webpack: Very hard failure with watch on OS X
We are running a fairly large project with 922 JavaScript and .less files being watched by Webpack’s watch function on OS X (10.10.2) running on Node.js 5.2.0. During the initial build, or right when it’s done with that, the following happens:
2015-12-10 18:01 node[76106] (FSEvents.framework) FSEventStreamScheduleWithRunLoop: failed to create the cffd
2015-12-10 18:01 node[76106] (FSEvents.framework) FSEventStreamCreate: _FSEventStreamCreate: ERROR: could not open kqueue

I’ve made an issue about this at https://github.com/libuv/libuv/issues/645, but I was wondering if this is something other Webpack users have also suffered from and if a workaround is known. Thanks.

I also met this problem on the iterm, my solution is to put the iterm closed to restart again, to solve
Happened to me after macOS soft rebooted, perhaps connected. iTerm restart fixed it.
I met the problem, it seems a mac OS’s bug, after I reboot my mac, it disappear.
Same issue here. Simply restarting iTerm fixed it.
Restarting iTerm fixed it for me too, thanks. @ronkorving you are absolutely right, but it is iTerm in this/my case, because things like starting ssh sessions also stop working at the same time.
Just to add to the mix. My mac soft crashed on me (back to the login screen), logged back in, and was getting this. Restarted iTerm and all was good. Thanks everyone.
Just my 2 cents, but IMHO having to restart your terminal is not a fix. Somewhere, something is broken. I’m not saying that’s Webpack, but something is broken. So I wouldn’t want to dismiss this as a non-issue, simply because it’s “fixed” for everyone.
Just restarting iTerm fixed for me too!
Thank you @xiaomoinfo @mfferreira
