That worked perfectly. I copied the three files across, created a new VM, copied my database and (apart from a single issue) everything worked fine. Thank you so much for your help. It never occurred to me that this would be possible. There is one big difference between Windows and the Mac but I will post that as a separate item. Again, many thanks.

David,
Since you have so much trouble building on Windows, I would suggest building a deployment image on macOS and then copy that over to Windows (*.image *.changes *.sources), install a VM on Windows, and run headless with a startup.st script.

Hi everyone.
I have a simple talk, or so I thought. I am trying to port a Mac Pharo/Seaside project to either a Windows 2012 server or to a Windows 10 laptop. I have set up my git credentials and that all works fine. However, when I install either 8.0 or 9.0 on my Windows 10 laptop it shows he following Repositories -- status Pharo Local repository missing Pharo-spec2 Local repository missing Pharo-newtools Local repository missing Iceberg Local repository missing Libgit-pharo-bindings Local repository missing tonel Local repository missing
What on earth is going on here as installing Pharo on my Mac was seamless. I have to get the project onto a Windows machine as these are the only servers that I have. I really canât be this difficult, can it?
How do I get out of this mess, given that that is a clean install? David Totally Objects
