express.compiler undefined #4

Open ktiedt opened 11 years ago

ktiedt commented 11 years ago

When trying to run srv.web.js from your tutorial I get this error: (Note: I got to this error AFTER I installed express explcitly, since it wasnt listed as a requirement in sub modules or otherwise -- the error stems from line 8 of kickstart -- and I have been unable to find any solutions to this on the web.

express.compiler.compilers.less.compile = function (str, fn) {

node.js:201 throw e; // process.nextTick error, or 'error' event on first tick ^ Error: Calling node's require("kickstart") failed with error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'compilers' of undefined at /Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:2255:27 at Object.execCb (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1766:33) at Object.check (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1075:51) at Object.enable (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1316:22) at Object.init (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:974:26) at callGetModule (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1341:59) at Object.completeLoad (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1641:21) at Function.load (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:2265:17) at Object.load (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1755:21) at Object.load (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1032:29)

I just had the same error in some other project. Seems to happen when using express version 3.0.0 beta (latest pointer in npm is on beta). I'll update the package.json file to use express 2.5.x…

Maybe a npm install express@2.5.11 will fix your problem?

This got farther..

which node version do you use?

ktiedt commented 11 years ago

currently on 0.6.14

sbstjn commented 11 years ago

I'm using v0.6.19 and the following package versions:

npm install colors@0.6.0-1 serialport@1.0.0 kickstart@0.0.6 requirejs@2.0.4 socket.io@0.9.6

Just checked, those are the same versions installed, it appears a submodule has a bad dependency list... I updated node... to eliminate that potential problem then ended up having to run: npm install uglify-js this resolved the above error... then npm install active-x-obfuscator to resolve: /Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1902 throw err; ^ Error: Calling node's require("socket.io") failed with error: Error: Cannot find module 'active-x-obfuscator' at req.load (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:2255:27) at Object.context.execCb (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1766:33) at Object.Module.check (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1075:51) at Object.Module.enable (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1316:22) at Object.Module.init (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:974:26) at callGetModule (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1341:59) at Object.context.completeLoad (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1641:21) at Function.req.load (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:2265:17) at Object.context.load (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1755:21) at Object.Module.load (/Users/ktiedt/repos-git/noduino/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:1032:29)

So likely not a problem with noduino other than it depends on a project with bad dependencies?

sbstjn commented 11 years ago

Try downgrading to a lower version of uglify-js or active-x-obfuscator, see npm info uglify-js for a version history…

ktiedt commented 11 years ago

Once I install those (no version specifics) -- srv.web.js starts, just the demo pages "Connect to" all cause a segfault (I dont have the board setup with ledWalker yet -- since I couldnt even get the code to run -- setting up a board now to test)
