Hi,

I have a problem while installing packages in windows Pkg.add("DataFrames")
The default location for .julia is a network drive where I have no 
permissions to write.

I have read related 
topic: 
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!searchin/julia-users/package$20installation$20windows/julia-users/N_5F_DL0wP4/7GGneJB3W7IJ
and created system variable 
JULIA_PKGDIR = C:\MyTemp\...
I also edited prepare-julia-env.bat file : set JULIA_PKGDIR=C:\MyTemp\...

But I still have errors:

julia> Pkg.add("DataFrames")
ERROR: Unable to read directory METADATA.
 in readdir at file.jl:172
 in edit at pkg/entry.jl:19
