[GRASS-dev] 7.8.5 windows installer broken. How to find 7.8.4?

I just launched my spatial tech class today. Most people use Windows. I don’t and and can’t test it regularly, but haven’t worried much about it because so many people do use it.

Nobody could get the standard Windows install to work for GRASS 7.8.5 today. It simply launched a console with a bunch of error messages apparently, for everyone. I’m getting someone to send a screenshot so I can file a report.

People were having trouble with 7.8.5 in OSGEO4W too. It did install but had problems running for some people.

In the meantime, is there someplace to get 7.8.4?

Thanks
Michael

This is indeed a problem…

Could someone let me know if and when the windows installer for GRASS 7.8.5 has been fixed?

Thanks

I think the issue I sent you earlier gives the most up-to-date info, so I would subscribe to that issue to get updates. I don’t think we fully understand the problem yet.

see https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/1218#issuecomment-763959797

some more checks are needed about these files, mentioned in the comment, in
the standalone winGRASS installation path.
