Hi,

I am having problem when trying to run peacock on my Mac Monterey:

The error is indicating you must first build a binary for which Peacock can interface with. For MOOSE, this usually means either building the test suite, or modules:

cd ~/projects/moose/test
make
# or
cd ~/projects/moose/modules
make

Once either (or both) of those locations are built, you can then invoke peacock while somewhere within that path:

cd ~/projects/moose/test/tests/kernels/simple_diffusion
peacock -i simple_diffusion.i
#       ^instructing peacock to run the simple_diffusion.i input file in this directory

peacock is designed to search for a binary in this current directory. If not found, it goes 'up' one directory and searches there. It does this until it can't go up any more directories.
