Ruby error when starting a service

[featdd]

Hi,

I ran some homebrew updates and now when I try to start a service this error appears:

Is this maybe related to this https://github.com/orgs/Homebrew/discussions/5967 & Homebrew/brew#19344 ?

brew services start --all used to work fine, but now throws the same Passed nil into T.must error.

brew doctor told me to untap homebrew/homebrew-services, which I did, but the issue persists.

I also did a complete reinstall of Homebrew, but the problem remains.

Here is my brew config output:

i have exactly same error.

[MikeMcQuaid]

Working on this now, apologies for the delay folks.

@featdd @CodeCook83 sorry, this issue happened after the migration of services from this tap to main repository. Could you please try to apply this patch on /opt/homebrew/Library/Homebrew/services/cli.rb file and share your results?

[koenhandekyn]

same issue here, trying patch

[koenhandekyn]

patch not working here, stop works but starts now throws a different error

Bootstrap failed: 5: Input/output error
Try re-running the command as root for richer errors.
Error: Failure while executing; `/bin/launchctl bootstrap gui/501 /Users/koenhandekyn/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql@17.plist` exited with 5.

i had this diff which looks to be fine

[CodeCook83]

Unfortunately @botantony , it didn't work for me. I get the following error message:

 ➜ brew services start --all
Bootstrap failed: 5: Input/output error
Try re-running the command as root for richer errors.
Error: Failure while executing; `/bin/launchctl bootstrap gui/501 /Users/<user>/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.grafana.plist` exited with 5.

It even does not work with root

[botantony]

@koenhandekyn my bad, i messed with conditions, this patch works for me:

[CodeCook83]

With your second suggestion @botantony , I do not get an error, but the problem is not solved and the services do not start

@botantony I'm going to strip out a bunch of typing changes in a PR coming 🔜. We can do strict typing later.
