Cannot Install Rust using "mise use -g rust"

[dbryantm]

I'm unable to install rust using mise use -g rust. I've also tried other versions of rust with no success. Just wanted to put it out there to see if anyone else has had the same issue. Thanks in advance!

Here's my mise doctor output:

System might be low on memory (RAM). Can you try and set the environment variable RUSTUP_UNPACK_RAM=100M before trying to install Rust?

Happy to try it but I'm running a Macbook Pro M4 Pro with 48GB of RAM. Here's the results:

Can not find much about this error. I doubt this is directly related to mise as it is also simply downloading and executing rustup under the hood. Does it succeed if you install it the usual way via curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh?

[dbryantm]

Looks like it works just fine if I install it outside of mise.

➜  ~ curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
info: downloading installer

Welcome to Rust!

This will download and install the official compiler for the Rust
programming language, and its package manager, Cargo.

Rustup metadata and toolchains will be installed into the Rustup
home directory, located at:

  /Users/dbryantm/.rustup

This can be modified with the RUSTUP_HOME environment variable.

The Cargo home directory is located at:

  /Users/dbryantm/.cargo

This can be modified with the CARGO_HOME environment variable.

The cargo, rustc, rustup and other commands will be added to
Cargo's bin directory, located at:

  /Users/dbryantm/.cargo/bin

This path will then be added to your PATH environment variable by
modifying the profile files located at:

  /Users/dbryantm/.profile
  /Users/dbryantm/.zshenv

You can uninstall at any time with rustup self uninstall and
these changes will be reverted.

Current installation options:


   default host triple: aarch64-apple-darwin
     default toolchain: stable (default)
               profile: default
  modify PATH variable: yes

1) Proceed with standard installation (default - just press enter)
2) Customize installation
3) Cancel installation
>1

info: profile set to 'default'
info: default host triple is aarch64-apple-darwin
warning: Updating existing toolchain, profile choice will be ignored
info: syncing channel updates for '1.83.0-aarch64-apple-darwin'
info: latest update on 2024-11-28, rust version 1.83.0 (90b35a623 2024-11-26)
info: default toolchain set to '1.83.0-aarch64-apple-darwin'

  1.83.0-aarch64-apple-darwin unchanged - (rustc does not exist)


Rust is installed now. Great!

To get started you may need to restart your current shell.
This would reload your PATH environment variable to include
Cargo's bin directory ($HOME/.cargo/bin).

To configure your current shell, you need to source
the corresponding env file under $HOME/.cargo.

This is usually done by running one of the following (note the leading DOT):
. "$HOME/.cargo/env"            # For sh/bash/zsh/ash/dash/pdksh
source "$HOME/.cargo/env.fish"  # For fish

So this is quite strange but I uninstalled rust using rustup self uninstall then tried reinstalling with mise use -g rust and it worked? Not entirely sure what could've happened but it seems that fixed it.
