Error installing the new k diffusion

[mayofiddler]

Hi, I am getting permission errors when I try to install k diffusion (which I have been waiting for). I change the file permissions but all it does is create a new directory with a new name every install attempt and I get the error again in the new directory, and so on ad infinitum. I even changed the top level directory permissions but it makes no difference. The error is as follows

ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [WinError 5] Access is denied: 'C:\Python projects\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\Lib\site-packages\~-gex\_regex.cp310-win_amd64.pyd'

Appreciate a fix. Even reusing the same directory name would help instead of creating new ones all the time, as the file with the new permissions would be in there after I change it.

I couldn't get the latest pull to take for windows file permissions as well.

For me, I deleted my venv and tmp folders to start from scratch then running webui-user.bat did all the other fresh installs as expected. It got hung up on installing gfpgan, I exited out (ctrl+c) after all drive and cpu activity stopped, and the script continued on with codeFormer and Webui.
If in doubt, uninstall and reinstall.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I was trying to avoid that. Between this one, the other "sd webui" and Disco I've had enough reinstalls to last a lifetime :) And I usually do something stupid like delete my output folder as well and lose all the images I haven't backed up yet :p
But yep indeed, if another git pull or two doesn't fix it then that's the route I will go!

Hi folks, thanks a lot. The error has gone now and I saw k diffusion being cloned after the git pull. When I restarted after that no clone happened, so I presume it worked OK first time. However, there are no k samplers in the interface when you start it up. Is there more work to be done before they show?

Hi all, can anyone answer the question above please? I'm wondering how I can activate k_euler, k_lms etc. as I don't see them in the interface with the other samplers. Thanks :)

I presume that's just what they are anyway, just that dropping the "k_" avoids cluttering the UI. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hi, thanks for the reply. The k diffusion installation thing was just a few days back and nothing related to it in the interface has changed since. So I'm presuming the current selection is just the vanilla versions of the samplers. There have however been options in the settings menu for the k samplers for a long time.
So that's why I'm confused. Between the interface selections not indicating k, the settings for k samplers being there for a long while and the k diffusion installation recently, it's not clear what is going on.

[GalaxyTimeMachine]

The recent change was just an update to k_diffusion.

[mayofiddler]

Ah ok, thanks. So the samplers are all k versions then? It's OK to mark this as answered?

I don't know for sure. It may be better to wait for confirmation.
