Description

I'm trying to setup an old Photon that I had lying around, but I can't even get basic things to work with the CLI. I tried installing the CLI both via the installer and via node package. I have installed the other dependencies such as DFU-util. I have node version 14.20.1 and npm 9.5.1.

For example when I run "particle upgrade", it crashes with what looks like a node error:

node[15415]: ../src/node_api.cc:1286:napi_status napi_release_threadsafe_function(napi_threadsafe_function, napi_threadsafe_function_release_mode): Assertion `(func) != nullptr' failed.

Steps to reproduce

I'm not sure how reproducible this will be for everyone out there, but I think just trying to install particle cli on ubuntu 22.04 and running "particle update" may be enough. If not maybe also having node version 14.20.1 and npm 9.5.1

Expected result

Update runs fine

Actual result

Crash

Environment

Tell us about your setup:

  • OS: Ubuntu 22.04.2
  • Node (run node -v): 14.20.1
  • NPM (run npm -v): 9.5.1
  • Particle CLI (run particle version): 3.7.0

I'm not sure if you're still struggling with this, but using the latest version of Node (v18), running particle usb configure to install the udev rules, and then restarting the udev daemon with udevadm control -R resolved this issue for me.

Seems like the particle-cli just couldn't find the device causing the crash.
