Ok! This gives me an idea of what’s going on!! We should be able to fix it in next release

Just to expand a bit from the previous comment - I tried bun, npm and yarn all coming up with the same issue.

Sry to reopen this one @mhevery . I assume the problem on this issue is the background install which starts to download the npm packages as early as possible and moves them then into the final dir. the issue you linked is caused by the fact, that yarn create qwik@latest doesn’t exist. but yarn create qwik works as expected 👍 (https://qwik.builder.io/docs/getting-started/#create-an-app-using-the-cli)

@ianlet are you using the latest version of Qwik?

Yes, sorry I forgot to mention it:

@builder.io/qwik: 1.2.10
@builder.io/qwik-city: 1.2.10
vite: 4.4.7
undici: 5.1.6

Any Linux dev system running systemd (probably most) will fail with this because tmpfs is in RAM and you can’t perform a move from one device to another, since move/rename is supposed to be atomic.

In the case of cross-device like this, the cli will need to copy and remove the original instead.

Same for scenarios like the one in this issue with the temp/store on a different drive from the project in Windows, etc.

Facing same issue with npm (v9.6.6) (OS: Archlinux)

◇  App Created 🐰│

Can you try again in 1.1.2? it should print the error message!
