Instance of 'HookRunException' when creating new project fix:

Description
I'm trying to use very_good create myproject and it generates an unhandled exception.

Steps To Reproduce

1. type very_good create myproject

Expected Behavior
It creates the project

Screenshots
Added screenshot

Additional Context
I just started using mason, probably incorrectly, and it looks like I may have broke the vgv stuff. Any ideas? I tried to deactivate/reactivate and still no luck.

Hi @wednesdei 👋
Thanks for opening an issue!

I'm unable to reproduce on MacOS but will check on Windows first thing in the morning. In the meantime I recommend trying to deactivate mason_cli and very_good_cli and reactivate very_good_cli:

dart pub global deactivate mason_cli
dart pub global deactivate very_good_cli

dart pub global activate mason_cli
dart pub global activate very_good_cli

Also, did you install mason_cli via pub or homebrew? If you did it via homebrew I highly recommend updating to ensure you have the latest version.

Let me know if that helps and sorry for the inconvenience!

All good, no problem. I did try to deactivate, and reactivate, unfortunately it didn't fix it. I also tried a dart pub cache clean, flutter clean, and then try again with no success. I'm just trying to remember what I was doing before the issue started. I think I deleted a project folder, and did a pub cache clean/flutter clean. I'm not sure if that might have cause the issue, nothing else really stands out.

I am also experiencing this issue.

Any solution yet @felangel ? I really need to get a project started

[felangel]

@lazicah can you provide the output of flutter doctor -v?

I haven't tried to use the very_good cli until today, and it is now working. I had to recently re-install VS Code, and I also re-installed the very_good cli. Looks like it all works now, I can close this out if that works for you, my issue disappeared.

[felangel]

I'd recommend closing this for now if we don't have reproduction steps. I'm happy to reopen this if others are able to provide reproduction steps 👍
