I'm using gulp-usemin for minify the javascript files I use in my app, for some reason gulp is not seeing one of my files. I have this in my index.html:
<body ng-app="App">

And this is my gulpfile.js:

var gulp = require('gulp'),

gulp.task('usemin', function() {

});
gulp.task('zip', function () {

gulp.task('custom-css', function() {

gulp.watch([paths.customstyle], ['usemin']);

});
/**

gulp.task('webserver', function() {

livereload: true,

});
});
gulp.task('livereload', function() {
gulp.src(['dist/**/*.*'])
.pipe(watch())
.pipe(connect.reload());
});
/**

*/
gulp.task('build', ['build-assets','copy-templates', 'usemin']);
gulp.task('default', ['build', 'zip']);
gulp.task('run', ['build', 'webserver', 'livereload', 'watch']);
When I run default task I get this message:
TypeError: Path must be a string. Received undefined
If I remove <script src="scripts/directives/directive2/directive2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
from the index the gulp task run without errors and I'm pretty sure the file is there and url is written correctly.
Please help!!
The solution I found is passing {mangle:false}
to 'gulp-uglify' constructor, in my case replace
gulp.task('usemin', function() {
return gulp.src(paths.index)
.pipe(usemin({
js: [minifyJs({mangle:false}).on('error', function(e){ console.log(e); }), 'concat'],
css: [minifyCss({keepSpecialComments: 0}), 'concat']
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest('dist/'));
});
