Documentation does not mention you need Rosetta on ARM Mac #774

Closed jeroenvermeulen closed 3 months ago

Bug description Documentation does not mention you need Rosetta on ARM Mac

Expected behavior Documentation should mention for ARM Macs (M1/M2/M3) you need to execute:

softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license

Steps to reproduce the bug / Relevant debug output If you did not install Rosetta, installing plugins will fail with error bad CPU type in executable:

$ tanzu plugin list
[i] The tanzu cli essential plugins have not been installed and are being installed now. The install may take a few seconds.
[i] Installing plugins from plugin group 'vmware-tanzucli/essentials:v1.0.0'
[x] Failed to install plugin 'telemetry:v1.1.0' with target 'global'
[!] unable to install plugin 'telemetry': could not describe plugin "telemetry": fork/exec /Users/jeroenv/Library/Application Support/tanzu-cli/telemetry/v1.1.0_a93519154dc71368d738aec09f9bc964a0c3bcd02a856106ccaddaaf31426636_global: bad CPU type in executable

It took me quite a while to figure out what the problem was.

Sorry you ran into trouble @jeroenvermeulen. I thought Rosetta was standard on all ARM64 Macs. Thanks for reporting, it will help others. I’ll add it to the documentation.

@jeroenvermeulen Could you have a look at #776 to tell me if the proposed documentation is clear enough from your point of view?
