steward fails and loop over alert
Closed this issue · 2 comments
bear with me as I am a newbie with steward, just trying to run it. I just finished the manual installation of dependacies on ubuntu.
And when I run sudo ./run.sh, first I have that error about node: "node: command not found"
So I had to tweak run.sh to add a function called node to call the binary nodejs because node is installed as nodejs on ubuntu. Go figure.
To the point, now that it runs, I have that alert:
alert: [steward] exception diagnostic=Cannot call method 'slice' of null
alert: [steward] exception stack=[{"fileName":"/home/solstice/prog/dvcs/steward/steward/devices/devices-media/media-video-appletv.js","lineNumber":206,"functionName":"Browser.mdns.createBrowser.on.on.discovery.debug.event","typeName":"Browser","methodName":"mdns.createBrowser.on.on.discovery.debug.event","columnNumber":64,"native":false},{"fileName":"events.js","lineNumber":98,"functionName":"Browser.EventEmitter.emit","typeName":"Browser","methodName":"EventEmitter.emit","columnNumber":17,"native":false},{"fileName":"/home/solstice/prog/dvcs/steward/steward/node_modules/mdns/lib/browser.js","lineNumber":31,"functionName":"on_resolver_done","typeName":"Object","methodName":null,"columnNumber":14,"native":false},{"fileName":"/home/solstice/prog/dvcs/steward/steward/node_modules/mdns/lib/browser.js","lineNumber":94,"functionName":"next","typeName":"Object","methodName":null,"columnNumber":7,"native":false},{"fileName":"[as 2] (/home/solstice/prog/dvcs/steward/steward/node_modules/mdns/lib/resolver_sequence_tasks.js","lineNumber":160,"functionName":"Array.makeAddressesUnique","typeName":"Array","methodName":"makeAddressesUnique","columnNumber":5,"native":false},{"fileName":"/home/solstice/prog/dvcs/steward/steward/node_modules/mdns/lib/browser.js","lineNumber":97,"functionName":"next","typeName":"Object","methodName":null,"columnNumber":21,"native":false},{"fileName":"/home/solstice/prog/dvcs/steward/steward/node_modules/mdns/lib/resolver_sequence_tasks.js","lineNumber":143,"functionName":null,"typeName":null,"methodName":null,"columnNumber":11,"native":false},{"fileName":"/home/solstice/prog/dvcs/steward/steward/node_modules/mdns/lib/resolver_sequence_tasks.js","lineNumber":117,"functionName":"Object.wrap.oncomplete","typeName":"Object","methodName":"wrap.oncomplete","columnNumber":9,"native":false}]
uncaught exception: TypeError: Cannot call method 'slice' of null
It waits 10 seconds and restart and fails again, over and over...
And I don't get anything running on http://locahost:8887
Edit: I thought of a bug but may be it's my installation of steward that is incomplete/incorrect /o\
Whatever way I try to install node and npm, I always get errors when running npm install -l from within steward directory about building module.
I tried, using node.js official linux 64 bit binary, using deb.nodesource.com packages, official ubuntu nodejs package (15.04 vivid 64 bits)
I always get error with socket.io and in the other case, even more build errors.
So I guess it's the installation of steward depedancies that fails, not strictly steward....
What version of node are you using? node -v
