Can't debug app

Hi,

i am trying to deploy my app to homey from cmd line i am getting error. It was working like 2 months ago and now i can’t deploy properly even blank app created by wizard.

When i run app created by wizard and with no modifications, i get error. See log below:

c:\Users\Myš\Documents\HomeyApps\com.mys.testapp>homey app run

and it exit back to commandline.

Does someone have an idea, what is wrong?

Homey firmware: 5.0.0-rc.50

Thanks,

There’s a lot going wrong there. For one, it looks like this command is failing:

npm prune --production --dry-run --json

Can you run that from your app directory to see what its output is?

Also, what is the output of these commands:

npm --version
node --version
homey --version

This is from console:
c:>npm --version
6.14.10

c:>node --version
v12.20.1

c:>homey --version
2.9.4

c:\Users\Myš\Documents\HomeyApps\com.mys.testapp>node app.js

c:\Users\Myš\Documents\HomeyApps\com.mys.testapp>

I tryied run that app on my work laptop and it works properly, so i guess my environment on pc is broken or wrong set.

Yes it sounds like it, although I don’t know where to start looking (I don’t use Windows). Perhaps start by reinstalling Node, npm and homey.

I tryied to uninstall everything about nodejs and all frameworks, then install it back, but it did not help, so i ended up reinstalling whole system. I would do it either way, because my windows instance was like 5 years old.

I am new to nodejs world so i was trying different versions of frameworks, several tools and libraries so i probably broke the environment somewhere on the way.

In any case, its working now finally :slight_smile:

Thanks for your time!

Have a nice day.
