Update, merge issue..

[julian]

@MySelfLuls Cerulean is quite out of date, I wouldn't recommend installing it.

npm unlink nodebb-plugin-cerulean

Then try again.

@julian Followed latest instructions in this post, got this.

Seems like the colors module wasn't installed properly... try reinstalling it? npm i colors

[Danny McWilliams]

I knew i'd encountered a problem like that before, that worked, though subsequently I ran upgrade then it was the same issue with "cookie", then upgrade, then "crc", now "debug". Is there a quicker way to find all those needed if more follow?

[Danny McWilliams]

@julian would this bunch be causing the problem now that the dependency requirements are more strict?

If so, any hints? Stuck on this:

[julian]

@Danny-McWilliams Nope, that should only apply to bundled plugins (mentions, vanilla/lavender/persona theme, markdown, etc).

If you're getting more of those "cannot find module" errors, then perhaps your dependencies were not completely installed.

Please run npm install.

[Danny McWilliams]

Ok @julian just did - same result, sadly. unmet dependency list then the same as the second picture.

Tried to start nodebb, this was in log.

[codejet]

@julian i run ./nodebb upgrade after it looks successful npm i command ?

./nodebb upgrade

Usually when I get issues like this, I have to do an npm cache clean and then an npm install or npm rebuild

[codejet]

for some reason my ./nodebb upgrade script after git pull missed a ton of modules

[leksar]

trying to update, but npm i shows me that

Tried to do npm unlink nodebb-plugin-spam-be-gone and npm unlink nodebb-theme-ifsta-ui, but the result is the same. Any ideas ?

[codejet]

try npm uninstall nodebb-theme-vanilla and then reinstall it again, it might install the version that satisfies the dependancy.

Save changes made to vanilla too if need be

[leksar]

same result

[codejet]

@leksar try run ./nodebb upgrade
paste error from th@ ?

[codejet]

sounds like unlinking those plugins did nothing.

I'm out of idea's but that was why it was complaining, maybe uninstall them if they aren't vital

I dont use shoutbox or that other thingo

I'm not using them too, just tried for some time. The weird thing is that even uninstalling doesn't help. I would remove them manually, if there is a way.
