Issue when building environments "channel ... not recognized in database"

[costrouc]

What is the expected behavior ? Is the build supposed to fail, but catching the exception ? Or should the channel be added in the database ?

Going to add a little more info here, as this has become a blocking issue for me:

dependencies:
- hvplot
- pip
- pip:
  - tqdm @ git+https://github.com/tqdm/tqdm@master
name: test-environment

Fails to build, but it seems like it only fails at the end of the build:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/conda-store-server/conda_store_server/build.py", line 179, in build_conda_environment
    set_build_completed(conda_store, build, output.encode("utf-8"), packages)
  File "/opt/conda-store-server/conda_store_server/build.py", line 45, in set_build_completed
    raise ValueError(
ValueError: channel url=https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main not recognized in conda-store channel database

@peytondmurray I could make this work by adding main in the list of channels :

channels:
- conda-forge
- main
dependencies:
- hvplot
- pip:
  - tqdm @ git+https://github.com/tqdm/tqdm@master
name: test-environment

@costrouc I have added extra logs to gather more informations :

ValueError: channel url=https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main not recognized in conda-store channel database.

}

It seems that the pip package tqdm has a dependency over cryptography from conda-main. What is the right way to handle this ? Should we add the missing channel into Conda Store ?

@steff456 @pierrotsmnrd Now that we have removed the restrictions on channels via #545 can you both please have a look at this issue and

1. lmk if this is still an issue
2. if so, discuss and work on a fix? if not, then we can close this issue

[steff456]

I've tested the original environment in the current main branch and it is working without the need of adding the main channel.

channels:
  - conda-forge
dependencies:
  - hvplot
  - pip
  - pip:
      - tqdm @ git+https://github.com/tqdm/tqdm@master
  - ipykernel

I think this issue was resolved 🎉
