    Hi, I have tried to update following “Updating for New Versions” my linux (opensuse 15.5)-blender(4.0.2) installation but the app manager doesn’t start neither from blender button nor running from the verge3d dir:
    python manager/server.py BLENDER I’ve found somewhere in the forum.
    the first opens the browser telling:
    App Manager Connection Error
    Could not connect to the local server!
    Please launch App Manager from the modelling suite, or via desktop icon / Start menu.

    from the command line I get:

     File "manager/server.py", line 432
        async def runAsync(self, func, *args, **kwargs):
                ^
    SyntaxError: invalid syntax

    with the system python 2.7.18

    with python 3 (3.6.15) instead python3 manager/server.py BLENDER gives

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/opt/blender/verge3d_blender/manager/lib/importlib_metadata/_compat.py", line 12, in <module>
        from typing import Protocol
    ImportError: cannot import name 'Protocol'
    
    During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    AttributeError: module 'typing' has no attribute '_SpecialForm'

    some hints?
    thanks

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, the minimal version of Python required to run App Manager is 3.7. See the modelling suits section here. You might install python 3.11 using zypper:

    Tanks again, installing python 3.11 solved the problem and it’s working fine, I can keep on testing with the new release.
    Best regards
