Help/Support fatal: destination path theos

Samollthecamel · February 4, 2018

hi, im upto the last step once again in installing theos on my ipad. when cloning the last thing once again, i get a error saying

fatal: destination path '/var/theos/sdks' already exists and is not an empty directory.

does this mean i just skip this part or i have to do some additional steps? thank you for any information

Read the "Additional Information" part of the theos tutorial:

"- If your SDK is failing to install, try deleting the sdks folder in your theos directory and then run the git command."

Run:

rm -rf /var/theos/sdks

Then run the git command to copy theos again.

Make sure your theos is installed in /var

Type in cd /var/root

And then run theos, your projects will automatically be created inside /var/root folder.
