when I try to run the " npm init ic@latest " command I get this error: create-ic version 0.5.0 Unexpected error Error: spawn command ENOENT at ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:285:19) at onErrorNT (node:internal/child_process:483:16) at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:82:21) { errno: -2, code: 'ENOENT', syscall: 'spawn command', path: 'command', spawnargs: [ '-v', 'dfx' ] error

Are you on Windows? If yes, this CLI does not support this OS (yes, PR welcome).

If Mac or Linux, what version of NodeJS are you using?

i also got same error , i am using WSL2 and my node version is v18.16.0

WSL2

Thanks for the addition feedback. That's the issue then. This CLI does not support Windows (yet) so I guess it does not work with WSL2 as well.

PR welcome!

I am also facing the same issue on Linux(Debian). I am running node v18.15.0 and npm v9.6.7

@sam-the-tutor thanks for the ping.

Did you use the last version of the CLI?

npm init ic@latest

And what version of NodeJS are you using?

I used that command but it failed.

I am running node v18.15.0

@sam-the-tutor well then, it look like it does not work on Linux (Debian) as well 😢.

I don't plan to solve this my self but, if you or anyone is keen to provide a PR, for sure happy to review and merge it!
