Hello @Alhar6i,

Thank you for using our products, we tried to run the downloadable archive and it worked properly. Please try to use a different version of NodeJS. If you have the latest version, please try to downgrade to v15.x.x and try to use the product again and let us know if it's working.

All the best, Stefan

Sorry, downgrading the node version is not a solution! Why should one use an out-of-date product? do you agree?

Hello again,

Please let us know your node version because we have tested with the 16.14.0 and it's working properly.

Best, Stefan

Alhar6i commented 1 year ago

Our node version is 16.14.2

Hello again,

Please make sure that in the package.json you have the version 4.0.2 for the gulp in devDependencies.

"devDependencies": {
    "gulp": "^4.0.2",
    ....
 }

After you change it, delete the node_module and package.json.lock and run the npm install command again. We have tested also with the v17.7.2 node version and it's working properly.

All the best, Stefan
