Julia cannot be launched in Juno IDE

I'm trying to launch Julia in the Juno IDE but it returns

  We tried to launch Julia from:
     julia
  This path can be changed in the settings.
  Details:
  /bin/sh: julia: command not found

Ive searched around the forums, tried setting the julia path to

C:\Julia-1.0.3\bin

and reinstalling the julia-client packages, but nothing seems to work. Julia is able to start through command line.

Thanks in advance!

Solution

  • The Juno plugin is sometimes not stable. Reinstall it. The steps below will work for Windows:

    1. Make sure that typing julia in the console actually starts Julia - this can be achieved by adding to your PATH variable the julia executable location (for example c:\Julia-1.0.3\bin - in Windows 10 go to the "Advanced System Settings" and select "Environment variables" to edit the PATH settings)
    2. Stop Atom
    3. Delete %USERPROFILE%\.atom folder (the actual path looks something like C:\Users\YOUR-NAME\.atom)
    4. Start Atom, press Ctrl+, for the package manager and install Juno
