Hi guys, I'm getting these error messages when trying to run Backstage locally. Any ideas what it might be? Feels like i have tried everything. I'm running an M1 Mac if that might be something that affects due to difference in architecture from intel based machines.

Can you provide the config file you are using?

#

Sure, this is the app-config.local.yaml i'm using

# Backstage override config for local development

app:
  title: Org Backstage App
  baseUrl: http://localhost:3000

backend: 
  baseUrl: http://localhost:7007
  listen: 
    port: 7007
  database: 
    client: better-sqlite3
    connection: 'memory:'
  cache: 
    store: memory 

# Use docs from local. Avoid S3 and pipe docs publish. 
techdocs:
  builder: 'local' 
  publisher:
    type: 'local' 
  generator:
    runIn: local

And the regular config:

app:
  title: Org Backstage App
  baseUrl: ${BASE_URL_BACKSTAGE}

organization:
  name: Org

backend:
  baseUrl:
    $env: BASE_URL_BACKSTAGE
