Drush command 'omega-wizard' does not work with drush 8

The issue still happens. The solution is to clear the cache after enabling Omega.

You don't have to 'enable' omega or anything. Just place 'omega' in your themes folder. If you had omega tools previously, run "drush cc drush". If not, it should work right away... If it doesn't, run "drush cc drush" just for good measure and try again - Should work now.

Thanks

So the cache has to be cleared after downloading and placing Omega in the themes directory.

This is reproducible in a clean install.

I had the same problem as steven_kropp
this should be included in the manual
to clear cache before making a sub theme

Please do so! Anyone can edit the handbook pages! :)

Thanks, I just tried to up date the docs
but I get this message

Sorry I did it first. But feel free to improve it.

Thank you netol

thanks you two.

after some hours pulling my hair out, I stumbled across something that might help: you actually have to make Omega your default theme for this to work.

Got my too. The commands get listed by crush but they simply do work. Should not need to be this way. In Drupal 7 is every theme present loaded/found by drupal, enabled or not. This is changed in D8 where no other then the enabled themes are included. Oh, well.

I"m experiencing the same issue after upgrading to the latest version of Acquia Dev Desktop. This also applies to the command $ drush omega-export.

Of course, the first thing I did was clear all caches, but it doesn't help.

Omega is already installed in the sites/all/themes folder, and is the current version. Like luco found out in issue #13, the v.4.4 base theme needs to be enabled for this to work. Once I did this, I could do it. Setting my subtheme as default reverted back to the same problems as before.

I'm on a project deadline, but will be back on this in the next few days, if a solution hasn't been found by then. Based on what was changed in the Dev Desktop update, the main thing to check is probably compatibility with the latest version of Drush.

Additional Info 1:

I checked on another site I'm working on, but haven't upgraded that install of Omega. Same error when running $ drush omega-export

Additional Info 2:

To be sure no other issues were present, I quit Acquia Dev Desktop and restarted, then installed a clean build of Drupal core 7.38, and set up. Once done, the following commands were run:
$ drush dl omega (ran OK)

$ drush en omega (ran OK)

$ drush omega-wizard (error below)

Command omega-wizard needs the following module(s) enabled to run:   [error]
omega.

Additional Info 3:

To confirm that it's an interaction with Drush, I rolled back my install of Acquia Dev Desktop to the 2015-04-03 build (running Drush 7.0.0-rc1). Once this was done, all Omega commands worked fine. Apparently, there's some interaction with Drush 8.0.x (the current version of Dev Desktop is the 2015-07-27 build). I'm figuring there's a compatibility issue between Omega 4.x and Drush 8.0.x at this point.

I ran into the same problem. A temporary work-around is to set Omega as the default theme (instead of your sub-theme) and then the drush commands work.

is there any update on this?
same issue.. omega drush commands are working when omega is the default theme but not if a subtheme is set as default

UPDATE: downgraded to drush 7 from 8-dev and there is no issue.

This is a drush issue (not sure when or why it was changed). Please open a bug report / regression report on the github issue page for drush!

In order to use the Omega 4 drush commands, you will need to switch your drush version.

Switch version to drush 7
$ cd .composer/vendor/drush/drush
$ git checkout remotes/origin/7.x
$ drush cc drush <--very important!

You will now be able to run the command: $ drush omega-wizard
Changing drush version also works to export your theme.info file: $ drush omega-export themename --revert

To switch back to master (drush 8)
$ cd .composer/vendor/drush/drush
$ git checkout master
$ drush cc drush <--very important!

I tried setup omega-8.x-5.0-alpha3 via drush but not working.

here is the sequence i tired;

$ drush --version
Drush Version : 8.0.0-rc4

$ drush dl omega-8.x-5.0-alpha3
Project omega (8.x-5.0-alpha3) downloaded to [success]
/var/www/html/biolab//themes/omega.
Project omega contains 2 themes: omega, omega_starterkit.

$ drush cc drush
'drush' cache was cleared. [success]

drush omega-wizard
The drush command 'omega-wizard' could not be found. Run `drush [error]
cache-clear drush` to clear the commandfile cache if you have
installed new extensions.

What could be the solution? already tired "drush cc drush".

@ayushmanshrestha I do not think omega-8.x-5 have a working wizard. Anyway, you have to make sure to enable Omega theme and set it as default before running. Still having problem, please open a new issue. Posting in old closed issues is normally not a good idea.

I've created sub-themes of Omega countless times and I always seem to forget to set Omega as the default theme. Thanks #13 @luco for the reminder. I keep saying "doi!" to myself. I thought it was because I was using Acquia DevDesktop and the default version of Drush was 8.x. Ugh! ...and just in case you ever try to override Acquia DD's Drush install and try to install your own version of Drush with composer....good luck. Modifying both ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile didn't help.

I reopened an issue on drush because having to downgrade it or to set omega as the default theme is not always an option
https://github.com/drush-ops/drush/issues/1878

I'm still having a problem even when I revert to Drush 7, and enable Omega as the default theme. Thoughts?

I'm using Drush 8.1 and found this worked for me for Omega 7.x-4.4 on a fresh Drupal 7.50 install:

drush dl omega
drush cc drush
drush en omega -y
drush omega-wizard

I don't have Drush 7 on my machine (scotchbox) so I didn't need to switch to anything. I had installed Drush 8 with Composer. Hopefully this helps others.

Yes, the Omega base theme needs to be enabled in order for the omega-xxxxx commands to work. It does not have to be set to the default theme. Thank you @DuaelFr for your work on this drush issue.

Has @Rade says enable omega and set it bay defauft works fine for me.
