Getting error while installing hana-client

[former_member208045]

Hi,

I am getting the following error on Mac OS when trying to install hana-client. Please let me know how to resolve this error?

I had the same problem (occurred upon npm i) and could resolve as follows:

Install brew on intel architecture as described in https://github.com/Homebrew/discussions/discussions/2845

In case of access issues in the installation, this might help:
sudo chown -R "$USER":admin /usr/local

Check the architecture in shell :
arch

Check the running brew version:
which brew

This should be in usr/local for the intel version, if you get /opt/homebrew/bin/brew, this is the apple silicon version, did not work for me.

Install node 16 on Intel architecture:
arch -x86_64 brew install node@16

Make node known:
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/node@16/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc

Optional: Set VS Code to run with rosetta

-> in finder search for code.app

-> command I

-> check option: open with rosetta
