Cant install Beta 21 on Mac OS (beta 20 and below does install)

[macjeff]

Describe The Bug

I get errors when installing beta 21 both through UI and Manual. Go back to beta 20 or 19 and it works fine.

Logs

Attached. Tried once and failed and got message to chown in the first log.

Did that but same result. I don't think that has anything to do with issue

Please see attachments
homebridge-config-ui-x-error(before chown ).log
homebridge-config-ui-x-error(after chown).log

Config

I don't think the config file is relevant.

seems to be either a permissions or missing library issue.

I did reinstall homebridge and homebridge UI release and same issue when I try to go to beta 20.

but please note running Mac OS Catalina 10.15.7 on older mac mini but as I said it runs beta 20 fine.

Homebridge UI Version

4.62.1 beta 21

Homebridge Version

2.0.0 beta 23

Node.js Version

22.11.0

Operating System

macOS

Environment Info

Using hb-service

Raspberry Pi Model

None

Tks @macjeff for reporting this with logs - In this version of the UI, we included an updated node-pty, and it appears to fail on your setup.

Now to look deeper

Updated just not to 4.63.0 release and it worked.

Went to 5.0 alpha and had same issue

Going away on nov 22nd for a week so probably will leave on release unless you post here that you want me to test another alpha/beta. I don't mind testing until the 21rst. I just don't want to install if the next alpha/beta build does not contain and potential fix.

THANKS!!

new logs attached
5.0 alpha 1 logs.txt

[macjeff]

Accidentally closed (SORRY). See past post.

[NorthernMan54]

This should now be resolved with the latest beta release - v5.0.0-beta.2

[macjeff]

it installed fine!!! Now is it safe to leave running when I leave on vacation or should I roll back?

[NorthernMan54]

It should be fine, as the only change is to node-pty, which is used to drive the pop windows during installs.

[macjeff]

Thanks!!! I was going to say have a happy thanksgiving but see your are in Canada and you already had yours I think.

If you could PM me. A smarthome vendor would like to pay someone to build in Homebridge to their device. It uses Python running on FreeBSD 14.
