Photoshop communication error

[andrejoblakceltra]

When setting up generator development environment exactly as described here: https://github.com/adobe-photoshop/generator-core/wiki/Generator-Development-Environment-Setup and then running generator with node app.js -v -f ../plugins results in the following error:

[info:core 14:46:02.233 C:\development\photoshop\generator\generator-core\lib\generator.js:103:17] Launching with config:
{}
Communication error: 2
[warning:core 14:46:02.255 C:\development\photoshop\generator\generator-core\lib\generator.js:131:25] photoshop communications error: {"error":"Photoshop communication error: 2"}

[info:core 14:46:02.261 C:\development\photoshop\generator\generator-core\lib\generator.js:117:25] Photoshop connection closed
Exiting with code 0: Generator close event

I'm using:

• node version 5.4.0
• npm version 5.0.2
• generator core version 3.11.0 (commit 41ed188450bbd1d7a65808067963e0aaa9d6ba2b)
• generator assets version 2.9.0 (commit e15e68ba81751f9b585152eb9b5e1f2ec2113e6f)
• Photoshop CC 2017.1.1 (20170425.r.252 x64)
• Windows 10 Professional

I get the same error on MacOS with:

• node version 6.10.3
• npm version 3.10.10
• generator core version 3.11.0 (commit 41ed188450bbd1d7a65808067963e0aaa9d6ba2b)
• generator assets version 2.9.0 (commit e15e68ba81751f9b585152eb9b5e1f2ec2113e6f)
• Photoshop CC 2017.0.1 (20161130.r.29 x64)
• Mac OS X version 10.11.3

This started happening today when I updated generator core from the repository.

The master branch of this repository is not guaranteed to run on the released version of photoshop. Please use the version of generator-core that's equivalent to the built-in version of generator included in your photoshop (likely 3.8.4).
