I'm getting the same error when I try to use it, as well. @sly lagoon Any suggestions?

My guess is that some assets were not included in the published release. We can look into this more tomorrow. As a workaround, you clone the main branch and build it.

Cool thanks for the workaround!

Thanks @sly lagoon, will fix be distributed with new version soon? This is critical for our soroban cli gui project (grant)

@jolly beacon still trying to troubleshoot. Did you try cloning soroban-tools and running cargo run -- contracts init ../path/to/new/project? It works for me.

@jolly beacon @half cradle just a heads up, here is a PR that should fix this issue: https://github.com/stellar/soroban-tools/pull/1196

GitHub

fix: embed the init template files in the build by elizabethengelma...

What
Embed the contract_init_template files in the binary using rust-embed to make sure that they are accessible to the init command to copy to the user's filesystem.
Why
Fixes the issue report...
