Startup crash with 1.3.5+

Hey I'm getting startup crashes with the latest releases, going back to 1.3.4 resolves it:

After getting that it then can't restart at all:

Jun 30 08:17:23 chip matterbridge[7099]: CLI: Matterbridge.loadInstance() failed with error: Error: [node-persist][readFile] /home/mb/.matterbridge/storage/.matterbridge/c6724947ca70506d3d4794dd710813af1a1ef8e646852dba3fe0dea6a2aa7911 does not look like a valid storage file!

The file is 0 bytes, after deleting it and going back to 1.3.4 it contains:

{"key":"matterbridgeLatestVersion","value":"1.3.7"}

---

I'm running in childbridge mode with the latest matterbridge-zigbee2mqtt (2.1.4) and matterbridge-home-assistant (1.3.6) plugins. I don't see any obvious BigInt changes, let me know any other info you need.

Interesting ... but yes bigint is not handled by JSON.stringify by default ... @Luligu We have extra stiff in matter,js to stringify correctly including bigint

Hi,
thanks for letting me know.
Fixed with

[1.3.8] - 2024-07-01

Fixed

• [matterbridge]: Fixed crash in childbridge mode

@Apollon77 thanks me too of course but the problem is express. I will sanitize fabricInfo.

All good here again with 1.3.8, thx!

[Luligu]

Great!
Thanks again.
