GitHubSetup.exe (663.49 KB) completed

WARNING: Ignoring checksums due to feature checksumFiles turned off or option --ignore-checksums set.

Installing github...

github has been installed.

Microsoft's ClickOnce framework is downloading and extracting the ~110 MB install files.

This may take several minutes or longer. Please wait...

The installation hangs at this point. I read about this issue at the official chocolatey webpage . How can I workaround this problem?

  • the installation works when executed during VM runtime in a ps console – Maximilian Feb 28 '17 at 12:36
  • Newest vagrant has some fixes in 1.9.2 that may affect this for the better. – ferventcoder Feb 28 '17 at 19:24
  • this does not change the issue – Maximilian Mar 08 '17 at 12:16

    Just thought of this - are you specifying interactive in the shell options? Here is an example - https://github.com/chocolatey/chocolatey-test-environment/blob/10a32f63cc4ed4ef14251ceadf5253e358ec32f7/Vagrantfile#L120 – ferventcoder Mar 08 '17 at 13:18
  • this helps to install github, but the provisioning script does not finish after installation. the provisioning says: ==> default: github has been installed. ==> default: Microsoft's ClickOnce framework is downloading and extracting the ~110 MB install files. ==> default: This may take several minutes or longer. Please wait... but does not finish – Maximilian Mar 08 '17 at 14:38

    Just a note - if you look at the Chocolatey community package page for this package - https://chocolatey.org/packages/github, there may be a red dot up by the name. If you click on that it will show you the verifier's failing tests. It runs vagrant - it has had the same issue you are running into in the past. If you are able to figure out why it is failing, I would share that with the package maintainers so they can get that fixed. HTH – ferventcoder Mar 08 '17 at 14:44
