[anonymux1]

I am not quite sure what I am doing wrong, but it seems to be a config issue. I am on MacOS M1, Tried both VSC stable, insider and tried both arduino ext stable,pre-release. Can anyone please help me? At my wits end now. I am unable to Install any Library, get the following error:
[Starting] Install library -
[Error] Exit with code=null

I cant refresh board list, same error.
[Starting] Update package index files...
dummy
[Error] Exit with code=null

I cant compile a sketch, I get the same error. :
[Starting] Verifying sketch 'Hydroponix.ino'
[Warning] Output path is not specified. Unable to reuse previously compiled files. Build will be slower. See README.
[Warning] Failed to generate IntelliSense configuration.
[Error] Verifying sketch 'Hydroponix.ino': {"code":null}

This happens to me when using the bundled Arduino CLI. I also have the (old 1.8.19) Arduino app installed and it seems to work fine when its configured to use that.

This turned out to be an issue with the way MacOS Sonoma handles permissions.. I needed to do this: #1681
