nodebb.min.js not updated

[jiangcaiyang]

I'm using nodebb 1.4.2.
When I type ./nodebb build, it have the following output:

3/2 15:47:59 [6125] - info: [build] Building javascript
3/2 15:47:59 [6125] - info: [build] js => Completed in 0.012s

When I deleted public/nodebb.min.js, and retype ./nodebb build, I have the following output:

./nodebb build

3/2 15:49:22 [6212] - info: [build] js => Completed in 0.007s

3/2 15:49:27 [6212] - info: [build] Asset compilation successful. Completed in 5.645s.

But nodebb.min.js not generated.
If I run ./nodebb dev, it shows:

3/2 15:49:43 [6264] - warn: [meta/js] /home/jiangcaiyang/WebProject/QtDream/public/nodebb.min.js not found on disk, did you run ./nodebb build?

Maybe ./nodebb build is useless and cannot generate nodebb.min.js.
How to generate nodebb.min.js, so the code could be updated?

@jiangcaiyang it should be generating nodebb.min.js and acp.min.js. I'd suggest trying ./nodebb reset and then ./nodebb upgrade and then ./nodebb build, and see if that does it.

@PitaJ I got the following error:

./nodebb reset

I don't know how to resolve this problem.

[PitaJ]

@jiangcaiyang run npm install --production

[jiangcaiyang]

@PitaJ The error seems to recur.

[jiangcaiyang]

@PitaJ My another instance has the same problem when running ./nodebb reset.

[PitaJ]

@jiangcaiyang did you try this?

npm i
./nodebb upgrade
./nodebb build
./nodebb reset -a
./nodebb dev

[jiangcaiyang]

@PitaJ Thanks you! nodebb.min.js updated successfully.
