Missing files when I run #6

Closed shockrock closed 7 years ago

shockrock commented 7 years ago

I've reinstalled a couple of times and I don't see any errors cloning from git or when doing npm install but when I run the following file is missing. There is actually no jspm_packages directory. 400 GET http://localhost:9000/jspm_packages/system.js

I do have other node applications installed on the mac so I don't know if there is a conflict. My other application runs on a different port. The page does load, it is just black.

Any help or ideas would be appreciated. I'm excited to try this new tool. Thanks!

Definitely an issue when running "npm install". Perhaps you're using an older version of Node or NPM? Here's the environment we are testing with:

$ npm -version
3.8.6
$ node -v
v6.1.0

Thanks for creating this issue.

There is a missing step in the "Setup Your Machine" section: After you install Node.js, but before you run 'npm install', run the following command:

npm install jspm -g

Once this is done, you should be able to continue with the instructions as presented. I will close this issue once I have updated the README.

i am also having this issue : 

/Users/Rob/Documents/workspace/Alexa/interactive-adventure-game-tool/node_modules/jspm/lib/common.js:116
    throw 'Error parsing package.json file ' + file;
    ^
Error parsing package.json file /Users/Rob/.jspm/config

This sounds like a install corruption case. What I suggest is try jspm install -f first. If this not work, probably reinstall jspm.
