I'm getting an error when I try to set up Elementary locally:

Copy code

Failed to read package: Runtime Error
    No dbt_project.yml found at expected path C:\Users\ ... \Lib\site-packages\elementary\monitor\dbt_project\dbt_packages\dbt-data-reliability-0.14.0\dbt_project.yml

When I go to the

dbt-data-reliability-0.14.0\

folder in File Explorer, I confirm that there is no

dbt_project.yml

file:

Getting ahead of a few questions: 1. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling elementary-data to try to get Elementary to create that missing

dbt_project.yml

file:

Copy code

$ pip un/install elementary-data

2. Elementary auto-created a

package-lock.yml

file in my dbt project repo. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. 3. I successfully created the "elementary" profile in my

profiles.yml

file. I don't think that's relevant to this issue though.

This error happens (No dbt_project.yml found at expected path) when I try running:

Copy code

edr report --select last_invocation

I do get a response when I run

edr --help

, so the Elementary CLI is installed locally for me.

Hey @Evan Degler, i suspect this issue is due to the fact that the path is too long (windows has a limit of 256 characters), can you try installing

edr

in a venv that is closer to the root directory?
