Theme Error After 0.7.2 Update

pichalite

@scottalanmiller you may have to reinstall the theme.

What would cause Persona to not work?

scottalanmiller

Is there a handy command for reinstalling Persona?

pichalite

@scottalanmiller not sure why it doesn't work.

npm i nodebb-theme-persona

scottalanmiller

That got me one more step. After that uglifier-js was missing. Installed that. Now this is the error and the admin page is completely gone...

Which is the error that you got too. It appears that you never solved it and just did a fresh install instead?

pichalite

@scottalanmiller Yes, my installation is just a test installation so it didn't matter even if I lose anything so, I did a fresh install.

scottalanmiller

That seems to be the trend. The upgrade process just doesn't work. Even with tons of manual intervention every time, it's a new adventure each time.

I have the same error. Theme of Lavender.
=(

Kalbaskin

I did:
npm i nodebb-theme-persona
npm i nodebb-theme-lavender
npm i uglify-js

It helped me.

scottalanmiller

I did the updates on another forum that we run and they went smoothly.

Didn't work, same error.

scottalanmiller

Not sure what happened but tons of files were missing. I did a full upgrade cycle again starting from scratch and all was fine. No idea why there was an issue but all is fixed now. Normal upgrade worked.

@scottalanmiller try npm i express

oh fixed. np
