• what platforms would you like to use - use default (all)
• set up git 'no'

3. cd into 'evaluation' folder
4. run 'rnv run'

Expected behavior RNV projects bootstrapped and ready to develop with with no error.

@KarlOstMod I can't seem to be able to replicate this issue on osx. You're getting this while creating the project, not while trying to actually run it, correct? I'll roll out an Ubuntu VM to test it there as well.

[KarlOstMod]

Hi @mihaiblaga89 . I can and my colleague can recreate on OSX.

I'm using: node v18.3.0 op: macOS Monterey npm: 8.14.0

the error occurs after cd'ing into the directory and running rnv run

Hi @mihaiblaga89. It works if I only select web and cd into the dir and rnv run.

[mihaiblaga89]

@KarlOstMod oh, ok. I was now able to replicate the issue. You can create a project normally (with all the platforms) and then instead of rnv run do rnv run -p <platform> while I'm working on a fix for the guided part.

Was fixed and not reproduced on 0.37.1
