Hi My name is jeremy . I’m rather new to using Shopify cli, and I’ve been trying to create a subscription app extension . but after running “Shopify extension create” and choosing my app and extension name , the “initializing project” process stops with this error.(it doesnt give an error when cre…

Try changing shopify-cli\lib\project_types\extension\commands\serve.rb from: def find_available_port(runtime_configuration) return runtime_configuration unless specification_handler.choose_port?(@ctx) chosen_port = Tasks::ChooseNextAvailablePort .call(from: runtime_config…

I need to clarify i was using these instructions that shopify has provided here . and im stuck on the first step

Found it! the problem was my node so i updated it and it works , but now when i run “shopify extension serve” i get the message: X No available ports found to run extension.

See my PR on the Shopify-CLI GitHub for the exact code change: https://github.com/Shopify/shopify-cli/pull/1372

Hmm strange. I wonder if it’s throwing yet another error type and not the ECONNREFUSED or ETIMEDOUT. You can edit the Shopify-CLI code to skip the port check if you know that ports open. It’s clearly a hack-fix and only a temporary solution. On line 47 of shopify-cli\lib\project_types\extension\co…

The file I changed is located at “C:\Ruby30-x64\lib\ruby\gems\3.0.0\gems\shopify-cli-2.1.0\lib\project_types\extension\commands\serve.rb” for me. I’m on windows. To find where your gems are installed run “gem env” in console and find GEM PATHS. For reference, my gem path is “C:/Ruby30-x64/lib/ruby…

I know it’s a work around but would be nice to have an official fix as everytime i update Shopify CLI i need to edit this bit.
