Install-Package failed chocolatey provider

[pulporange]

Hi there i've tried to install ie. vlc and keepass package through Install-Package Multiple times [chocolatey provider]

• Windows 10 - Build 14393.51

• P$ Execution Policy RemoteSigned

• it builds flawlessly using the install wrapper provided by chocolatey "choco install"

• i've checked my hdd looking for filesystem corruption/bad sectors => nothing

• i've found that the apps based on ".exe" where not downloaded correctly / complete

• other packages ie: git, 7zip, notepad++,ccleaner where installed flawlessly with Install-Package

@pulporange, the Chocolatey provider under OneGet project is only a prototype as a proof of concept and Microsoft internal team does not maintain it. In this case, Rob Reynolds is developing the chocolatey provider: https://github.com/chocolatey/chocolatey-oneget.
Issue is tracked chocolatey-community/chocolatey-oneget#5

Hi @jianyunt i've build the c# project with VStudio => it creates a bunch of dll, future chocolatey provider for PackageManagement, correct me if i'm wrong
i've installed them using the p$ script provided on the github repo install-provider.ps1

Here is a result

PS C:\> Get-PackageProvider -ListAvailable

Choco                    1.0.0.0
chocolatey               1.0.0.0

msu                      3.0.0.0
NuGet                    2.8.5.206        Destination, ExcludeVersion, Scope, Headers, FilterOnTag, Contains, AllowP...

Programs                 3.0.0.0          IncludeWindowsInstaller, IncludeSystemComponent

Maybe i'm missing something but the the Register-PackageSource is not ok

PS C:\> Register-PackageSource -Name "chocolatey" -Location "http://chocolatey.org/api/v2/" -ProviderName "Choco" -Verbose
VERBOSE: Performing the operation "Register Package Source." on target "Package Source 'chocolatey'
(http://chocolatey.org/api/v2/) in provider 'Choco'.".

PS C:\> Get-PackageSource

nuget.org                        NuGet            False      https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json
PSGallery                        PowerShellGet    True       https://www.powershellgallery.com/api/v2/

It looks like Choco has not implemented OneGet/AddPackageSource() which supports Register-PackageSource cmdlet. @ferventcoder, any plan to support it?

[ferventcoder]

The source at that location is still behind and with where Garrett had left it at that point. We should support whatever is needed to make it work correctly.

[jianyunt]

@pulporange, can you try the ChocolateyGet provider instead to see if it satisfies your scenario.

[pulporange]

Hi @jianyunt Sorry for the late response, i'll give it a try this week-end
Thanks for the update on this

[pulporange]

I've tested it from provider install to app uninstall, it works like a charm
