meteorlaika

Couldn't get laika to work on meteor

I'm using meteor 0.6.4, node 0.10.12 and laika 0.2.8. I followed the instructions on the getting started page and I get this error:

injecting laika...
loading phantomjs...
cleaning up injected code

/Users/camilo/.nvm/v0.10.12/lib/node_modules/laika/lib/app.js:124
  if(err) throw err;
              ^
Error: spawn ENOENT
  at errnoException (child_process.js:980:11)
  at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (child_process.js:771:34)

I switched to laika 0.2.4 based on this question Fail to run laika framework for meteor and get the same error.

Edit

I'm using phantomjs 1.9.1 installed with homebrew

Edit 2

I updated laika to 0.2.13 and tried with mrt (I was using meteor) but now the problem is different. With laika -D I get this:

[laika log] accepting the following extensions: (js)

  injecting laika...
  loading phantomjs...
[app touch log] 
[app touch log] Stand back while Meteorite does its thing
[app touch log] 
[app touch log] Done installing smart packages

[app touch log] Ok, everything's ready. Here comes Meteor!

[app touch log] [[[[[ ~/Documents/Pruebas/Meteor/test ]]]]]

[app touch log] => Meteor server running on: http://localhost:25969/

After a while, this error appear:

phantom stderr:

    throw errnoException(process._errno, 'spawn');
          ^

phantom crash: code 8

I uninstalled phantomjs, put the phantomjs binary on the same project folder and tested again but get the same error.

Solution

  • After many attempts, apparently the problem was with phantomjs. Installing it with homebrew or putting the binary directly on the project doesn't work for me. After update laika to 0.2.14 and install phantomjs with sudo npm install -g phantomjs it worked.
