Plugin installation failed, rolling back; Could not delete

[Tanoro]

I am attempting to install on a Vagrant 2.2.4 VM running Ubuntu/bionic64 (Windows 10 Pro host machine). Other packages install fine, but this one returns "Plugin installation failed," attempts to roll back, and then fails to delete the contents of its installation directory.

Same problem here.

Composer version 1.8.6 2019-06-11 15:03:05

$ vagrant version
Installed Version: 2.2.4
Latest Version: 2.2.5

[jakkyl]

Same, any fixes?

[sachinsangde19]

Any update here?

[poluhovich]

I have the same issue.

[piotr-cz]

Same here, btw I'm using Vagrant with homestead box (8.0.1) on VirtualBox (6.0.10).
May be related to laravel/homestead#1240

[hiepnsx]

Have same issue.
workaround with

"composer/installers": "dev-master#v1.7.0"

[charlyox]

Exact same problem and environment, except for composer/installers version, which is 1.7.0.

[nessunluogo]

Same problem here using last composer version (1.9.3), composer/installers 1.7.0.

Cleared composer cache and vendor folder, set process-timeout 9999 and 4GB RAM to vagrant machine, working on Drupal 8.

Using @hiepnsx workaround causes dependencies conflict (drupal/core-recommended 8.8.2 requires composer/installers v1.7.0).

[sachinsangde19]

I had this issue. I solved it using the following command shared here

composer install --no-plugins --no-scripts

[nessunluogo]

I had this issue. I solved it using the following command shared here

composer install --no-plugins --no-scripts

This worked for me! Thanks!

Same problem here with Composer 1.9.3 running inside virtual machine (VirtualBox + Debian) created with Vagrant 2.2.7 (WSL env).

I have to run Composer outside the VM (with shared folders) to work.

I had this issue. I solved it using the following command shared here

composer install --no-plugins --no-scripts

Unfortunately this is not a solution because plugins are necessary in many cases.

@dreamon11

Try this. Solved it for me.

• Change the VM to use nfs (and reload the VM).
• Inside the VM:
  • Delete the composer cache with composer clearcache
  • Rerun composer install

Credit to jimuelpalaca.

Problem appears to be related to the speed of Virtualbox shared folders. I'd guess that the vagrant composer cache is getting corrupted.

Edit: Or, according to svpernova09, maybe it's a simple race condition in composer...

@kentr

Thanks for help.

Unfortunately, I can't get nfs to work with WSL :/

$ vagrant up

sh: 1: cscript: not found
It seems that you don't have the privileges to change the firewall rules. NFS will not work without that firewall
changes. Execute the following commands via cmd as administrator:
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="VagrantWinNFSd-1.4.0" dir="in" action=allow protocol=any program="\home\xxx\.vagrant.d\gems\2.4.9\gems\vagrant-winnfsd-1.4.0\bin\winnfsd.exe" profile=any
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="VagrantWinNFSd-1.4.0" dir="out" action=allow protocol=any program="\home\xxx\.vagrant.d\gems\2.4.9\gems\vagrant-winnfsd-1.4.0\bin\winnfsd.exe" profile=any
If you are an Windows XP user run the following command instead:
netsh firewall add allowedprogram "\home\xxx\.vagrant.d\gems\2.4.9\gems\vagrant-winnfsd-1.4.0\bin\winnfsd.exe" VagrantWinNFSd-1.4.0 ENABLE

Anyone still experiencing this? I guess it's just a vagrant filesystem issue but the question is if it's really common we can maybe try to work around it somehow by delaying plugin initialization if it fails or something like that?

Me. I run composer inside a VirtualBox on a mounted SMB filesystem and needed to add --no-plugins for installation to succeed, so it's more a VirtualBox rather than Vagrant. See Jeroen-G/laravel-packager#101 on how it was 'solved'

[tabascoterrier]

@Seldaek yes, me also.

Closing here, please track composer/composer#9627 (comment) which is where the problem should be fixed if at all.
