Could this be related?

@AllanOricil - Thanks for reporting. Can you please try again and close this issue if it works for you? I believe I just fixed it.

[AllanOricil]

@shetzel the error is still happening

[amphro]

@AllanOricil can you run with --dev-debug? More specifically I want to know what URL it is failing on. Can you access https://developer.salesforce.com/media/salesforce-cli/manifest.json from your terminal?

[AllanOricil]

Here is the output. Maybe your service is blocking because of the user agent?

And I can access that json from the url

I also noticed that I can't perform Web OAuth flow from that machine. It might be related. After entering the login credentials it stays loading forever a link. And when I refresh that link it says that an error happened.

I'm also having this exact problem but from WSL. I actually uninstalled WSL and started from scratch only to run into the issue again. Here is the error from the debug output.

[mrichmon12]

So it looks like wsl-x64 and linux-arm64 are platforms that are not available in the manifest.json file. Does this means these platforms are no longer supported? I've been using the CLI on WSL for quite a long time without any problems.

Here is another issue with the same underlying problem: #610

I think they are just missing. Because sfdx is based on Oclif which is written for Node which supports these platforms.

[mrichmon12]

@AllanOricil were you able to get Web OAuth flow to work at all? That is my main issue right now. Appears to overlap with #783. I'll try the workaround suggested there.

No :/

[mrichmon12]

So I moved over to the npm installation method, but the latest version of the CLI also fails to successfully web auth there as well. Downgrading to 7.76.0 seemed to do the trick.

[AllanOricil]

@amphro @mrichmon12 I solved my problem uninstalling sfdx-cli completly and installing it again with npm.
I followed this tutorial

But

I can't run the update command. It still outputs the same error message

@AllanOricil As per the Salesforce CLI Setup Guide, when installed via npm you should use npm install --global sfdx-cli to update.

If you are looking for a specific version you can specify the version number as well (e.g.: npm install --global [email protected])

When I downgraded to 7.76.0 my OAuth issues were resolved.

The sfdx update doesn't work for npm installs and will output why. The fact that you are still getting that error @AllanOricil implies that it is still running the installer version. What is the output of which sfdx?

@amphro I made sure to have everything uninstalled before installing again with npm. It is running the npm "version".

[mrichmon12]

It looks like it must be checking the manifest before indicating it should be updated using npm?

[amphro]

That is odd. The right way to update an npm installed version is to use npm.

I see it is checking the channel then outputting the message:

Can you run with --dev-debug?

[AllanOricil]

@amphro I can't auth to any org when using sfdx from a raspbery pi. Could this be related somehow? Basically every time I try to auth the browser just keeps loading and nothing happens.

[mshanemc]

I think the auth thing is related to #881 which was bothering win/linux for a while earlier this year. It's fixed on recent releases--what's running on the pi?

[AllanOricil]

This issue is fixed and I was able to auth to an org on the pi. Thank you. I just had to uninstall sfdx, and then install it again (v7.94)

[deshartman]

Seems it is back again

@deshartman you should file an issue in the Twilio CLI repo.
