"File unchanged! The supplied flag value not found!" error on creation of starter app

[noleftsignal]

Upon completion of the steps in composing a starter app today (as I've done many times), I discovered that it did not update any of the files and basically just created a new rails app without any of the composer juice that normally happens when using this excellent app. I have not had this trouble in the past and just started today. So what has changed you ask? Nothing that I can think of...I did update to Mac OS Catalina, but have composed apps with the same process between then and now without issue, so I feel like it's not that. I did recently update Xcode through app store so that is a potential cause. But I have agreed to the new terms etc etc. I also allowed full disk access to terminal and Xcode in the privacy settings list in the system preferences. I am using RVM and have updated it. Any help to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated! Would love to get back into my workflow as soon as possible.

Here is some output of the first bit of the composition:

Composer will allow you to continue through the setup but at one other occasion it throws the same error and does not run any migrations, or add any devise files or migrations to the db folder. Actually it appears to be an even less comprehensive folder structure than just running rails new.

I have the same problem.. any solution ?

[noleftsignal]

I could not find a solution...but I did think later it might be related to rvm somehow. In the meantime I wrote documentation to which I could refer each time I need to bootstrap a new rails app without composer...and I added a few things like basic messaging and smarter error handling...if you like it can send you the file. On Jul 18, 2020 6:52 PM, ckrampanis <[email protected]> wrote: I have the same problem.. any solution ? —You are receiving this because you authored the thread.Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub, or unsubscribe.
