Error when installing Subkey #8131

centrifugenoder · 2021-02-16T04:11:41Z

Hey,
I am new to substrate and programming and I am constantly running into the same error when trying installing subkey to generate some keys for a node. I have tried to install subkey following the step in the Substrate Developer Hub but I am not being able to complete the installation. The error is the following:

Thank you for the help :).

apopiak · 2021-02-16T09:14:58Z

This is due to some dependency problem with bitvec. See ferrilab/bitvec#105 (comment)
Solution in case you're building from source: cargo update -p funty --precise 1.1.0

bkchr · 2021-02-16T09:21:54Z

Please use:
cargo install --force subkey --git https://github.com/paritytech/substrate --version 2.0.0 --locked

centrifugenoder · 2021-02-16T15:06:03Z

You are the god of programming @bkchr. Thank tou for your help

Output of cargo install --force subkey --git https://github.com/paritytech/substrate --version 2.0.0 --locked:

bkchr · 2021-07-02T14:27:04Z

@pepa65 use

cargo install --force subkey --git https://github.com/paritytech/substrate --tag=v3.0.0 --locked

pepa65 · 2021-07-03T02:34:14Z

Thanks, that totally worked! It might be good to put this somewhere in the readme..!
And here: https://substrate.dev/docs/en/knowledgebase/integrate/subkey#install-with-cargo

@nukemandan @jimmychu0807 ^^

nuke-web3 · 2021-07-03T05:33:50Z

So I guess the tag flag looks for the overall tags of substrate.

subkey is version 2.0.1
https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/blob/master/bin/utils/subkey/Cargo.toml#L3
This is what the docs instruct to use already actually. I think that is better practice than a tag?

Happy to go with either, let me know what you think is best.

jimmychu0807 · 2021-07-05T04:41:22Z

I also tried installing subkey this morning using the instructions from our docs.

cargo install --force subkey --git https://github.com/paritytech/substrate --version 2.0.1 --locked

This works fine for me.

pepa65 · 2021-07-05T05:01:00Z

I tried that again, cargo install --force subkey --git https://github.com/paritytech/substrate --version 2.0.1 --locked and now got:

    Updating git repository `https://github.com/paritytech/substrate`
error: failed to parse manifest at `/home/pp/.cargo/git/checkouts/substrate-7e08433d4c370a21/fc49802/Cargo.toml`

Caused by:

  consider adding `cargo-features = ["resolver"]` to the manifest

nuke-web3 · 2021-07-05T15:55:13Z

I think you have a too old version of rust toolchain. I believe no less than 1.51 is needed. Best to use rustup update to latest stable and nightly.
If this still gives issues, you may need to clear the installation Dir of build artifacts for thus and try again with the docs v2.0.1 version

In any case, let us know so we can update the docs to avoid this for others 🙏🏼

pepa65 · 2021-07-06T01:37:11Z

My toolchain is probably not up to date, but @bkchr's command worked flawlessly, so it seems to be more robust.
