SYS_CONFLICT:1004 error in the BrowserStack Binary

Explanation and next steps

Error Code 1004
Fatal Yes, this is an error that the Binary can’t auto-recover from, and the process will exit with exit code 126.
Class SYS_CONFLICT
Class Meaning This class of errors arises by configuration conflicts between the parameters that the BrowserStack Binary is trying to start with and any restrictions placed either by BrowserStack or your system settings.
Message(s) [ERROR] “browserstack-fork“ is a reserved name, please use a different local identifier
Error Meaning You can pass a string to name a running instance of the BrowserStack Binary using the “–local-identifier“ flag. However, the name “browserstack-fork“ is reserved for internal processing in the Binary and cannot be used as a local identifier.
Mitigation Steps You can follow any of the following steps:

* Pass a different alphanumeric string to “–local-identifier“
* Start the process without passing the “–local-identifier“ flag

Note: The second option will only work if there isn’t another instance of the Binary already running on your system without a local identifier, since only one instance of the Binary (without a local identifier) can execute at a time
