I have a Meteor app that runs perfectly on localhost, but when I deploy it to a remote heroku
server, I get the following errors.
(I am implementing this)
Any ideas how to fix this please?

If I heroku run bash
to log onto heroku. In /app/typings/globals
I see the following:
es6-collections es6-promise google-maps google.maps meteor moment
This seems to match what is on the Windows localhost:
Moments also exist in node_modules
Here is my node_modules\moment\package.js
:
var profile = {
resourceTags: {
ignore: function(filename, mid){
// only include moment/moment
return mid != "moment/moment";
},
amd: function(filename, mid){
return /\.js$/.test(filename);
}
}
};

I do have symbolic links in the root of the meteor project:
UPDATE
I have found the problem I think, but I am not 100% sure how to solve it yet.
The issue is that the symbolic links are pointing to directories that exist locally, but not on the remote server.
UPDATE
I remove all symbolic links, and have the files there instead, deploy, and I still get the same error when the server tries to start:

Any Ideas please?
I have run: meteor npm install --save
I have found this in boot.js
, but I am not sure what the author was doing.
try {
return require(name);
} catch (e) {
// Try to guess the package name so we can print a nice
// error message
// fileInfo.path is a standard path, use files.pathSep
var filePathParts = fileInfo.path.split(files.pathSep);
var packageName = filePathParts[1].replace(/\.js$/, '');
// XXX better message
throw new Error(
"Can't find npm module '" + name +
"'. Did you forget to call 'Npm.depends' in package.js " +
"within the '" + packageName + "' package?");
}
UPDATE
I removed the .gitignore
of node_modules/
, and I don't get any errors now.
However, I am new to Meteor, so not sure how to test this. But when I try invoke the app with http://remote-thewhozoo.herokuapp.com/
or https://remote-thewhozoo.herokuapp.com/
I get a 404 error:
2016-09-11T16:20:15.183895+00:00 heroku[router]: at=info method=GET path="/sockjs/info?cb=jwgw2yuvgl" host=remote-thewhozoo.herokuapp.com request_id=a49fafb2-9708-46d2-8117-2c789bfa6a3e fwd="105.186.215.147" dyno=web.1 connect=1ms service=2ms status=404 bytes=132
I do check the Mongo Database, and it has got the collections created by my app. So Meteor must be running, I just don't know how to access it.
Any ideas please?
