`validateHasCargo` keep failing on macOS

[setoelkahfi]

Probably related: #9

I keep getting Failed to run 'cargo --version'. You probably don't have 'cargo' executable in PATH error on MacOS while the printed patch definetely has .cargo/bin in it. Any clue?

My gradle file:

val libraries = arrayOf("crate_networking.so")
val cargoArguments = arrayOf("-p", "crate_networking")

cargoNdk {
    module = "../../lib/crate_networking"  // Directory containing Cargo.toml
    librariesNames = arrayListOf(*libraries)
    extraCargoBuildArguments = arrayListOf(*cargoArguments)
    verbose = true
}

I'm also having this issue after upgrading to the latest Android Studio Ladybug | 2024.2.1 Patch 1 on our project https://github.com/stadiamaps/ferrostar.

Even modified the PATH to the exact $HOME/.cargo/bin and same result. Cargo's definitely in the $PATH and the only thing that changed was upgrading Android Studio.

Do you still maintain this? @willir

[Archdoog]

Did some exploring, but still haven't figured out a solution.

Notes from debugging

I built out this to very simply test the issue in the project I'm working on.

tasks.register("checkCargo", Exec) {
    workingDir '../common'
    commandLine 'sh', '-c', "cargo --version"
}

This task fails with "No such file or directory", similarly not finding sh nor cargo. Removing the workingDir '../common' fixes the problem and sh & cargo can be found. With workingDir, I get "No such file or directory".

This only happens from Android Studio's gradle run. ./gradlew doesn't experience this issue and I can even run ./gradlew buildCargoNdkRelease successfully. Unfortunately, since the cargoNdk task is tied to build, I still can't actually build the project as a whole.

Some potentially related issues

• https://issuetracker.google.com/u/1/issues/217444607
• Pass-through Environment Variables to Gradle Daemon Processes gradle/gradle#10483
• Gradle is not able to run docker command from cli on macOS gradle/gradle#28860

Will keep working and report back here once I figure out what's messed up.

That's incredibly strange. It feels like it basically has to be an Android Studio configuration issue, since it works with gradlew on the terminal.

I heard one other report of a user encountering this by the way. Unfortunately I couldn't get any useful debugging information out of them beyond that eventually they got it working. I do know that the user was using some older version of Android Studio initially, and that they ultimately succeeded building with Koala. However, I don't remember if they solved the cargo path issue before or after the Android Studio upgrade. They reported that they had installed Rust via rustup.

I have been able to use the same Android Studio build as @Archdoog without issue. And yesterday I upgraded to Ladybug Patch 2 without incident (builds still working within Android Studio).

As far as I can tell, my local builds are using the Temurin JDK 17, and I'm using that for Gradle as well.

I've installed Rust via rustup.

This is interesting. I do have a warning from the Android studio that I have a mismatched JDK setting. I'll retake a look at this.

@setoelkahfi I'm not sure what the root of the issue is, but running Android Studio from a terminal with open -na "Android Studio.app" successfully loads the PATH for me, I guess I'll be satisfied with this for now.

That works for me too.. Super weird! Some people had success running ./gradlew --stop when encountering a similar issue observed directly when using ./gradlew.

Looking at open -na that's simply just saying open a new instance of the application "Android Studio". I wonder what varies between this and simply clicking the Android Studio app icon.

Hi, I currently don't have the capacity to investigate the issue :-(
But I can accept a PR if you know how to fix it.

[ianthetechie]

Thanks for the response @willir! We're going to open an issue upstream with Google about this (can post a link here later). So far it's looking like the issue is not specific to this Gradle plugin but is most likely a bug in Android Studio (given that the same error can be reproduced with just a vanilla commandLine invocation: #24 (comment)).

I would also double-check how you set the PATH env variable. The way you call programs from the terminal and not are different, and it is possible to have PATH set from the terminal, but not when you open the program from a normal GUI.

[setoelkahfi]

Ok, open -na "Android Studio.app" does the trick.

You need to run on JDK 17
