IDE wont start for no, reason

I'm on an ARM MacBook Pro 2021 with macOS Ventura 13.6.2.

I've been using an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for about a month now, and everything was working perfectly. However, this morning, when I tried to open a project, I couldn't launch the application.

I've restarted my Mac, reinstalled the app, deleted all the files—nothing seems to work.

I attempted to code using Visual Studio Code, but I encountered the same issue. I'm not sure if it's a coincidence or not.

I'm running out of ideas. If anyone has a solution, I would really appreciate it :slight_smile:

Hi @moebious35. I'm going to ask you to post some additional information that might help us to identify the problem.


:exclamation: This procedure is not intended to solve the problem. The purpose is to gather more information.


Please do this:

  1. Close all Arduino IDE windows if the IDE is already running.
  2. Open macOS Launchpad.
  3. Type terminal in the "Search" field.
  4. Click on the "Terminal" icon.
    A "zsh" window will open.
  5. Type the following command in the zsh window:
    "/Applications/Arduino IDE.app/Contents/MacOS/Arduino IDE"
    
  6. Press the Enter key.
  7. Wait until you are sure the IDE startup has gone into the hang state
    (as indicated by no additional output being printed to the Terminal window).
  8. Switch back to the Terminal window if the Arduino IDE window took the focus.
  9. Press the Command+A keyboard shortcut.
    This will select all the text in the Terminal window.
  10. Press the Command+C keyboard shortcut.
    This will copy the selected text to the clipboard.
  11. Open a forum reply here by clicking the "Reply" button.
  12. Click the <CODE/> icon on the post composer toolbar.
    This will add the forum's code block markup (```) to your reply to make sure the output is correctly formatted.
    Code tags icon on toolbar
  13. Press the Command+V keyboard shortcut.
    This will paste the output into the code block.
  14. Move the cursor outside of the code block markup before you add any additional text to your reply.
  15. Click the "Reply" button to post the output.

Please let me know if you have any questions or problems while following those instructions.

guillaume@MBPdeGuillaume ~ % /Applications/Arduino IDE.app/Contents/MacOS/Arduino IDE
zsh: no such file or directory: /Applications/Arduino
guillaume@MBPdeGuillaume ~ %

Strange, i do have the app in the applications file

Because of the spaces in the path ("Arduino IDE"), it is mandatory to wrap the command in quotes, exactly as written in my instructions.

Note that the error says there is no file or directory /Applications/Arduino, not that there is no file at the full path /Applications/Arduino IDE.app/Contents/MacOS/Arduino IDE

here's the one sorry

I saw these reports of similar errors from VS Code users:

They both reported finding the problem was caused by their proxy configuration. Are you accessing the Internet through a proxy server?

The problem was the proxy ! thank you for your help guys !

You are welcome. Nice job on finding the problem! Thanks for taking the time to post an update.

Regards,
