Ionic-cli: Ionic start command fails to complete after node and ionic-cli where updated

[jamiegood]

Hello there,

Since I upgraded node and ionic-cli, the 'ionic start' command fails to complete.

Here is the output when I run 'ionic start'

$ ionic start myApp tabs

So I've removed ionic, reinstalled and tried 'ionic start' again.

Now I get the following error -

LP-MAC-JG-0415:www jgood$ ionic start jamieTestIonic

✗ Unable to save settings file: Error: ENOENT, no such file or directory '/export/www/jamieTestIonic/ionic.project'

looks like this is related to the same issue as #480

[jamiegood]

hmmm, it's working again for me. Strange.

[sunjoong85]

It's not working for me. I cleared all ionic npm modules and config file. But still not working

[bsradcliffe]

I'm experiencing the same issue here.

[sunjoong85]

I add my stack trace.

1. error on finding config.xml and package.json
   -> it might have something to do with the start.js promise logic
2. New! Add push notifications to your Ionic app with Ionic Push (alpha)!
   -> I checked false to use Ionic server push. but It's not going to work what I meant.

Your Ionic project is ready to go! Some quick tips:

• cd into your project: $ cd tt3
• Setup this project to use Sass: ionic setup sass
• Develop in the browser with live reload: ionic serve
• Add a platform (ios or Android): ionic platform add ios [android]
  Note: iOS development requires OS X currently
  See the Android Platform Guide for full Android installation instructions:
  https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/edge/guide_platforms_android_index.md.html
• Build your app: ionic build
• Simulate your app: ionic emulate
• Run your app on a device: ionic run
• Package an app using Ionic package service: ionic package

[jamiegood]

FYI I removed the ionic npm module and reinstalled it
npm uninstall -g ionic
npm install -g ionic

I can now do 'ionic start myApp'

However I do see another error appear:
"An uncaught exception occured and has been reported to Ionic
Cannot read property 'statusCode' of undefined (CLI v1.5.0)"

But I have not noticed any issues caused by this.

[dizzy]

I have the same issue on a Windows machine and reinstalling ionic didn't do it. I also have an Ubuntu install where I don't have this problem.

Was getting this same error when running ionic setup sass

Fixed it with @jamiegood recommendation.

npm uninstall -g ionic
npm install -g ionic

I am getting this issue as well since updating my node runtime after being advised to do so.
Have tried restarting the mac.
Will try reinstall of ionic and perhaps cordova.
But in the meantime if anyone can help me I would be most glad I am really shooting in the dark now.

I have had to rewind to an earlier node_modules directory to get this to work. I think there are issues somewhere that others will no doubt find and get to here as well. I will update anything I discover..

[landed1]

I think it could in my case be the latest grunt-concurent build - see here https://github.com/diegonetto/generator-ionic/issues/223

This affects us who use yeoman and the generator-ionic scaffolding.

[sunjoong85]

It' all about proxy problem. Ionic request.js dose not reference node proxy setting.

[maowug]

Same problem here with "ionic setup sass", restart terminal worked.

Please help

SOLUTION FOR PROBLEM

Please check your environment variables, if C:\Windows\System32; is missing just add it in PATH and Restart cmd....all will work!!!!

[SamuelMarks]

@syedrazanaqvi C:\Windows\System32 is in my PATH, but I still get this error.

EDIT: Tried removing Node.JS, npm, npm-cache and my globally installed node_modules, then installing the latest Node.JS. Same error.

[abhilash0001]

Uninstall and installing ionic worked for me! Thanks :)

[zhangle]

I getting this same error when running ionic serve.

I solved by killed ionic process.

[tanya355]

I am running on OSX El Capitan 10.11.3 and have node LTS version 4.3.1.. after running npm install -g ionic i have a console output ending as:

[email protected] postinstall /Users/tanya/.npm-packages/lib/node_modules/ionic/node_modules/spawn-sync
node postinstall
[email protected] /Users/tanya/.npm-packages/lib/node_modules/ionic

so i assume everything is fine but running cli ionic gives me -bash: ionic: command not found

[SamuelMarks]

@tanya355 That's a different error. Check your PATH.
