dockutil 3.0.2 and Sonoma Beta 23A5276g

Tested it here and problem can you share your script

setDockScript.sh.zip

Ok check this script: https://github.com/mvdbent/setDock/blob/main/setDock-defaultDock.sh run it and test it.
I am 100% sure that if you incorporate your part in this everything will work properly!

Hi @mvught, It keeps failing on Sonoma.

sh-3.2# sh /Users/UserA/Desktop/dockItems.sh Dockutil version = 3.0.2 clean-out the Dock adding /Applications/Slack.app /Users/UserA/Desktop/dockItems.sh: line 19: 37174 Trace/BPT trap: 5 launchctl asuser "$uid" sudo -u "${currentUser}" "$@" adding /Applications /Users/UserA/Desktop/dockItems.sh: line 19: 37186 Trace/BPT trap: 5 launchctl asuser "$uid" sudo -u "${currentUser}" "$@" Restarted the Dock Finished creating default Dock

I'm also getting this BPT trap which I think is the cause of not getting the dock configured correctly.

Does anyone else face the same issue?

Try something like this

dockutil="/usr/local/bin/dockutil"
LOGGEDINUSER=$(stat -f '%Su' /dev/console)
uid=$(id -u "${LOGGEDINUSER}")

runAsUser() {  
	if [[ "${LOGGEDINUSER}" != "loginwindow" ]]; then
		launchctl asuser "$uid" sudo -u "${LOGGEDINUSER}" "$@"
	else
		echo "no user logged in"
		exit 1
	fi
}

if [ "$LOGGEDINUSER" == "root" ]; then
    echo "Currently logged in user is root - aborting."
    echo "------------------------------------------------------------"
    exit 1
fi

homeDirectory="/Users/$LOGGEDINUSER/"
runAsUser "$dockutil" --add "/Applications/Google Chrome.app" --no-restart "$homeDirectory"

Using the runasUser function helped

Are you able to reproduce the BPT trap error? Did you figure out what is/was causing the error?

yes I reproduced it, no I didn't have a clue what caused it.
When I tried to run the dockutil commands as sudo (current user) that didn't help. Eventually I tried Armin's way and it worked flawlessly.
