v1.4.0 startup error

[tigger]

@PitaJ said in v1.4.0 startup error:

@MJ try this sequence of commands:

./nodebb stop
npm install [email protected]
./nodebb build
./nodebb start

For me this results in:
4/12 04:11 [14399] - warn: One or more of NodeBB's dependent packages are out-of-date. Please run the following command to update them:
4/12 04:11 [14399] - warn: ./nodebb upgrade

After running nodebb upgrade, I'm back to 4.3.0.

[MJ]

[outdated] nodebb-plugin-composer-default installed v4.3.1, package.json requires 4.3.0
4/12 19:26 [28809] - warn: One or more of NodeBB's dependent packages are out-of-date. Please run the following command to update them:

[MJ]

ofter doing npm install [email protected] it works again

[PitaJ]

@MJ try changing the nodebb-plugin-composer-default line in package.json to be 4.3.1 instead of 4.3.0

[MJ]

@PitaJ before or after installing the composer?

[MJ]

still same error

[PitaJ]

@MJ change the line in package.json to 4.3.1 then install [email protected] then try starting

[MJ]

a ssoon as I change a file, my nodeBB stopt working

[MJ]

only if i do ./nodebb upgrade my nodebb works again.

[MJ]

okay step by step

change to this

./nodebb log only 1 error only, but this plugin gives error from the beginning I use nodeBB.

next upload and overwrite package.json in nodebb/node_modules/nodebb-plugin-composer-default

done

after uploading the file my NodeBB gives allready an error

running log

I did'nt even use npm install [email protected]

so before ugrading NodeBB gives the error

[PitaJ]

@MJ so you're running these:

1. ./nodebb stop
2. edit package.json to 4.3.1 for composer
3. npm install [email protected]
4. ./nodebb build
5. ./nodebb start

[MJ]

@PitaJ
changed the file.
and this

[MJ]

and log is still the same

[MJ]

strange thing is

./nodebb stop

change file

./nodebb start

won't start anymore.

change file back

./nodebb start

works again

@MJ your edit of package.json isn't actually applying. Use nano or something to edit it directly on the server

thanks man, it looks like it's starting now

[MJ]

hmm it worked

I installed 3.4.1 but it would not start again, so I changed the line back from 3.4.1 to 3.4.0 and it works now

No errors in log and the composer works now in Firefox

thanks for your help @PitaJ
