Vite Server did not start - error when zipping and trying on another pc

[dyardy]

Describe the bug

I used pmpm pack:zip This creates a zip file of the contents of the extension directory. I copied to another pc and tried to load unpacked in developer mode in chrome. The extension loaded however when I click on the icon, I get a popup saying vite server did not start.

I also tried this on development workstation and found the same issue. How best can I zip and share?

thanks
