Unable to start PAT Local Server

There are several of us at my firm that have been unable to initiate the Parametric Analysis Tool local server for the past 1-2 months. We have never had an issue with the tool prior to this.

I have worked through every step in this post to no avail: What do I do about a "Server Error" in PAT 2.0.0?

We are all receiving the following error from the rails.log file: "/Applications/OpenStudio-2.9.1/ParametricAnalysisTool.app/Contents/Resources/OpenStudio-server/gems/gems/execjs-2.7.0/lib/execjs/runtimes.rb:58:in `autodetect': Could not find a JavaScript runtime. See https://github.com/rails/execjs for a list of available runtimes. (ExecJS::RuntimeUnavailable)"

We are all using Apple MacBooks and have replicated this issue on at least OS V2.7, 2.8, 2.9, & 2.9.1. The sudden onset makes me think this is associated with an update or change to the Apple JavaScriptCore .

Any assistance would be much appreciated.
