Just noticed in this case it may be because they downloaded a zip of the project rather than using git clone.

I believe the build script relies on the directory being a git repository in order to obtain certain information, so the project needs to be cloned rather than a ZIP file simply downloaded.

If I’m right though, I can just update the build script to accommodate this.

so , how to let it work, i do not see any solution,

Delete node_modules npm cache clean npm i npm run dev or npm run generate If the above steps fails, try:

npm rebuild node-sass npm run generate

i do that, but no work

I just clone the code to my pc again.

> git clone https://github.com/liyasthomas/postwoman.git
> cd postwoman
> npm i
> npm run build

And everything is okay now… Below is some information of my local enviroment:

> nvm version
1.1.7
> node -v
v12.0.0
> npm -v
v6.10.3

My PC OS is Windows10 Home Chinese Edition 1903.

That’s weird, I can’t repoduce the problem and I want to know why, I even change the local PC date to yestoday. I will try again on my linux server and let us see if there is something strange.

The server works fine today.

npm run generate and npm run build woks for me on Ubuntu 18.04

Cloning definetely solves the issue, thank you.

@liyasthomas I think this can be closed?

NBTX on Nov 26, 2019

Usually these kinda errors happen when npm cache exists with lower version of dependencies. Delete node_modules, clean the cache, npm install again will solve most of it.

liyasthomas on Nov 26, 2019

.postwoman/version.json file is not normally generated in build.js. if you need to use it urgently, you can delete the corresponding import statement and the related code in layout/default.vue file first.(Unrecommended)

FatDoge on Nov 25, 2019

Issue has been identified. Will patch soon with a fix.

liyasthomas on Nov 25, 2019

I meet the same problem, delete the .postwoman directory seems useless. System infomation: Linux VM_202_150_centos 3.10.0-514.21.1.el7.x86_64 I use the cloud server offered by Tencent Cloud.
