[GitHub] [cordova-ios] CodeWithOz opened a new issue #1221: unable to run ios simulator, possible regression due to simctl update
CodeWithOz opened a new issue #1221:
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/issues/1221
# Bug Report
I'm no longer able to use `cordova run` to start my app with the iphone simulator. This was working on Saturday and it's no longer working today. The error message is:
```
Error: Unhandled error. ('[ios-sim] SyntaxError: Unexpected token u in JSON at position 0\n' +

## Problem
`simctl` now throws an error when trying to get the details of the specified target device, as shown in that error message. The problem appears related to the changes [discussed in this `simctl` issue](https://github.com/ios-control/simctl/issues/27) which led to updating `shelljs` to fix a security vulnerability.
### What is expected to happen?
`cordova run` completes without errors, which was happening as recently as 2 days ago.
### What does actually happen?
See explanation above.
## Information
<!-- Include all relevant information that might help understand and reproduce the problem -->
cordova-ios 6.2.0 on m1 mac
xcode 13
### Command or Code
<!-- What command or code is needed to reproduce the problem? -->
Try `cordova run --emulator --noprepare --nobuild --target="iPhone-13, 15.2" --debug` in a project.
### Environment, Platform, Device
<!-- In what environment, on what platform or on which device are you experiencing the issue? -->

Judging by the thread on the [bug report on simct](https://github.com/ios-control/simctl/issues/30)l, it seems like it might be an easy fix. Hoping it gets fixed quickly.

There was [a report](https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/issues/1219) that simctl was causing npm audit warnings on cordova-ios due to a vulnerable version of shelljs. This led to an [update](https://github.com/ios-control/simctl/issues/27) to simctl to pull in the latest version of shelljs, which seems to have breaking changes around how it handles stdio.
Installing cordova-ios as of Sunday will pull in the latest version of simctl, which currently has a non-vulnerable, but also non-working version of shelljs.

what works for me was to directly install in the project the previews version of the simctl
npm install simctl@2.0.0

This also happened to me this past Friday this was working fine and on Monday, I get that exact same error even recloning the repo and reinstalling everything.

@timbru31 @shazron what would be the "fast" way to return to using the version of `simctl` that doesn't contain the regression? I've tried cloning each dependency and updating the files but installing the final modified cordova-ios is giving an error that the cordova-ios platform failed to fetch.

You can force cordova-ios to use the previous version of simctl as a temporary workaround.
`npm un simctl && npm i simctl@2.0.0 -E -D`
I tried using npm 8's [overrides](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v8/configuring-npm/package-json#overrides) feature, but couldn't seem to get it working. Most likely because npm audit keeps ignoring the override and installing 2.0.1

simctl@2.0.2 was just published with a fix. Sorry about this, I was away (public holidays)

To be clear what I mean is that I forked cordova-ios and updated the `package.json` to use:
```json
...
"ios-sim": "github:CodeWithOz/ios-sim#fix-pin-simctl",
...
```
and the `package-lock.json` now has:
```json

...

I add the platform using `cordova platform add -verbose https://github.com/CodeWithOz/cordova-ios#fix-ios-sim` and get this as part of the error:
```
Using cordova-fetch for https://github.com/CodeWithOz/cordova-ios#fix-ios-sim
fetch: Installing https://github.com/CodeWithOz/cordova-ios#fix-ios-sim to /Users/{user}/Documents/{project}
Running command: npm install https://github.com/CodeWithOz/cordova-ios#fix-ios-sim --save-dev
Command finished with error code 1: npm install,https://github.com/CodeWithOz/cordova-ios#fix-ios-sim,--save-dev
Failed to fetch platform https://github.com/CodeWithOz/cordova-ios#fix-ios-sim
Probably this is either a connection problem, or platform spec is incorrect.
Check your connection and platform name/version/URL.
CordovaError: Error: npm: Command failed with exit code 1 Error output:
sh: oclif-dev: command not found
npm ERR! premature close
```
It seems the relevant line is `Command finished with error code 1: npm install,https://github.com/CodeWithOz/cordova-ios#fix-ios-sim,--save-dev`, so when I ran `npm i` directly in the cordova-ios folder I get a stream of errors like this (abbreviated because it's really really long):
```
...
npm WARN tar ENOENT: no such file or directory, lstat '/Users/{user}/Documents/cordova-ios/node_modules/.staging/rxjs-756692a8/src/operator'
npm WARN tar ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/{user}/Documents/cordova-ios/node_modules/.staging/rxjs-756692a8/src/operators/zipAll.ts'
npm WARN tar ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/{user}/Documents/cordova-ios/node_modules/.staging/rxjs-756692a8/_esm2015/LICENSE.txt'
...
```
Any ideas on what the solution could be for me?
