meteorite error Cloning Mac

Question

This is the error I keep getting when I try to run meteorite

$ mrt

Stand back while Meteorite does its thing ✓ router tag: https://github.com/tmeasday/meteor-router.git#v0.5.3

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/meteorite/lib/sources/git.js:108 throw "There was a problem cloning repo: " + self.url; ^ There was a problem cloning repo: https://github.com/tmeasday/meteor-router.git

I've tried sudo -H npm install -g meteorite I've installed and reinstalled it a bunch of times I have git installed, I have Xcode installed, I have Homebrew installed and I have meteor. All of those work.

This is my $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/git/bin

This is which Git /usr/local/bin/git

This is which mrt /usr/local/bin/mrt

Not sure if this is relevant but I have two drives in my Mac one that has the user folder and the other that has system files.

Any help? I'm a unix newb so please be very clear on solutions. Thanks

Answer 1

It might be solved already, but I had the same error. It turned out that Apple wanted me to agree on Terms, which I found out after running:

git --version

I had to run this as a administrator

sudo git --version

And agree upon the long list of Apple Terms. Afterwards my meteorite (and GIT for that matter) was running like a charm again.

Answer 2

Found the Error, make sure the Volume name has no SPACES. Mine had a few spaces and Meteorite git.js doesn't account for that. Just rename the Volume with no SPACES and it should work.

Answer 3

try running it as root:

$ sudo mrt

I always have to do this when using Meteorite to bundle on remote machines.

You might also need to create a symbolic link on mrt..

$ ln -s /usr/local/bin/mrt /usr/bin/mrt
