====== Solution install issues ======

===== Problem description =====

Installing a solution on a Windows machine with `limefu solution install` and getting version conflicts and/or related Python issues. 
The issues arise because of the Lime Python virtual environment has been compromised. This is either due to file-locks or previous one off `pip` installs into the venv


===== Solution =====
<WRAP center round info 100%>
From Lime CRM 2022.3.1015(2.437.0) it is possible to use [[https://platform.docs.lime-crm.com/en/latest/on-premise/overview/#lime-project|lime-project on-premise install]].
This will most likely solve most solution install issues seen before.

Cleaning out the virtual environment of all non essential packages.
  - Make sure all "lime" services are stopped ('lime-event-handler', 'lime-task-handler', 'lime-task-scheduler', 'limecrm-scheduler', 'limepro-elasticsearch', 'limepro-importer','limepro-search-indexer', 'limepro-webfront', 'limepro-webserver', 'RabbitMQ')
  - As an administrator run `procmd`
  - Run "python -m pip freeze > requirements.txt"
  - Edit requirements.txt and remove "limefu", "virtualenv", "pip" from it
  - Run "python -m pip uninstall -r requirements.txt -y"

The Lime virtual environment is now clean and a solution can be installed with `limefu solution install`
