Cannot focus space due to an error with the scripting-addition

[braun-steven]

I've just switched from koekeishiya/yabai to your fork. It seems that the scripting-additions don't work though. I've uninstalled yabai and installed your fork with

brew tap FelixKratz/formulae
brew install --HEAD felixkratz/formulae/fyabai

I've put the following in yabairc

launchctl unload -F /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.WindowManager.plist > /dev/null 2>&1 &
sudo yabai --load-sa

and ran

echo "Add sudoer manually:\n '$(whoami) ALL = (root) NOPASSWD: sha256:$(shasum -a 256 $(which yabai) | awk "{print \$1;}") $(which yabai) --load-sa' to '/private/etc/sudoers.d/yabai'"

to update /private/etc/sudoers.d/yabai accordingly. Then restarted the system just to be safe.

Running a space focus change results in:

$ yabai -m space --focus 3
cannot focus space due to an error with the scripting-addition.

Do you have any idea where I can start debugging?

Edit:

• I just reverted to koekeishiya/yabai and repeated the above steps and the space focus change works (no scripting additions error). Do I need to do something specific for your fork to make the scripting additions work?

Try: sudo yabai --uninstall-sa before uninstalling yabai and installing fyabai. After installing fyabai try sudo yabai --load-sa

This resolved the issue, thanks!
