Unity Package won't install

By mmiinnovations on Sun, 04/04/2021 - 06:11

I'm getting error when trying to install the package in Unity per this link:

https://library.vuforia.com/articles/Training/getting-started-with-vuforia-in-unity.html

 

I download the package and attempt to import and I get error of:

Project has invalid dependencies:     com.ptc.vuforia.engine: Error when executing git command. fatal: update_ref failed for ref 'HEAD': cannot update ref 'refs/heads/master': trying to write non-commit object 2aa4b218a1eefc116d8bef718e26f3a08d2e5f02 to branch 'refs/heads/master'

A re-import of the project may be required to fix the issue or a manual modification of AR/Packages/manifest.json file.

 

I've tried to start new clean project and still get same error. I'm on Mac OSX Big Sur 11.2.3 and Unity 2021.1.1f1

I've tried all the suggestions in this thread already... https://developer.vuforia.com/forum/issues-and-bugs/unable-import-vuforia-964-unity

...as well including the manual download as shown in the YT video in the thread.

I have Git installed and PATH variable is set.

Ideas? 

Hi @ mminnovations @xebuddha,

I was able to reproduce the issue with 2020.3.2 LTS. R&D team is looking into this currently.

Hi, when i write mymac@Username-iMac ~ % xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine </Users/MyMac/Desktop/MyGame/Packages/packages-lock.json> in terminal it gives this error:

zsh: parse error near `\n'

Hi @xebuddha,

The comand should reference the package as in the below example:

xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /Users/mcotora/UnityProjects/TestManualInstall/Packages/com.ptc.vuforia.engine

@Emercab,

Super Quick Solution:


1. Open your Unity project folder, 

2. Go to Package, open packages-lock.json file with text editor,

3. Inside the json entity of com.ptc.vuforia.engine, inside the its json tree,
