compass errror in running server

[dinesh36]

Getting stuck in starting the server with compass issue.

I also tried to start with --force option but it also shows an error in browser.

I have compass version Compass 0.12.2 (Alnilam)

Hi, am new to angularjs and wanted a roadmap to integrating it with Parse. Thanks for providing a great start with your demo!

Responding to the issue opened above, could someone update the installation instructions to include a 'bower install' command before running grunt? It is missing (so, no bower components installed), hence their error when trying to start up the demo :)

Running bower install before npm install produces the following error:

bower ESUDO Cannot be run with sudo

This was resolved in my case by passing the --allow-root flag. So the instructions should mention the following command:

bower install --allow-root

Explanation for the flag here

An alternative and more permanent fix here

Thanks guys I'm looking into that asap

I am having the same exact issue, on both the digital ocean mean server stack and on an ubuntu server with node/angular etc.

it was resolved using the bower install --allow-root suggested

I still get the same above error and I can't seem to resolve it with the above solutions. I tried to do a fresh install with the order mentioned above as well.

Having the same issue originally mentioned, tried fixes, cannot resolve. Running locally. Installed the emberjs-parse implementation and had it running in 10 minutes.

Another note @spacenick ENOTFOUND Package html5shiv-dist not found ... html5shiv-dist isn't in the bower directory, you have to instead declare the url to the git repository (I would patch it but I could not get it running.)

[rajvansia]

hey dskvr. I was able to get this working on my cloud9 by following the instructions in the docs with a few tweaks.

what components are you missing when you run compass prod?

ya ur right html5shic isnt in the bower directory i had to bower install html5shiv --save-dev it. Let me know if you need help getting it working.

are you getting a black background screen when running your app. do you have any console logs?
I used to get this error on my console.

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'get' of undefined ( in angular-parse.js)

To fix this i had to delete the (get) method to update- in angualr-parse.js. not sure the implications but that was the only fix i had to get teh app working

i am a noob at this- my issue is when i try to upload this to parse hosting there is a 500 file limit is there a way around this?

Hey there @spacenick,
first of all - thanks a lot for this awesome library. i looked for a long time for exactly what i need.

I'm encountering the same issues mentioned above (tried the manual + all the various fixes above).
i noticed this error while running npm install in the parse-angular-demo folder:

npm ERR! Darwin 14.3.0
npm ERR! argv "node" "/usr/local/bin/npm" "install"
npm ERR! node v0.12.5
npm ERR! npm v2.12.0

npm ERR! There is likely additional logging output above.

npm ERR! Please include the following file with any support request:
npm ERR! /Users/yoavcaspin/Documents/patientTrackerProject/parse-angular-demo/npm-debug.log

no matter what i do next, i can't seem to install bower (which leads to the missing "/components" folder further ahead (while running grunt server)

maybe this will help figure out the problem,

Thanks again!
Yoav

ran into same problem as mentioned by @spacenick

ENOTFOUND Package html5shiv-dist not found ... html5shiv-dist isn't in the bower directory

tried following commands so far...

1. bower install html5shiv --save-dev
2. bower install --allow-root

error "bower ENOTFOUND Package html5shiv-dist not found"
can't get it to work... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated - thanks

[achilleshsieh]

Same problem here @spacenick

bower ENOTFOUND Package html5shiv-dist not found

I tried "bower install html5shiv --save-dev" and "bower install --allow-root", and even tried to manually install according to the aFarkas instruction. None of these works. Please help. Thanks a bunch!

[achilleshsieh]

Never mind. My bower.json file still used "html5shiv-dist" instead of "html5shiv". Updated the name, and got it fixed.

Another thing wants to share here: to make "grunt" work on my Windows machine, I have to use "npm install -g grunt-cli" before running "grunt server". Not sure if that will help or not.
