Note: the CLI still works. It just also prints this output on any command.

@jdxcode looks like Jesper owns this (https://www.npmjs.com/package/heroku-open-dashboard) let's see if he'll give it to us

Hi @jesperfj! 👋

[jdx]

looks like the last PR to the package added the files attribute, it just needs to be pushed to npm

[jesperfj]

Just pushed @zeke @jdxcode.

I have similar issue with heroku plugins:install heroku-fork

I'm trying to change the Region:

Any kind of help would be welcome! Thnx in advance!

@ivanakruljac I was having trouble doing the same thing. The way I solved it was by:

1. Run heroku plugins:install heroku-fork
2. Follow the file path: /home/ivana/.local/share/heroku/node_modules/heroku-fork/package.json
3. Open the package.json file in the heroku-fork directory
4. Add the 'files' field with the value ["*"], this is usually an optionally field and ["*"] is the assumed value when it is omitted so it shouldn't create any strange errors for you. Next time you run the command from step 1. this change will be overwritten:

   
   "name": "heroku-fork",
   "version": "4.1.27",
   "description": "Heroku CLI plugin to fork an existing app into a new app.",
   "main": "index.js",
   "files":["*"],

@alexandermckay This worked. As you described the change is overwritten when I re-run the command from first step.

[alexandermckay]

@ffmit that's great, happy to help.

[drummonds]

Great this worked for the same error on heroku-guvscale
