Upgrading jsreport to v2 errors out

bjrmatos

hmm not sure what happens but it seems to me that the problem is related to having the global modules and the project app sharing the same root location or some permissions error that is not shown, the issue needs debugging with your same folders so i'm not sure we will be able to replicate the problem.

as a last resource, what is the output of jsreport start --verbose, share all the logs printed maybe there is some information there that can be helpful

Here is the output of jsreport start --verbose

C:\>jsreport start --verbose
"start" command not found in this installation, check that you are writing the command correctly or check if the command is available in your installation, use "jsreport -h" to see the list of available commands

What is your nodejs version? Try it out with the LTS one. https://nodejs.org
I mean try to uninstall everything and try again.
You still didn't posted the output of jsreport init. It could be interesting.

just downgraded to LTS version. Still seeing same issue, jsreport start and other cli commands are unavailable. Any how, i executed jsreport init script. Here is the output

C:\source\jsreportapp>jsreport init --verbose
jsreport installation not found, installing jsreport latest version now, wait a moment...
jsreport installation finished..

Hm. That looks good. Can you zip the jsreportapp an upload it somewhere?

Why do you have in that folder jsreport.exe?

Farah Javed

i added jsreport.exe because jsreport start does not work with jsreport-cli (an issue stated above). When i use jsreport.exe start, i am able to start the server

The structure of node_modules isn't flattened. This is not the way how the npm installs it by default.
This is the way how npm v2 installs modules. Haven't you done any configuration to the npm?

I would recommend to delete package-lock.json, node_modules and jsreport.exe.

Then type npm install . The jsreport start should work afterwards. If you have properly working npm.

Thank you for your help. I turned off npm legacy-bundling and it worked!!
