module:enable not working for copied-in or submodule add'ed modules. about wire-cli HOT 6 OPEN

Looking at the code - it just seems to call PW functions. Hmm, I wonder if there's a permissions issue or if there needs to be a PW module refresh for this to work.

Must be something else. Will re-open if needed.

Ok, so this issue persists, but only seems to happen if copied/added modules are wirecli module:enabled before the first login to the PW admin interface. Once I log in to the admin interface, I can then use wirecli to install the copied/added modules from the command line as expected.

To be clear, there are no issues with wirecli module:enable working for modules included with processwire when it was downloaded. These modules can be installed fine prior to the first admin login. Similarly, for modules that are downloaded by wirecli and then enabled. These work fine prior to first login. I'm having issues with the Pro modules I'm trying to copy over and then install in a bash script.

It's not permissions or the copied location - they all look good.

Hi Steve, thanks for the detailed informations.

I think I have a Pro Modules at hand so I will test with it. It might be something related to the license flow, I have to read the core code to be sure. Will write here my results.

Hi @flydev-fr , I don't think it's license flow as even non-pro modules I git submodule add to the project are impacted. I suspect it may be a matter of needing the enable command to do a modules refresh first - but that's an untested hypothesis at the moment.

Oh ok I hadn't figured that out. I'd test with submodules so, possibly triggered a refresh yes.
