The latest one includes the nuxt upgrade, as well as the crashing behavior, while the one before that does not crash.

Describe the bug

After the upgrade to nuxt v4 the dev server crashes with the following error:

Could this be a duplicate of nuxt/nuxt#23832 ?

[dyeske61283]

@cernymatej I don't think so tbh.
Because I just tried out a new blank nuxt project with deno using

deno -A npm:nuxi@latest init

and it worked for nuxt 3.17.*
After upgrading it to nuxt v4 the above crash happended - as said even on a clean project

[danielroe]

the process.exit(0) issue was fixed in the latest nuxt cli (included in 4.0.1) but you need to provide new permissions to deno to access your tmpdir, which would be via a flag

we should document this

(or you can disable sockets with NUXT_SOCKET=0)

[dyeske61283]

@danielroe
The workaround with disabling sockets works, but somehow I cannot get deno to get access to my tmpdir - even with specifying --allow-all.
I also tried something like this:

deno run dev -o --allow-env=TMPDIR --allow-read="$TMPDIR" --allow-write="$TMPDIR"

That might be an issue with deno, though?

[carsonbird]

Disabling sockets, running NUXT_SOCKET=0 deno task dev works for me. But I also can't find a way to get Deno to use the tmpdir.

Actually, no, it just still doesn't work. Oh, I guess I posted it in the wrong repo, but this is what's happening: nuxt/nuxt#32735
