[dart-misc] "The system cannot move the file to a different disk drive" running "pub run test"

[Danny Tuppeny]

I've raised this as a bug <https://github.com/dart-lang/test/issues/444> as
the error requests, but thought I'd post here in case anyone has any ideas.
I'll try and debug a little more later when I have some time.

I don't know if pub run test is the righty way to run tests (I thought
there was a pub test?!) however I got this strange error when running it...


I'm on Windows 10, running in a PowerShell window.


I cloned https://github.com/dart-lang/convert, ran pub get then pub run test and
got the following:


PS M:\Coding\Applications\convert> pub run test
Directory listing failed, path = 'test\packages\analyzer\dart\*' (OS Error: The system cannot move the file to a different disk drive.
, errno = 17)
dart:io _Directory.listSync
package:test/src/runner/loader.dart 91:49 Loader.loadDir
package:test/src/runner.dart 240:60 Runner._loadSuites.<fn>
dart:_internal ListIterable.forEach
package:async/src/stream_group.dart 58:13 StreamGroup.merge
package:test/src/runner.dart 239:24 Runner._loadSuites
package:test/src/runner.dart 116:18 Runner.run.<async>

This is an unexpected error. Please file an issue at http://github.com/dart-lang/test
with the stack trace and instructions for reproducing the error.

I've gotta go out, but I'll try and do some more debugging later.

This turned out to be because the Pub cache was on a different drive to the
dart code. I've moved the cache and everything works fine.

The sooner the symlinks go away, the better IMO! =)
