Pumas Pkg Now Unloadable

srg808 · January 12, 2026, 10:25pm

Hello all,

After the new year, I was trying to open Pumas to begin the process of reactivating the license (Desktop client). However, when trying to run using Pumas in a Pumas 2.7.1 REPL opened from Pumas: List Versions in the VS Code command palette, I am having issues with package precompilation.

I tried switching to a different version, restarting VS Code, and restarting my PC. All steps to no avail.

Output of using Pumas:

julia> using Pumas

Info Packages marked with ⌅ have new versions available but compatibility constraints restrict them from upgrading. To see why use `status --outdated`

Please let me know how I can resolve this issue or if additional information is needed.

Also, will instructions on how to reactivate the license be sent soon? In the email, I was informed that instructions to reactivate would be sent in early January, but I have not received them yet.

Thank you PumasAI team, and I hope your 2026 is off to a good start.

Hello @srg808,

This is a know issue on some systems, and a fix is in progress. In the mean time you can do the following to manually workaround it:

Go into C:\Users\rayga\.julia and delete the clones folder. Then in vscode uninstall and reinstall the Pumas@2.7.1 product.

If this doesn’t help for you then let me know and I’ll set up a call to debug it.

Kind regards,
Michael Hatherly

srg808 · January 14, 2026, 7:57pm

Hello @Michael ,

Your workaround solved the issue.
Thank you for the comments and subsequent guidance!

Hi All,

I’m also trying to use PUMAS at the start of the new year. My current license expires Jan 31 2026 and I’ve requested a new license. When I run “using Pumas” from the Julia REPL (version 1.11.6) I get the following messages.

Please advise.

Jim

Did you try the steps mentioned in Pumas Pkg Now Unloadable - #2 by Michael

jamesreynolds · January 22, 2026, 2:43am

Yes, I tried the steps mentioned in Pumas Now Unloadable - #2 by Michael. Now I get the following error:

What happens if you try starting Julia/Pumas from the Pumas extension as shown below

jamesreynolds · January 22, 2026, 9:22pm

I don’t have that as an option:

andreasnoack · January 23, 2026, 8:52am

You need to first select Pumas: List Versions

jamesreynolds · January 24, 2026, 7:19am

This is what I see after select Pumas: List Versions

andreasnoack · January 24, 2026, 7:55am

Then select Pumas@2.7.1

jamesreynolds · January 26, 2026, 8:57am

Got it. that seemed to resolve the issue about Pumas starting. However, it’s using julia 1.11.7 even though I have 1.12.4 installed. Also, it’s not asking me for my license renewal (for 2026) key which I’ve already received.

andreasnoack · January 26, 2026, 10:11am

However, it’s using julia 1.11.7 even though I have 1.12.4 installed.

Pumas is tested with and released for a specific version of Pumas so even though you are using Julia 1.12.4 for other Julia tasks, Pumas 2.7.1 will be using 1.11.7. The upcoming version 2.8.0 will be using Julia 1.11.8.

Also, it’s not asking me for my license renewal (for 2026) key which I’ve already received.

You will be asked to enter the new key once the old one expires.

jamesreynolds · January 27, 2026, 2:35am

Thanks for the explanation and for your help.

andreasnoack · January 27, 2026, 7:28am

I should add that you can set the default per VSCode project. So you can limit the configuration of juliaup to Pumas 2.7.1 for your Pumas projects and leave the global configuration to use Julia 1.12.

jamesreynolds · February 7, 2026, 8:10am

Unfortunately, I spoke to soon. When I try using Pumas it’s not asking me for my new License and terminates with the error: The terminal process “julia.exe ‘+Pumas@2.7.1’, ‘–project=C:\Users\jmr19\.julia\environments\Pumas@2.7.1’, ‘-i’, ‘C:\Users\jmr19\AppData\Local\Temp\vscode-julia-connect-1770450087750.jl’” terminated with exit code: 541541187.
