bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 09:06): bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 09:06):noob who just installed roc (hopefully) and is trying to follow the tutorial. When i roc dev I get the following error:
roc dev
libc++abi: terminating due to uncaught exception of type std::runtime_error: file is already signed. pass -f to sign regardless.
thread 'main' panicked at crates/compiler/build/src/program.rs:1031:17:

I have no clue what to do. I am on MacOs silicon m1 MacBook Air. Thanks for any suggestions
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 09:11):Hi @bernardino,
Can you share your macos version?

HI @Anton sure!
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 09:14):Thanks, I'll try to reproduce and resolve your issue today
Luke Boswell (Aug 14 2024 at 09:17):Are you able to provide any more information to help me reproduce?

Luke Boswell (Aug 14 2024 at 09:18):Are you using one of the nightlies downloaded from the website or through nix?
Luke Boswell (Aug 14 2024 at 09:26):(deleted)
Luke Boswell (Aug 14 2024 at 09:29):Compiled from source
$ file /Users/luke/Documents/GitHub/roc/target/release/roc
/Users/luke/Documents/GitHub/roc/target/release/roc: Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64
Yes, I am - just basically following the installation instructions

I am pretty sure I am missing something obvious here :=
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 09:31):I exported to PATH and I am not running roc dev from the installation folder .... I don't see how that could be it though
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 09:32):I downloaded with curl -OL https://github.com/roc-lang/roc/releases/download/nightly/roc_nightly-macos_apple_silicon-latest.tar.gz
Luke Boswell (Aug 14 2024 at 09:33):Oh yeah, I goofed up. I hadn't realised the terminal I was in was ssh'd into my linux machine.

I'm a Roc application!
Works ok for me
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 09:36):Screenshot-2024-08-14-alle-11.35.45.png
I get the same problem even within the install dir
Luke Boswell (Aug 14 2024 at 09:36):@bernardino have you created the main.roc file as in the tutorial?
Luke Boswell (Aug 14 2024 at 09:37):FWIW I don't think you are doing anything wrong. It all looks ok -- there must be a bug here I think.
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 09:37):I literally copy-pasted
main.roc
Luke Boswell (Aug 14 2024 at 10:01):I must have installed a library or something at some point using homebrew. Maybe it was an xcode thing.
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 10:26):I can't reproduce this either with same OS version and m2 cpu but there are some things we can try.
@bernardino can you try running xcode-select --install in the terminal and try roc dev main.roc again?
If that does not work, this may be a temporary workaround:
roc dev main.roc --linker=legacy

bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 10:35):Still not successful ;(
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling from scratch by the way
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 11:32):I have an idea for a possible fix, I'll make a release for you to try...
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 12:05):Thanks @Anton
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 13:31):Can you try this?
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 13:49):Screenshot-2024-08-14-alle-15.49.06.png nope sorry @Anton
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 14:38):Can you share the output of which codesign? I think you've got something similar going on as here.
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 14:49):Screenshot-2024-08-14-alle-16.49.00.png
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 14:49):bingo
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 14:51):Hang on, I'm going to find you a proper fix because your codesign setup will cause problems for other programs as well
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 14:51):So this codesign library should be in a different path? I'm not sure I know what it is .... :face_with_diagonal_mouth:
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 14:54):Can you do cat ~/.zshrc | grep anaconda and share the output?
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 14:59):Screenshot-2024-08-14-alle-16.59.40.png
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 15:04):Yes, as expected, can you edit ~/.zshrc and replace export PATH="/Users/bernardino/opt/anaconda3/bin:$PATH" with export PATH="$PATH:/Users/bernardino/opt/anaconda3/bin"?
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 15:08):After you have edited and saved that file, open a new terminal and roc dev main.roc should work
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 15:12):Screenshot-2024-08-14-alle-17.11.49.png
This is what I see in my zsrch you mean edit the line inside the conditional? Won't that bork potentially other stuff? Forgive me, I have very little idea about all this
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 15:23):Won't that bork potentially other stuff?
If you already had python or pip installed before anaconda, it may use those instead of the anaconda ones. A completely safe alternative would be to execute export PATH="/usr/bin:$PATH" once in the terminal before you use roc.
I have a fix ready that will fix this in future Roc releases, but it will take a while before a new nightly comes out.
bernardino (Aug 14 2024 at 15:25):Screenshot-2024-08-14-alle-17.24.59.png
Hey! That worked!!!! Thanks so much for your patience and assistance. (I have no idea what just went on but cool)
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 15:26):If you ever have any codesign problems with other programs, running export PATH="/usr/bin:$PATH" should always fix it
Anton (Aug 14 2024 at 15:27):I'll make an issue with the folks from anaconda to see if this can be prevented
Anton (Aug 17 2024 at 08:14):@bernardino, can you reply on the anaconda issue here?
bernardino (Aug 17 2024 at 08:30):Hey @Anton I happily would but I am not sure what I used...
