idb integration is not working on M1 Macs #3497

swrobel · 2022-03-04T00:10:45Z

🐛 Bug Report

When idb is installed, regardless of the "Enable physical iOS devices" setting, Flipper prints the below warning over and over ad infinitum, and will not connect to simulator devices. Uninstalling idb resolves the issue. If you look at the last line of the log, it seems that it's attempting to look in the Intel Mac path for idb_companion, rather than the correct path when using the native version of homebrew on M1 macs.

With idb installed:

After uninstalling idb:

To Reproduce (on M1 Mac)

brew install idb-companion
pip3 install fb-idb
Run Flipper

Environment

macOS 12.2.1
Flipper 0.137.0

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Pickleboyonline · 2022-04-02T07:36:06Z

I used a symbolic link at /usr/local/bin/idb_companion that points to /opt/homebrew/bin/idb_companion to get around this.

zhaofang · 2022-04-14T02:56:13Z

ln -s /opt/homebrew/bin/idb /usr/local/bin

akinlekan28 · 2022-04-25T12:14:07Z

I am having this same issue on my M1 pro

danieldunderfelt · 2022-12-07T05:25:23Z

This issue is still present in 0.176 on MacOS Ventura 13.0.1 (M1 Max). The symlink method works, but Flipper should really support M1 macs.

heath-clink · 2023-10-23T18:59:28Z

This bug is actually in idb. See: facebook/idb#835

renanmav · 2023-11-16T16:25:58Z

can devs do something

dieptx · 2023-12-05T04:25:05Z

any update here? Still happened on chip M1 Pro 😭

stanislavkhatko · 2024-06-29T05:29:32Z

As you installed idb_companion with brew and idb with pip you need to link path of idb_companion to path of idb

ln -s /opt/homebrew/bin/idb_companion /usr/local/bin/idb_companion

SamiChab · 2024-07-02T17:44:34Z

@stanislavkhatko exactly !
brew list idb-companion -> get the installation folder (/opt/homebrew/Cellar/idb-companion/1.1.8/bin/idb_companion for example)
Then : sudo ln -s /opt/homebrew/Cellar/idb-companion/1.1.8/bin/idb_companion /usr/local/bin
I had to previously add a link to idb in the same folder : sudo ln -s /Users/<user_name>/.local/bin/idb /usr/local/bin

Mohammed-Aljasem · 2024-07-05T13:08:58Z

You Saved my day, Thank you.

vyhungle · 2024-07-16T08:29:28Z

thank you @SamiChab

kylanhurt · 2024-08-27T16:41:31Z

This worked for me: sudo ln -s /opt/homebrew/bin/idb_companion /usr/local/bin
