When i use the command langflow run, I get the error below.
Apple Macbook Pro m3.
VSCode
Python 3.11.9
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Go to command prompt.
langflow run
See error bellow.
$ langflow run
Error:
objc[31704]: +[__NSCFConstantString initialize] may have been in progress in another thread when fork() was called. We cannot safely call it or ignore it in the fork() child process. Crashing instead. Set a breakpoint on objc_initializeAfterForkError to debug.

This error message you're encountering is related to issues with the Objective-C runtime on macOS, particularly when using forked processes. It is common in applications that use Python's multiprocessing or other similar functionality in a macOS environment.
To address this issue, you can try the following steps:
Update Python and Packages
Ensure you are using the latest version of Python and that all your packages are up to date. Some issues might be resolved with the latest updates.
Set Environment Variable
Setting the OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY environment variable to YES can sometimes help to bypass this issue. You can set this variable in your .zshrc file or directly in your terminal session.
In your .zshrc file: add export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES
Or in your current terminal session: export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES (Then Click enter)
After adding it to your .zshrc, don't forget to reload the file: source ~/.zshrc
Here’s an example of your .zshrc file with the environment variable set:
Environment variable to fix the Objective-C fork issue
export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES
Restart Your Terminal
After making these changes, restart your terminal or source your .zshrc file: source ~/.zshrc
Test the Application
Try running your application again to see if the issue is resolved:
$ langflow run
These steps should help mitigate the Objective-C runtime issues on macOS when forking processes. If the problem persists, consider looking into specific issues related to the libraries or frameworks you are using.
This worked for me by adding the export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES into my .zshrc file and running the $ langflow run command.
