Setup :

@angular/cli@8.1.2
@ionic/cli@6.12.3
cordova@10.0.0
npm@6.14.10
“protractor”: “~5.4.0


Mac OS : Catalina

This is the error I am getting

** Angular Live Development Server is listening on localhost:4200, open your browser on http://localhost:4200/ **
:information_source: ｢wdm｣: Compiled successfully.

This same setup is working on another machine running on M1 chip. I have tried on different computers but not working on any of them except my M1 Macbook Pro.

  • Then port 8100 is reserved, but are u sure ur running ionic serve and not ng serve? – Mostafa Harb Jan 09 '21 at 07:16
  • @MostafaHarb ionic serve is working fine. This error appears on ng e2e command. – MJ_iOSDev Jan 09 '21 at 10:50
  • As per Seamus McCarthy's answer, this is a duplicate of https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65618558/osx-fix-selenium-chromedriver-launch-error-spawn-unknown-system-error-86-bad-cp -- it can likely be fixed by running "npm uninstall protractor && npm install protractor" in your terminal – emery Mar 09 '21 at 22:31

This is an issue with the latest chromedriver on MacOS. Please see detailed resolutions in this ticket.

"As a general solution, simply avoid using the chromedriver that has _m1 in its filename if you are on an Intel mac."

OSX fix Selenium Chromedriver launch error spawn Unknown system error -86 Bad CPU type in executable?
