I just upgraded from v1.16.5 to v1.17.0 and electron's no longer starting up with npm start; I just get the Usage: list of options. I thought this might be a function of my somewhat complicated build process but the error occurs in my clone of the basic open-stage-control repo.
I also did an npm ci.
Any ideas?
did you run npm install after pulling ? Is the exact command you're using npm start ?
Yes, started with npm install, eventually npm ci, yes, used npm start and fiddled with variations on using electron directly. Spent the whole day on this, I'm assuming it's a problem with my MacBook Pro. Had no choice but to download the prebuilt MacOS version as I have a performance in a few days.
The explanation may lie in the full log output after npm install.
Just to close this out for anyone coming along later. I don't believe that the upgrade had anything to do with the problems I reported and now that I have a few weeks break between performances I'm going to wipe and reinstall everything on my overworked old MacBook Pro.
I have the same issue, I'm on OSX Ventura, M2 Mac mini.
Using Node Version 16.0.0, npm version 7.10.0.
cloning repo, running npm install followed by npm run build
no errors encountered, but app doesn't start when running npm start
instead this output:
