looks like network timeout issue. could you delete the file ~/.config/github-copilot/apps.json and try again?

[dw61]

same problem

(base) [~]$ rm ~/.config/github-copilot/apps.json
rm: /Users/wlt/.config/github-copilot/apps.json: No such file or directory

@dw61 See https://github.com/github/CopilotForXcode/issues/323#issuecomment-2979896259, If you cannot see the folder ~/.config/github-copilot, it probably suffers permission denied issue with folder access. Could you check it first?

[dw61]

@testforstephen thanks, worked now

# 1 — make sure the folder exists
sudo mkdir -p ~/.config/github-copilot

# 2 — re-own everything under ~/.config
sudo chown -R $(whoami):staff ~/.config

# 3 — drop any ACLs that override rw bits
chmod -N ~/.config ~/.config/github-copilot      # removes all ACL entries

chmod -N ~/.config ~/.config/github-copilot

This works for me

Hello, have you solved this problem? I encountered the same issue as you, and even the error message was the same. I'm sure my network is good and my browser can access Github normally. I tried these terminal commands of this issue, but they didn't work for me.
