bun v1.1.12 [WINDOWS?] stuck resolving when adding/installing package NOT in cache
What version of Bun is running?
1.1.12+43f0913c3
What platform is your computer?
Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.19045.0 x64
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Bun install/add still hang on resolve when packages are not in cache. To simulate this remove cache.
bun pm cache rm
(This is because trying versions, 1.1.12 -> 1.1.8, only 1.1.8 doesn't hang on install/add packages but then after switching back to v1.1.12 it will resolve because it is in cache)
(I use scoop reset bun@version to switch versions 1.1.12 -> 1.1.8)
start new bun package with bun init
(will hang on bun init as well IF empty cache and need to ctrl-c to exit)
Remember to clear cache first to simulate no cache
bun pm cache rm
Install only works with v1.1.8 when cache is empty ( or does not contain the packages needed to install)
Now that it installed with v1.1.8, going back to v1.1.12 will work.
Note in v1.1.12 removing node_modules and bun i will work. BUT if cache is removed via bun pm cache rm. Then bun will hang again in bun i
Same for adding any packages
I don't think the previous bug https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/11413 is solved
What is the expected behavior?

This issue seems reoccurring after using bun for a bit...
When it hangs on resolving... it seems to proceed after ~2 minutes.
I'm having the same issue on macOS 14.4.1 (23E224).
bun install is stuck on Resolving [1/1] (the types for bun).
restarting didn't help
running bun install --no-cache fixed the issue
Actually, I was wrong, it seemed to work because before running bun install --no-cache I've ran npm install.
Removing node_modules and the locks and running bun install --no-cache again also gets stuck.
Got the same problem on Ubuntu where bun was installed from SNAPs
Resolved by uninstall bun from SNAP: sudo snap remove bun-js and install from the official website
I’m having this issue right now and I have installed bun following guidelines on the official site for MacOS.
This issue still persists at 1.1.42 and is somewhat inconsistent. On window startup / restart, bun install, bun add seems to work without getting stuck. But something happens and bun add / install just hangs on resolves for 120 + seconds. The issue resolves if I restart windows again, but then an hour or two later this issue emmerges
From https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/5831 seems like the issue will resolve if ipv6 is disabled.
bun install commands should work with ipv6 though.
This issue is still happening on v1.2.0 - We are being delayed too many times because of that, someone have an easy fix besides disable ipv6?
on MacOS, latest bun at the moment, having no cache.

I just spent some hours chasing this. Disabling IPv6 worked temporarily, but my home network was the root cause. Simply yoinking the modem+router from the wall and restarting them fixed everything. Seems Chrome (and curl?) are smart enough to fall back to IPv4 automatically so the internet connection appears to work, but simpler utilities (wget, bun install, gem install) will just hang forever.
Can confirm it's related to IPV6 and still occurs with v1.2.8 :/ Easy / fast fix i found for now: enable / toggle a VPN (like WARP) and try commands again
Having the same problem. Bun seems to stuck in resolving after using it for sometimes. Restarting the machine solve the problem for me.
Same issues on windows 11 using command: bunx --bun shadcn@latest add tabs stuck at 577 or 559, gets stuck at some package and never continues
Same for me on Fedora 42 with bun version 1.2.18 and I've disabled ipv6 and immediately worked even without retrying the command
I also encountered this problem in Linux, using version v1.2.21. Is there any solution other than disabling IPv6?
Same issue here Windows 11 with v1.2.23. I tried bun install --no-cache and it works for me.
Here are some logs when I just run bun install.
❯ bun install --verbose
bun install v1.2.23 (cf136713)

WSL2 user here, Ubuntu 24, started encountering this issue from one day to the next without changing anything anywhere. Did a clean install shortly before I left my computer, worked fine. Hop on my computer the next day, boom, hit with this issue here.
Infinitely stuck on resolving, nothing works. Upgraded bun, restarted the computer - still broken.
Then I read about disabling IPv6 and added this to my .wslconfig
[wsl2]
kernelCommandLine=ipv6.disable=1
restarted wsl and now its working again
