packer command not working

[jramhani]

All packers

packer amber example.exe

00:00:00.586 [ERROR] [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'amber'

UPX works

packer upx example.exe

@jramhani Thank you for reporting.
Actually, this is not a bug but a misleading error message because of the context ;

• When you install the box, setup of some items (including packers) may fail without a warning.
• This means that, when you use the related tool (in this case packer), it will raise a OSError as it does not find the item to be run (amber).

So please try the following and tell if the setup succeeds ;

$ packing-box setup packer amber

Oh, okey thanks clarification;

I tried to setup using the command mentioned but got the following error :

00:00:00.108 [INFO] Setting up Amber...
00:00:02.610 [ERROR] mv: cannot move '/home/user/.opt/packers' to a subdirectory of itself, '/home/user/.opt/packers/amber'
