Can not build with build.ps1

[JonathanE42]

I can't build Umbraco from source:

Steps to reproduce

By following the guide (BUILD.md):

1. git clone Umbraco-CMS (being on the v8/contrib branch)
2. run build.ps1

Ends up raising the exception above.

Hi @JonathanE42, that's unfortunate!

First off, you never need to build Umbraco from source unless you plan to contribute. And if you're planning to contribute then that's awesome, thanks in advance!

I am not sure about this error exactly, I don't think I've seen it before. What happens when you build Umbraco in Visual Studio itself?

I thought it would be better to try on a clean project. So I removed and unzipped source again and then tried to build it in Visual Studio and it ended up with 10 Errors and 64 warnings.

Raised warnings are: 2 from Umbraco.Core 2 from Umbraco.Examine 2 from Umbraco.ModelsBuilder.Embedded 56 from Umbraco.Web 2 from Umbraco.Web.UI

After looking into projects Debug folder, I realized it's empty in following projects: Umbraco.Tests Umbraco.Tests.Benchmarks Umbraco.Web

If I try to manually copy for example Umbraco.Web.dll from Umbraco 8.8.0 to 'D:\Umbraco-CMS-8-contrib\src\Umbraco.Web\bin\Debug\' folder, above numbers will raise up to 49 for errors and 109 for warnings.

Hmm, this is weird.. haven't seen this before! Can either of you please post the contents of the log files in ~\build.tmp\ to see what might be in there that's interesting?

[itsMasoud]

There is nothing but belle.log. It's from build inside visual studio. If I run the build.ps1 again it might be possible to find more log files. Would be appreciated if you can find out what's going on here.

Really not sure what is going on, but if it doesn't build in Visual Studio then you might have something missing in your build tooling.

I have had to install some framework targeting packs:

In Visual Studio installer I have these selected:

Might be worth reviewing your install for these bits.

Can I ask once more: is your intention to contribute to Umbraco? Or are you trying to build Umbraco from source for some other reason?

[nul800sebastiaan]

I'm going to close this for now, since it's been a while. Hope it works now!

what should i do?

[nul800sebastiaan]

@JohnnyZhang0628 Check your npm version and node version

[JohnnyZhang0628]

@nul800sebastiaan thanks reply .it my screenshoot.

[nul800sebastiaan]

It's hard to read.. so npm 6 and node 14, that seems fine. And I'm assuming you are on the v8/contrib branch, which is where you should start with contributions.

Apart from deleting the node_modules folder if you have problems like this then I usually try to clear npm cache as well (so npm cache clean --force). If that doesn't help then I'm afraid you're going to have a whole lot of googling to do for your specific error, I usually can find the issue for npm related problems only after doing a very deep google session, reading a lot of things that are misleading and finally stumbling on good clues. 🙈

[JohnnyZhang0628]

@nul800sebastiaan thansk reply.My branch is v9/dev.DotNet Core is cool.I am so happy to see the release-9.0.0-rc001 version publisned.

[p-m-j]

I have the same issue building Umbraco.Web.UI.Client in v9/dev

[16:48:40] TypeError in plugin "gulp-imagemin"
Message:
    fn is not a function

$ node -v
v16.6.1
$ npm -v
7.20.5

[nul800sebastiaan]

@p-m-j If you've switched from running a v8 branch to v9 then it's probably going to cause problems. Recommend you do a fresh clone of v9 in a different directory and run npm install and npm run build.

I just tried with those versions and.. it 'works on my machine'™️ 😅

[p-m-j]

Doesn't seem to work with newer node for me (on debian sid), but can work around with nvm

nvm install v14 --latest-npm
nvm use v14
npm ci
npm run build

[nul800sebastiaan]

Weird! I didn't have v16 yet, so I nvm installed that one just to make sure.. but glad it works for you.. somehow! 😅

For all the cursing I do towards NuGet, it's actually pretty ok in comparison to these inconsistencies.. 🙈

[p-m-j]

I can no longer reproduce on v16 I dropped nvm out of PATH and it works fine with system install also
