Research direction

Start with CredentialManagerUnix.WriteCredentialLinux at line 289, then inspect CLIConfigurator.ConfigureAsync at line 278 and reproduce the reported reconfigure command in a CircleCI Ubuntu environment. Done means the command stores the credentials without the “/dev/null” address error and exits successfully.

Description

I am running this command in my circleci pipeline

msstore reconfigure --tenantId $TENANT_ID --sellerId $SELLER_ID --clientId $CLIENT_ID --clientSecret $CLIENT_SECRET

Even after confirming that my secrets are correct and installing the msstore-cli, I get this error.
I am using the circleci ubuntu image (default)
