ares-inspect luna-send command failed

I'm trying to debug my webos3 tv but I keep getting the following error:

ares-inspect --device web30 com.starz.lgtv.app_0.0.1_all.ipk 
ares-inspect ERR! ares-inspect: Error: luna-send command failed (not exist)

It doesn't say anywhere in the documentation what luna-send is and it's closed source. I'm running on mac using the cli for webos. Is there anything I need to install?

Thanks

Solution

  • By trial and error, I found that you need to omit the version numbers for it to work:

    ares-inspect --device web30 com.starz.lgtv.app --open

    Don't forget the --open argument to open the inspector. :-)

    The documentation doesn't explicitly say that you need to omit it but it is inferred in the demo code:
