Restore Homebrew Permissions always fails about phpmon

[nicoverbruggen]

I often forget to disable the active services myself, which is why I added Restore Homebrew Permissions in the first place. 😄

Since there's probably something wrong with the AppleScript that handles this fix (on your system specifically), I'll make a special build tonight that dumps the contents of the script so you can run it yourself, and we can get more information about what precisely goes wrong on your system.

(Right now, if AppleScript fails to execute in a native app, all you get is a single nil, which is not exactly helpful.)

I'll ping you when that's available and include further instructions on how we can get to the bottom of this. (I'm assuming you haven't manually removed those folders yet? If you haven't removed them yet, please leave them be for now, thanks!)

Yes, so this is definitely a bug I introduced in v5.7.0. I have the same issue on my work computer. I had to install a dependency earlier today and I tried to run the fix command as well.

Please give this updated build a try: phpmon.zip

This fix resolved the issue on my system, let me know if this fixes it on your system as well.

Thanks for reporting @micpringle!

Do you usually stop the services prior to running brew upgrade or running brew cleanup? You can (usually) avoid this problem with the directories being owned by root by turning all services off beforehand either via PHP Monitor, or via valet stop.

I will take a look tonight and see what could be causing this, since the First Aid fix should definitely work.

I haven't been, no. I'll certainly try that next time there's an available upgrade 👍

It's dnsmasq that's been upgraded this time (2.88 ~> 2.89), but no, I haven't manually deleted the files so still get the error:

❯ brew cleanup --prune=all
Removing: /opt/homebrew/Cellar/dnsmasq/2.88... (6 files, 529.1KB)
Warning: Directory not empty @ dir_s_rmdir - /opt/homebrew/Cellar/dnsmasq/2.88
==> This operation has freed approximately 529.1KB of disk space.
Error: Could not cleanup old kegs! Fix your permissions on:
  /opt/homebrew/Cellar/dnsmasq/2.88

I'll keep an eye out for the script to try when you post it later. Thanks!

@nicoverbruggen Yep! That build fixes the issue(s) on my system as well 🍻

[nicoverbruggen]

Great, I'll push new builds with this fix to the release and dev channel later tonight then.

Thanks again for reporting the issue! I'll close the issue when the build is live :)

No worries. Thanks so much for the prompt response and fix.
