(unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist)
James
I see that this problem has occurred a few times for people, but sadly for me, I have not been able to fix it.... yet. My guess is that I am doing something rather obvious for it to not work ( well, obvious to most others I suspect ).
I get the " Invalid --log-level value." and the (unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist)
Happy and safe new year everyone.
