Upgrade from 1.8.1 to 1.8.2 failed

I wanted to upgrade to 1.8.2 today but ./nodebb upgrade failed with:

It also fails with node 8:

Here's the whole output with all the gory details.

TLINDEN

I also tried:

rm -rf node_modules
npm cache clear
npm i

with the same results and any nodejs version: it fails to build heapdump.

So, I'm offline now, any help is very appreciated!

serdo

How can I install the script?

TLINDEN

@serdo said in Upgrade from 1.8.1 to 1.8.2 failed:

How can I install the script?

pls open your own thread, thx.

<baris>

@tlinden try this npm r heapdump then then npm i again. Also make sure heapdump isn't in package.json. Also keep in mind if you use npm@5 it can remove plugins in node_modules folder if they are not saved in package.json.

TLINDEN

I'm not sure if I agree with npm's idea of package management:

WTF?

However, since this is a test folder anyway, I just removed the plugin, did the npm r heapdump && npm cache clean, removed "heapdump" from package.json, checked if it is referenced in any other module (it is not), checked if the directory node_modules/heapdump doesn't exist anymore (it didn't) and executed npm i afterwards.

It seems that it updated all the required modules, it displayed the long final tree. But in the end, there were still compiling errors and it finishes with:

Compiler errors are the same, I'm not going to post them again.

TLINDEN

Oh, I just found the module: /home/curv/.npm/heapdump/0.3.7 it's installed within my home directory as well!

I removed it and repeated the above procedure to no avail

Next, I looked where heapdump is being referenced and found npm-shrinkwrap.json from where I removed it as well.

Repeat the procedure. No more "heapdump" errors, but still no success and lots of compiler errors, here's the end of it:

Have you tried deleting the shrinkwrap file and the package lock file?

@tlinden I have no idea why you're getting errors like that. But if you're going to paste errors, make you you provide the whole output, not just some of it.

TLINDEN

well, its many dozen pages of output everytime.

So, here's the whole output.

julian

Oh boy... what a error

If you are seeing weird npm errors, remember to delete npm-shrinkwrap.json, package-lock.json, as well as clearing cache and such.

Double-check your package.json to make sure it doesn't require node-gyp or heapdump, we shouldn't require those.

Honestly if all else fails... install yarn, set package_manager in config.json to yarn, and then yarn...

I did.

Doesn't.

Honestly if all else fails... install yarn, set package_manager in config.json to yarn, and then yarn...

I don't understand. Especially, since before 1.8.2 I had no problem upgrading, I started at 1.7.5 and did it twice successfully.

It's a desaster

julian

Yarn is a different package manager. npm is... a disaster, as you say, sometimes. Configs and caches littered all over the file system that you have no idea what to do to get it working again.

That's why I say use yarn.

TLINDEN

Yes, but how?

julian

Install documentation: yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install

TLINDEN

Nope.

What's interesting though is that it tries to upgrade /package/host/localhost/nodejs-6.13.1/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp/bin/node-gyp.js which is a global package.

julian

Eh... paste your package.json please. Pretty sure you can remove lwip from there. That's not been required for quite awhile.
