'Admin' and 'Open Site' buttons broken (again) after update

[logicelf]

Bug Summary

Following update to Local 6.3.0 on macOS 12.0.1, both site access buttons do nothing.

Steps to reproduce

• Open Local
• Start any site
• Attempt to visit frontend or admin with either button

Console log shows:
Error: Invalid package /Local.app/Contents/Resources/app.asar

Local log shows an unhandled rejection on every button event:
{“thread”:“main”,“reason”:{},“p”:{},“eventId”:“3c6b74defdf64b678b4235886e1328a6”,“level”:“warn”,“message”:“Unhandled Rejection.”,“timestamp”:“2022-02-28T11:21:57.364Z”}

Looks like that Electron upgrade isn’t as shiny as it looked …

6.3 upgrade. Can't login and use tools

Hi all, Thank you for your help tracking this down. We have identified the fix and will have the patch in our next release of Local. In the meantime, the solution is as described above: Open Local’s Preferences and select a browser under Appearance & Behavior. Links should begin working inside Local again. More context: A change in Local v6.3.0 started looking for the defaultBrowser field in Local’s app settings; for some users, if a default browser had never been selected, this field was empt…

That works - thanks very much (that was becoming very tedious).
