Description

I successfully built Wox on my local machine with just dev and it seems unable to start properly. Basically I can see the wox icon from dock, but I can not see any open window.

I am not familiar with how to debug app like this, but when I tried to run the wox file from wox.app/Contents/MacOS/wox, I can see the following error:

[ERROR:flutter/runtime/dart_vm_initializer.cc(41)] Unhandled Exception: DioException [connection error]: The connection errored: Connection refused This indicates an error which most likely cannot be solved by the library.
Error: SocketException: Connection refused (OS Error: Connection refused, errno = 61), address = localhost, port = 50201

Log

please upload wox log to help identify your bug.

• ~/.wox/log/log if you use macos or linux
  Somehow I can not see any logs from this file. I even added one extra line to log some dummy information at https://github.com/Wox-launcher/Wox/blob/v2/Wox.UI.Flutter/wox/lib/utils/wox_http_util.dart#L34 but still the log file is empty.

I am new to the tech stack used by Wox, so please let me know if I missed anything. Thanks!
