Hi @samargill,

cc - @kautuk_sahni 

This happens when CMD tries to open the localhost automatically in the browser.
I found a workaround for this issue. You can use the —-no-open flag to bypass the automatic functionality and manually open the localhost in the browser of your choice.
Use this command - aem up --no-open
Then the simulator keeps running.

I know that I am late for this, but I faced this error only yesterday. After trying all the things possible, I accidentally came across this flag when I fired the command wrongly, and the suggestions came up. 

I hope this helps someone someday.

Thanks and regards,
Darpan Aneja

Hi @samargill 
The spawn UNKNOWN error might occur if the version of Node.js or NPM is outdated or corrupted. Please try to update the NPM and Node js

 

If the issue persists, consider reinstalling or updating the AEM environment you're working with.

  • Delete the existing AEM project’s node_modules folder
  • Clear the npm cache: npm cache clean --force
  • Reinstall the project dependencies: npm install
