What is this error? PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/dev/shm'

Question

I am working on the Mac OS with VS code. I have written a init.py file but I am getting an error

For detailed output, run func with --verbose flag.    
[2022-02-17T08:48:00.818Z] Traceback (most recent call last):

Does anyone know how to solve this problem. I have also tried to remove parts of host.json as discussed in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/396617/azure-functions-core-tools-error-osx-devshmazurefu.html. I have tried stack overflow ideas but does not work.

Please can anybody help.

@santra ,

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

It appears that this issue has been fixed in the latest version of the function core tools. V4-latest

Also this issue will be fixed at the python functions level as well. However I dont have the ETA at the moment, I will update this thread once its released.

I hope this helps!
