Output

The error you're encountering indicates that the `node` binary is trying to load a specific version of the ICU library (`libicui18n.73.dylib`), but it cannot find it. This issue often arises when there's a mismatch between the version of Node.js you're using and the version of the ICU library installed on your system. Here’s how you can fix this issue: --- ### 1. **Update Node.js** The version of Node.js you're using (`21.5.0`) might be incompatible with the ICU library installed on your system. Updating Node.js to the latest stable version can resolve this issue.

1
brew upgrade node
After upgrading, restart your terminal and try running `http-server` again. --- ### 2. **Reinstall ICU4C** The error suggests that the ICU library (`icu4c`) is either missing or the wrong version is installed. You can reinstall it using Homebrew:
1
brew reinstall icu4c
After reinstalling, restart your terminal and try running `http-server` again. --- ### 3. **Link ICU4C** If reinstalling `icu4c` doesn't work, you might need to explicitly link it:
1
brew link --force icu4c
--- ### 4. **Check for Version Mismatch** If the issue persists, check the version of `icu4c` installed on your system:
1
brew info icu4c
Compare this version with the one Node.js is expecting (`libicui18n.73.dylib`). If there’s a mismatch, you may need to install the specific version of `icu4c` that Node.js requires. --- ### 5. **Reinstall Node.js** If none of the above steps work, try reinstalling Node.js:
1
2
brew uninstall node
brew install node
--- ### 6. **Use a Node Version Manager** If you frequently encounter version mismatches, consider using a Node version manager like `nvm` to manage multiple versions of Node.js:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
brew install nvm
mkdir ~/.nvm
echo 'export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"' >> ~/.zshrc
echo '[ -s "/opt/homebrew/opt/nvm/nvm.sh" ] && \. "/opt/homebrew/opt/nvm/nvm.sh"' >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc
nvm install --lts
nvm use --lts
--- ### 7. **Check for System Updates** Ensure your macOS and Homebrew are up to date:
1
2
3
softwareupdate -l
brew update
brew upgrade
--- ### 8. **Debug Further** If the issue persists, you can use `otool` to inspect the dependencies of the `node` binary and see which libraries it’s trying to load:
1
otool -L /opt/homebrew/Cellar/node/21.5.0/bin/node
This will help you identify any other missing or mismatched libraries. --- After following these steps, try running `http-server` again. Let me know if you need further assistance!
