Basically most of the bin\grav and bin\gpm functions are working fine under windows. And I’m using some small batch scripts to call them. But using 'gpm install ', I just noticed that I can in fact install a plugin and also the installer seems to notice when a plugin has already been installed. But when I run a ‘gpm index’ all the plugins are shown as (not installed). Also the gpm upgrade does not work because it claims to find no upgradable plugins.
Another problem: After every selfupgrade the bin folder is missing.
It uses the Grav API for reading the installed plugins so it’s not file system based. Are you able to install manually the plugins and do they show up installed after you did? Is this an issue only with the batch script you are running?
Also you can use the option -y to answer yes to all questions automatically and -q to get a quiet response, that’s what I would do if I were running a script. the y automatically knows the best route to take based on already existing plugins/symbolically linked plugins but you might want to try it manually first.
Yes, grav works fine here even if ‘gpm index’ shows all plugins as ‘not installed’. 'gpm install ’ also works as expected. Odd, but then it’s not really a problem, just a little windows flaw
I am having a similar problem on windows 8.1. I’m running php version 5.6.3. Tested both manually installing plugins and git bash, but the results were the same. The plugins and themes install without fail, but do not appear as installed when running the bin/gpm index command.
