This is on MacOS Catalina, just installed phpstorm 2021.1.1 today and when trying to run it gives this error.
If I just run `pstorm -h` that works fine and gives help menu

Do you have PhpStorm installed from a standalone installer or using ToolBox app? Does /Applications/PhpStorm.app exist?
Ah that might be it, I had standalone installed for about 2 years, then in the last few months found ToolBox and installed PhpStorm from there, within the last month I uninstalled the standalone. The ToolBox is so much easier to manage it. But you're right it was pointing to the manual install first.
I did have both versions installed for about a month, then I got rid of the standalone while the ToolBox version was still installed. Then upgraded to 2021.1.1, and then tried to use pstorm. Don't think I tried it after uninstalling, so that is most likely the reason.
Is there an easy way to remap it?
/Applications/PhpStorm.app
bash: /Applications/PhpStorm.app: No such file or directory
Sure, open the IDE settings in a Toolbox:
Then change the shell script name there:
Thank you that worked.
It's unclear at first what the shell path does, for anyone having the same problems, point the shell path above to something like /usr/local/bin
it'll create the binary in that directory named `phpstorm` then you use that for your commands, for whatever reason it's been renamed from `pstorm` like I had been using.
Works great now, thanks.
You're welcome!
