@MattLearn please provide more information and steps to reproduce. Please also always provide tracebacks as text not as a picture.

@MattLearn I'm making a hard guess here, but I would say that the LESS loader has a problem? I don't know for what reason could that be... Also the SVG loader seems not to be working.

Closing due to inactivity. Feel free to re-open when more information about the problem is available.

@tisto Maybe this issue could be re-opened?

Edit: Error on Windows still exists. Tried the same steps as mentioned below on Debian 10.10 (64-Bit) and didn't get any errors.

I'm having the same problem on windows aswell.

For testing purposes I started with a fresh node 10 environment using nvm for windows.

This are the steps I took to install volto:

nvm install 10.17
nvm use 10.17
npm install -g @plone/create-volto-app@alpha /* installed v4.0.0-alpha */
npm install -g yarn
create-volto-app my-volto-app
cd my-volto-app
yarn start

The console output said something about Client compiled with errors, the server compiled successfully. Upon yarn start the website shows up in the browser for the split of a second but without any styles applied, before the error pops up.

Error message: 

Failed to compile

./node_modules/semantic-ui-less/semantic.less 14:0
Module parse failed: Unexpected token (14:0)
You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type, currently no loaders are configured to process this file. See https://webpack.js.org/concepts#loaders

| /* Global */
> & { @import "definitions/globals/reset"; }
| & { @import "definitions/globals/site"; }
|

This error occurred during the build time and cannot be dismissed.

The less-loader package is installed successfully and available in my node_modules... So I really don't know what would be causing this issue...

Btw, I'm also having a docker container running in the background, started with the command found in this repos README:

docker run -it --rm --name=plone -p 8080:8080 -e SITE=Plone -e ADDONS="kitconcept.voltodemo" -e ZCML="kitconcept.voltodemo.cors" plone

More info's on my system:

sneridagh commented 4 years ago

@AlexBueckig we don't support the build on Windows environments because we don't have enough bandwidth for it, at least for now.

Have you tried the WSL? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10

I've heard lots of nice things about it.

pnicolli commented 4 years ago

I tried developing on WSL and it works, with docker for the backend plone. iirc also running regular plone through buildout works, installing python3.7 with linuxbrew.

AlexBueckig commented 4 years ago

@sneridagh Thanks for the info, I'll definitely give the WSL a try. 😃
