Hi @ahjulstad I had the same problem, I was able to bypass by downloading the repository and add it manually on my Julia environment with "]dev path" where the path is the directory with the GenieBuilder.jl.

[hbonnavaud]

Same problem here.
@DiracM can you give more details please? How did you add it manually? Where have you put "]dev path"? How to find the GenieBuilder.jl?

[kongdd]

I have the same issue.

Julia 1.9.4 macOS Sonoma fresh install, server doesn't start in VSCode, attempting to use in REPL didn't help

using GenieBuilder julia> GenieBuilder.create() ERROR: UndefVarError:createnot defined Stacktrace: [1] getproperty(x::Module, f::Symbol) @ Base ./Base.jl:31 [2] top-level scope @ REPL[19]:1
after activating in new folder. Don't know where to go from here.

I no longer have this problem after a fresh installation but the steps that I took was:

1. Download the GitHub repository as a .zip
2. Extract it to a path as for example "C:\GenieBuilder"
3. Open Julia and type "]dev C:\GenieBuilder" to enter the package mode and add the new directory to the environment
4. Hopefully the package should be now detected when you try to open Genie Builder

@technocrat did you find the solution? I have the same issue, don't know how to proceed.

[technocrat]

Nope. I've set it aside because life is just too short, especially at my advanced age.

@s-celles thanks - most likely related to known changes in Julia 1.12 that have been causing issues in multiple packages. I'll debug.

[essenciary]

Working on patch, to be released soon, thank you.

[essenciary]

GenieBuilder is now compatible with Julia 1.12
For new installs, everything should just work.
If you already installed GenieBuilder, make sure to force upgrade GenieBuilder to the latest version, using the dedicated command in VSCode.

[s-celles]

It starts fine now. Thanks @essenciary for this fix.

[essenciary]

Excellent, thanks for letting me know! Follow back if any other issue pops up.
