This PR hechoendrupal/drupal-console-launcher#82 should fix this.

[PatrickBauer]

Is there a way to test this without waiting for another console-launcher release?

[jmolivas]

@PatrickBauer you can try by

1. cloning the repo https://github.com/hechoendrupal/drupal-console-launcher
2. using composer to install dependencies
3. building the phar using https://github.com/box-project/box2

[PatrickBauer]

Thank you. I tried it and the PR fixes the problem 👍

@FabricioBedoya
Can you provide more detail on this:
"using composer to install dependencies"

I know it's documented elsewhere, but I'm not sure how to do it in a way that will pull the latest dev code. I tried this in my composer.json require but it was rejected by composer:
"drupal/console": "dev-master",

[PatrickBauer]

@arnoldbird

Follow these steps:

git clone git@github.com:hechoendrupal/drupal-console-launcher.git
cd drupal-console-launcher
composer install
composer global require kherge/box --prefer-source
box build
mv drupal.phar /usr/local/bin/drupal

For the last step you have should change the path to your current drupal console launcher.

[arnoldbird]

Thanks!

For the first step, I needed to do...
git clone https://github.com/hechoendrupal/drupal-console-launcher.git

When I ran 'box build', I got...

  creating archive "/root/drupal-console-launcher/drupal.phar" disabled by th  
  e php.ini setting phar.readonly

I resolved that by setting phar.readonly = Off in /etc/php5/cli/php.ini
It seems that phar.readonly defaults to On.

Now I can install modules with console.

I had problems with generate functions, the mentioned PR fixed that for me too.

Closing this one. Feel free to re-open if still happening after updating to the latest version.

[dstorozhuk]

It still doesn't work. I trien php 7.0, php 5.6.

[PatrickBauer]

@dstorozhuk There were two updates already in the meantime. Just use drupal self-update outside of a drupal project (e.g. your home folder) and it should work again.
