(eval):3: operation not permitted: /dev/nulleval

This is the output I am seeing on my macbook with ventura latest update, this caused when I tried installing git-lfs.

But not able to get rid of this.

Tried the following:

  • Going to settings, privacy and giving the full disk access to terminal.
  • Hard-Resetting the terminal.

This it the output after I do ls -ld /dev /dev/null (if it helps)

OUTPUT:

dr-xr-xr-x 4 root wheel 4769 Dec 17 12:30 /dev

crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 0x3000002 Dec 17 12:48 /dev/null

  • /dev/nulleval isn't a thing that exists, or should exist. I don't think this is a permissions problem, it's more likely to be due to a typo something in a script somewhere. When exactly do you get this error? – Gordon Davisson Dec 17 '22 at 08:43
  • It just pops when I start terminal. – Abhishek Mamdapure Dec 17 '22 at 08:58
  • Then it's probably something in one of your shell initialization files. If you're using zsh (the default in recent versions of macOS), it'll be ~/.zshrc or ~/.zlogin or ~/.zshenv or ~/.zsomethingelse. If you're using bash, it'll be ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_login or ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc or something. There are a lot of previous questions about tracking down errors in these files on [Superuser](https://superuser.com) and [Ask Different](https://apple.stackexchange.com) and the [Unix & Linux stackexchange](https://unix.stackexchange.com). Do some searching and investigating. – Gordon Davisson Dec 17 '22 at 10:32
  • Tried a few things (including reset settings for bash, uninstalling zsh) still this is unresolved. – Abhishek Mamdapure Dec 29 '22 at 04:18
  • Did you check the files I mentioned? And what do you mean by "reset settings for bash" (deleting those files? Something else?) and "uninstalling zsh" (it's part of the macOS install, not really something you can remove)? – Gordon Davisson Dec 29 '22 at 05:36
