Original title: ERROR: Exception calling "Start" with "0" argument(s): "The directory name is invalid"

What You Are Seeing?

The directory name is invalid error when i install my chocolatey package with Chocolatey v.0.10.1
It seem that chocolatey v.0.10.1 download my package here:
C:\Users\xxxmyusernamexxx\AppData\Local\Temp\chocolatey\chocolatey
But use this path to install it:
C:\Users\xxxmyusernamexxx\AppData\Local\Temp\chocolatey\

What is Expected?

Package installation to complete.
The same package install successfully with Chocolatey v.0.10.0

How Did You Get This To Happen? (Steps to Reproduce)

Install started with:
choco install DSAP.RMQ.VS2012 --allow-empty-checksums --execution-timeout=27000

Here is my chocolate package "DSAP.RMQ.VS2012" content:
$packageName = 'DSAP.RMQ.VS2012'
$url = 'xxxmyurlxxx/en_visual_studio_premium_2012_x86_web_installer_2599080.exe'
$silentArgs = "/S /Passive /NoRestart /ProductKey xxxmyproductkeyxxx"
$fileType = 'EXE'

try {
Install-ChocolateyPackage $packageName $fileType $silentArgs $url

} catch {
throw $_.Exception
}

We typically want the full output log please including configuration values.

It's possible the fix we implemented for #908 was only a partial fix and caused this issue.

When seen in other methods, ensure that it replaces the value appropriately.

Only remove the file path from the double chocolatey folder in the temp directory when a file exists at that location.

Generate the ignore after the file location has been determined.

The workaround for this is to explicitly set the cacheLocation - choco config set cacheLocation value

togakangaroo · 2017-05-15T22:41:14Z

hmm...I'm still getting this even on v0.10.5. I've run

choco config set cacheLocation $env:TEMP/chocolatey

and I've verified its set correctly with choco config get cacheLocation. Still, upgrading ilspy gives me this error.

@togakangaroo you see this because you specifically set the cacheLocation that way. Don't. ;)

togakangaroo · 2017-05-15T22:52:46Z

Wait I'm confused. I was having the issue already and thought that's what I was supposed to do. So how do I understand it now?

choco config set cacheLocation c:\programdata\choco-cache is more appropriate.

ferventcoder · 2017-05-15T22:55:02Z

If you have the full log file, I think we will see your issue is specifically with setting "/" versus "\" - not all tools in Windows know how to deal with the forward slash. Best not to have that be a path setting.

ferventcoder · 2017-05-15T22:55:34Z

Actually, please file another issue about normalizing the paths of settings. Thanks!

togakangaroo · 2017-05-16T15:11:37Z

Ok, Will do, but the above fix didn't work

@togakangaroo please provide a full gist of debug / verbose output. The log file actually captured this for your already, so we'll just need to see all the detailed output as it will be more helpful than the default informational output.
