npm start failing

[Pesinn]

I get this error when I do: npm start

I have the latest node- and npm versions:

Hey @Pesinn,
node v4.5.0 is not the latest version - it is LTS. 6.x is the latest version.
Nevertheless, it should work with your versions.

Were there any errors during genration of the project?

[Pesinn]

Hey stylesuxx and thanks for fast response.

I get this error after running yo generator-react-webpack-redux

+-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY [email protected]

Here is detailed error:

[stylesuxx]

so, did you install webpack as peer dep?

npm install webpack

[Pesinn]

I've tried to install different versions of webpack, but none of them seems to work.

I always get this error:

`-- UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY [email protected]

I thought it could be some problem with npm but then I installed another generator, that has webpack, without any problems.

[stylesuxx]

So

npm install [email protected]

in your project root does not solve the problem?

Do you use nvm? Maybe you could quickly switch to a newer node version and generate a fresh project. I use v6.6.0 for development. I just want to cross check, since I do not have windows I can not really test that case properly.

[Pesinn]

I installed version v.6.6.0 but it doesn't make any difference. I get the same error.

And npm install [email protected] isn't working either. I tried few beta versions, from 2.2 up to 2.5.

I also tried to uninstall webpack and install it again, and webpack-dev-server also. But nothing works.

[stylesuxx]

Hmm, do you, by any chance have webpack installed globally? If so please remove it, so the project uses the locally installed webpack version.

That's the only thing I can think of right now.

I do not have a windows dev setup on which I could test, but can you please post output of

node -v
npm -v

Maybe I can ask someone for help.

Hi, i got the same problem.

I already install webpack and webpack-dev-server

[stylesuxx]

OK, I am getting this now too.
Could you guys please try installing [email protected] this is the version I am using in one of my older setups and it seems to be working with it.

[lexcaraig]

Yay! Thank You!

Installing [email protected] works fine on me.

[stinaq]

Hi. I get the same error as @Pesinn reports. Running npm install [email protected] after the generator finished (with errors) and then running npm start seemed to fix it

[Pesinn]

Sorry for late response, but it works now when I install [email protected].

Thank you :)

The following is my config with the latest webpack and webpack-dev-server which can work.

"webpack": "2.1.0-beta.22",
"webpack-dev-server": "^2.1.0-beta.9"

[erfangc]

it looks like beta 23+ or so introduced config schema validation ... so first:

• debug: false has to be removed from ./conf/webpack/Base.js
• resolve.extensions[0] first element is blank .. should be removed to just be extensions: ['.js', '.jsx']
• all of module.preLoaders has to be deleted

then npm start worked for me ...

[stylesuxx]

@erfangc Thank you for this. Point is - this is part of the main generator and not this one, I am depending on the main generator and made the mistake to update my generator to the newest version of the base generator which is still in beta, and will be as long as webpack is...

[albertwchang]

@stylesuxx Following your instructions worked for me, too (npm install webpack@[email protected])

[Sen-Zhang]

@erfangc good to know the change of webpack 23+ 👍

[stylesuxx]

Webpack is stable - this should no longer be an issue. Closing this down.
