zsh: permission denied when trying to use flutter

I have been working with flutter for a week now and it runs okay, however I can't use commands such as flutter doctor or flutter upgrade on my terminal nor Android studio. Whenever I try to run a flutter command I get

zsh: permission denied: /Users/name/flutter/bin.

I tried adding the source to nano ~/.zshrc and export PATH, but nothing worked.

Solution

  • I faced this issue when setting up Flutter on my new mac, even after setting the PATH correctly. Turns out i installed the wrong SDK (Window). So make sure to install the correct Flutter SDK on your respective OS.

    For MacOS : https://docs.flutter.dev/get-started/install/macos

    For Window : https://docs.flutter.dev/get-started/install/windows

    For Linux : https://docs.flutter.dev/get-started/install/linux

    For ChromeOS : https://docs.flutter.dev/get-started/install/chromeos
