Hello @vijay ,

I tried to install Pumas using the new method, but I encountered the following error message. It seems that the installer is trying to call Julia from an incorrect path. I tested both version 2.7.0 and 2.6.1, and tried installation in both global and project installations, but I faced the same error in all cases.

Is there any way to resolve this issue? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
