I have installed mean.io as per the documentation, on mac. However when I try to mean init myApp, I am presented with 'init: is an unrecognised token!'. I have cleared my bower and npm caches as well as updated bower, npm, and gulp.
What am I doing wrong?
Embarrassingly enough, 'mean' was already pointing to a command in another library which I do not use often enough to have made the connection, initially.

I have a working application just a few minutes ago.
Then I installed some packages from SQLite, and Storage.
Until I got this error:
Object(...) is not a function
I must have not installed them properly so I tried to revert back from my previous git commit that I'm sure was working but after doing so, I still got the same error.
I'm not sure what to do, I already reverted back my codes.
I even restarted my ionic server and even my computer.
I also tried to remove my node_modules folder but still has the same error.
If you need more details please let me know.
Then I was able to get it work again. Phew!
(I went back to the latest commit with the error I had to try fix it)
I deleted my node_modules folder again.
Then, in my package.json,
I used the previous version numbers I had from my previous commit.
Then run $ npm install command.
You can get the idea from here that I could have reverted back from my recent working commit, deleted node_modules folder, then $ npm install.
With this in mind, I also removed the ~ and ^ for the versions, so I won't have that issue again.This depends on your strategy though, this can be either good or bad.
But come to think of it, I did installed a line of code with this command npm install #latest or was it ionic cordova plugin add ...#latest.
npm install --save #ionic-native/core#latest
While creating this answered, I decided to try and install it again just to make sure if the error would occur again but it didn't. It didn't even occur with just
npm install --save #ionic-native/core
I'm not sure anymore what could have caused it but now it's working as it should be. I'll leave this here for reference to others.
I followed the instructions in GStreamer Plugin Writer's Guide (1.7.1.1):
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/pwg/html/index.html
in order to build a new gstreamer plugin. Basically I ran make_element and then edited Makefile.am as described. Amazingly make and make install worked and I ended up with:
/usr/local/lib/gstreamer-1.0/libgstframe_grabber.la
/usr/local/lib/gstreamer-1.0/libgstframe_grabber.so
As I understand it, gst-inspect should find this plugin automatically. The guide says that /usr/local/lib/gstreamer-1.0 needs to be added to GST_PLUGIN_PATH in order for plugins in this directory to be found. Another document states that this directory is searched automatically. I tried with and without the environment variable, but no luck.
Now I should say that I have just started to use gstreamer and I am suffering from total information overload. I have read so many documents, yet I don't even know whether I am building a gstreamer1.0 or a gstreamer0.10 plugin (I think the guide is for gstreamer1.0, since the guide's version is 1.7.1.1 but can't be sure).
Can anybody give me a clue here ?
There are many possible reasons that can cause this issue.
First, check if your plugin is blacklisted by command gst-inspect-1.0 -b.
If your plugin show up here, that means it is really blacklisted.
In that case, delete directory ~/.cache/ and then run gst-inpect-1.0 again.
This will force GStreamer to re-scan plugins list. If the reason of blacklist is not solved yet, gst-inpect will probably print out the reason here for you.
Another possible reason (but unlikely happens) is setting GST_REGISTRY_UPDATE as no, which will force GStreamer NOT to rescan the plugin directory, thus not found new plugin
P/s: The guide is for GStreamer 1.0
If you've tried removing your plugin from the blacklist and it still doesn't show up, try this:
export GST_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/local/lib/gstreamer-1.0
/usr/local/lib/gstreamer-1.0 is the default directory used by make in case of plugins. If you have defined a different directory, use it.
Then run gst-inspect-1.0 and you'll find the newly compiled and installed plugin.
You'll be required to perform the export every time in the shell whether you either create a static pipeline with gst-launch-1.0 or run code of your own. I couldn't find any alternative to make it permanent other than making entry of this in .bashrc file. If you have one, please suggest via comments.
If you run ./configure --help in the gst-plugin directory you will see the following:
By default, make install' will install all the files in
/usr/local/bin', /usr/local/lib' etc. You can specify
an installation prefix other than/usr/local' using --prefix',
for instance--prefix=$HOME'.
If you do after the original installation:sudo updatedb && locate libgst[NAME_OF_YOUR_PLUGIN].so you should see where the library holding your plugin is located (in my case it is under /usr/local/lib/gstreamer-1.0/ as described by the configure help above).
Now on my machine, the GStreamer "official" plugins are installed under: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gstreamer-1.0/ . This is where the new created plugin library should be stored.
To store the plugin at the right place, run configure with the following parameter:
./configure --libdir=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu followed by make && sudo make install
It is important to override with --libdir and NOT --prefix! The usage of --prefix will stick a /lib that we don't want to have under /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu.The plugin will not be found by gst-inspect-1.0 if /lib is added to the path.
Extra note :
Even if the plugin is at the proper location, you may still see GStreamer blacklisting it when you run gst-inspect-1.0. One of the cause of the blacklisting could be the shared library/ies required by your plugin not installed or not found on your platform. The ldd command can help figuring out the dependencies your plugin may have. Just run ldd [YOUR_GSTREAMER_LIBRARY].so
I have gone through the following steps:
$ mkdir mongoEg
$ cd mongoEg
$ cabal init
...
Configured to run as an executable. I add mongodb to the build-depends list. I make a dummy Main.hs file and put a basic hello world in there. I then do
$ cabal sandbox init
$ cabal install --only-dependencies
Which responds with:
Resolving dependencies...
cabal: Could not resolve dependencies:
trying: monogEg-0.1.0.0 (user goal)
next goal: mongodb (dependency of monogEg-0.1.0.0)
Dependency tree exhaustively searched.
Note: when using a sandbox, all packages are required to have consistent
dependencies. Try reinstalling/unregistering the offending packages or
recreating the sandbox.
I read up on other problems people are having, and remove ~/.ghc, remove my mongoEg directory, and repeat to get the same results. I try to run through the analogous steps at http://howistart.org/posts/haskell/1 and find that everything works just fine.
I then guess that something is wrong with the mongodb package itself. I seem to be able to cabal install mongodb in a global environment and use it outside of a sandbox without any issue. So, why wont cabal sandboxes play with the mongodb package?
See this gist for details: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/e5a548cf7d9ec59bea31
After looking here
Cabal configure in a sandbox complains "At least the following dependencies are missing" on installed packages
I saw that the answer states that package names are case sensitive. So I tried changing mongodb to the way MongoDB spells it, namely MongoDB. This did not work, so I tried changing it to mongoDB, and finally there was joy.
So even though I can do cabal install mongodb I can't use that same spelling to install it from within a .cabal file, which is, obviously, completely stupid. I'm sure I'll find the right place to channel my rage about this kind of flagrant violation of the principle of least surprise, but for now I can say that to newcomers it is most needlessly confusing.
Does anyone know a step by step guide to deploy the own meteor app from windows to a webspace (not xxx.meteor.com).
I've found some tools like meteor.sh, but I'm a beginner and it's difficult without a guidance and without linux (needed to execute sh-files for example)
Make your project locally
Build your project locally, you could test it using meteor run or even meteor deploy xxx.meteor.com to see if its working
Bundle your app
Use meteor bundle deploy.tar.gz to make a file called deploy.tar.gz in your meteor directory containing your project
Upload your file to your server
This depends more on how your server is/what your platform is but you can use a tool to upload it for you (e.g Transmit on mac)
Install node.js & fibers on your platform if you don't have it already
This depends alot on your server platform. Have a look at http://nodejs.org/ for more detailed instructions
Extract your bundle
If on a *nix platform you could do the below in the directory where you uploaded your bundle (explanation):
tar -xzvf bundle.tar.gz
Enter the directory and install fibers
Fibers is needed for any meteor project, it helps use synchronous style code on server side javascript:
cd bundle/programs/server/node_modules
rm -r fibers
npm install fibers#1.0.1
The first line enters the directory in your bundle where fibers is installed, the second removes it, and the third reinstalls it.
Get MongoDB on another server or use a third party service like mongohq
Meteor production deployments need another mongodb. You can either install it on another server or use a third party server. It's not recommended to install it on the same server you install meteor on.
Finally check if your project is runnable
cd ../../../
node MONGO_URL=mongodb://dbuser:dbpassword#dbhost:dbport/meteor ROOT_URL=http://yourwebsite.com app.js
The first line gets you back to the bundle directory and the second runs node.js on your project with the parameters that let you connect to your mongodb database.
Install something to let it run in the background
It depends on which one you want to use, foreverjs is quite easy to use
npm install forever -g
If you get an error problem try using sudo before the npm (which lets you run as a super user).
Then you can run forever:
forever start MONGO_URL=mongodb://dbuser:dbpassword#dbhost:dbport/meteor ROOT_URL=http://yourwebsite.com app.js
And its done!
Extra notes
While its not that easy to get started from scratch this should help you get started. You still need to secure your mongodb server up if you've used your own servers.
The meteor.sh script does pretty much the same as above but very quickly if you learn to use that instead it might be faster to deploy updates
You might not have wget or a couple of commands that you might need that come up and give you Unknown command errors. Have a go at running yum or apt-get and see which one of the two you might have. You can then install the required package using one of these installer tools, i.e with yum install wget
I hope this helps you, its not that easy to deploy to a server on the first shot as a couple of things might be missing (files/packages/dependencies), you might run into other problems with permissions & stuff, but you could always ask on serverfault or here on stackoverflow on what you run into.
I recommend Meteoric.
Note, that you need to run meteoric from your development machine.
Script is self explanatory and works perfect for me.
I want to run a copy of one of our Magento installations on my local machine. I've copied the code, recreated the database on my local machine, configured apache, and now try to run it. I get the following message:
There has been an error processing your request
cURL extension has to be loaded to use this Zend_Http_Client adapter.
I've searched for solutions on the internet, but couldn't find a solution.
Curl was not installed, so I did this: apt-get install php5-curl
I opened /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and looked for php_curl.dll, which was not mentioned in it. So I added the following line: extension=php_curl.dll. After restarting apache nothing changed. Shouldn't that DLL be in there? I've tried to search for the string inside /etc/php5 and /etc using grep, but no results.
Now I wonder what to do to get magento working. I don't care about Curl, this installation is meant to test, try out, and it doesn't need all options installed. Best would be if this worked, but it's not a necessity for now.
I've changed php_curl.dll to php_curl.so and that seems to solve the problem.
