EasyBuild fails at stage 2 #2372
Description
Hi There
I'm having some issues getting EasyBuild installed, which is probably because I'm not very confident using Unix and don't really understand what's going on with the error message. I've tried following some of the previous posts on how to fix install issues, but I couldn't see how to resolve my problem. I have installed Lua and Lmod, and I think that I've set up the paths to these correctly. Below is the error I am getting:
$ export EASYBUILD_MODULE_SYNTAX=Lua

Would you be able to provide some easy to follow instructions on what I can do to try and fix this issue?
Many thanks!
