hs commands not working

[JDutton]

I sucessfully installed the local dev tools a few days ago, connecting VS code to my sandbox/developer account. I was able to push up a new theme I was working on as part of Hubspot Academy's CMS for Developers Course. However, yesterday when as I continued to watch the videos and it came time to create a template using hs create, it gave me an error that it didnt recognize hs commands. Am I missing something here? A step? Am I supposed to be using a command to login or something?

Hi @JDutton Are you on mac by chance? I'm very new to the CLI on mac and also experienced a similar issue. I used the CLI on windows for a long time without any problems. It was due to mac user permissions and having to install node.js locally instead of globally.

I had one of the developers I work with walk through the EACCESS steps with me and TBH it was waaay over my head, but he figured it out. Then a week or so later I tried the CLI again, and it didn't work again.

This thread in the dev slack goes through what we did to troubleshoot, we never quite found the resolution for me, but maybe some of the earlier steps will help you troubleshoot.

This community thread also might have the answer for you.

I don't do a lot of local development, mostly converting global modules and updates, so I've procrastinated a bit on finding the answer and would love to know what you learn if you're able to figure it out!
