Error packaging app on Linux #309

maxcnunes commented 8 years ago

I got this error on building an app on Linux:

No parameters given. You need to pass additional command arguments so that I know what you want to build packages from. For example, for '-s dir' you would pass a list of files and directories.

Fix the above problems, and you'll be rolling packages in no time! {:level=>:fatal}

Does anyone has any idea why this is happening? Or what to do to fix it?

develar commented 8 years ago

Thanks for detailed issue report.

Please xz --version?

Try to set compression to gz (see https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/wiki/Options#buildlinux).

develar commented 8 years ago

Yep, it seems xz is not installed on your system.

develar commented 8 years ago

And please update fpm to 1.5 (gem update fpm).

maxcnunes commented 8 years ago

Awesome! Just changing the compression was enough. Thanks @develar :clap:

develar commented 8 years ago

@maxcnunes Please use only xz. So, please install xz. I use Ubuntu to test — xz installed by default and I guess on Debian it should be available as well.

maxcnunes commented 8 years ago

Ok. I have installed xz with xz-utils package and now it is working without setting the compression type. Maybe would be good include this package in https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/wiki/Multi-Platform-Build#linux.

develar commented 8 years ago

Thanks! I will fix docs.

I got another problem building windows on Linux.

After some debugging it I found out that /usr/src/app/node_modules/electron-builder/node_modules/electron-winstaller-fixed/lib/index.js:111:38 was trying to execute itL

>>>>cmd mono
>>>>args [ '/usr/src/app/node_modules/electron-builder/node_modules/electron-winstaller-fixed/vendor/nuget.exe',
  'pack',
  '/usr/src/app/si-116313-4299-1o55t3m/Sqlectron.nuspec',
  '-BasePath',
  '/usr/src/app/dist/Sqlectron-win32-x64',
  '-OutputDirectory',
  '/usr/src/app/si-116313-4299-1o55t3m',
  '-NoDefaultExcludes',
  '-NonInteractive',
  '-Verbosity',
  'quiet' ]

Then I have installed mono-complete following these steps http://www.mono-project.com/docs/getting-started/install/linux/#debian-ubuntu-and-derivatives.

After that I got this error:

develar commented 8 years ago

@maxcnunes Please file separate issue in the future. Your issue — mono/wine is outdated, please see https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/wiki/Multi-Platform-Build#linux about mono/wine installation on Linux. wine must be 1.8+, mono must be 4+.

MadsRC commented 8 years ago

The README could do with a bit of work. I had the exact same issue, albeit on a Mac (trying to build for Linux). Solved the FPM related error by installing xz. Maybe xz should be added as a dependency?

develar commented 8 years ago

@MadsRC It is documented here https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/wiki/Multi-Platform-Build#linux xz-utils in the list of required packages.

develar commented 8 years ago

Maybe xz should be added as a dependency?

Yeah, it is a problem — xz-utils and fpm is a system packages, not npm. So, you have to read docs and it is not a user-friendly.
