Nativescript-angular: Service exited due to signal: Killed: 9

[burkeholland]

NativeScript Version: 1.6.1

I'm unable to use Angular 2 with NativeScript at the moment. I'm using the template-hello-world-ng project.

The error I get isn't terribly helpful....

Project successfully built.
Using  /Users/burkeholland/dev/burkeholland/my-app-name/platforms/ios/build/emulator/myappname.app

Steps to recreate:

tns create my-app-name --template https://github.com/NativeScript/template-hello-world-ng

cd my-app-name && tns platform add ios

tns run ios --emulator

Updating with possible related race condition error on iOS Simulator. Could be cause by app size.

It looks like there are some problems when deploying application to iOS Simulator related to project's size. Some information can be found here:

As a workaround the following commands can be used:

tns deploy ios --emulator --justlaunch
tns livesync ios --watch

It appears to me that livesync is not syncing changes from the TypeScript. Changes their require me to run the deploy command all over again.

[jlooper]

I get this error consistently on iOS emulator when running Angular+{N} apps unless I use the deploy/livesync command above. It's a big workflow stopper for me :(. Hoping to get livesync working for iOS soon as well.

I’m going to open this up, because I know at least @burkeholland, @jlooper, and @sebawita are still having this issue, and I think we need to come up with some way to workaround the problem.

[tjvantoll]

I can confirm that this issue is fixed when using Xcode 7.3 and version 2.0 of the {N} CLI, so I’m going to close this issue for now. If anyone hits this after upgrading to the soon-to-be-released 2.0 CLI please comment so we can look into this.

[jlooper]

I do see this issue if using tns emulate ios or tns run ios --emulator with Xcode 7.3 and {N} 2.0. The workaround is to make sure Xcode is closed, reset the simulator (Simulator > Reset Content and Settings) and type:

1) Call tns run ios --justlaunch (Make sure you do not have any iOS devices attached.
2) Call tns livesync ios --watch

[georgeedwards]

I also face the same issue using 2.0, XCode 7.3 and OSX El Capitan, but it does work with tns run ios --justlaunch

livesync doesn't work for me, so I haven't found a way to get a console.log yet - really annoying

However, when running on a real device, the app launches without issue

[rdlauer]

Same issue here with {N} 2.0 + Xcode 7.3.1. The --justlaunch flag is like magic, but far less convenient.

[cfjedimaster]

I ran into this today. It took me about 10 relaunches or so for it to finally work. I'd seriously consider adding a note someplace in the docs for folks going through the tutorial.

[tjvantoll]

Reopening this because clearly people are still hitting the problem.

@cfjedimaster Warning added in https://github.com/NativeScript/docs/commit/0aebd9861f59f0511598ad20f7775b7cfc34e5f4. Thanks for the feedback as always.

+1 also having this problem.
tns run ios --emulator exits with Signal: Killed 9

tns run ios --justlaunch works for me, but livesync doesn't. I think that's a real showstopper – does anybody have a workaround?

jlooper's advice doesn't work for me:

This issue was moved to NativeScript/nativescript-cli#1816

[AssemT]

I'm having the same problem, can anyone explain to me how to fix it? I have tried these commands:
1) Call tns run ios --justlaunch
2) Call tns livesync ios --watch
No progress, still says 'Service exited due to signal: Killed: 9'. I read that it may be memory leaks or too much time to launch the app. To be honest, it is taking too long to launch, but I don't know how to fix this issue. Thanks.

[wdulin]

Followed the tutorial exactly having the same issue.

[berardo]

Sorry for reheating this thread, but I'm still experiencing the same problem.
Trying tns run ios --emulator and also tns run ios --justlaunch + tns livesync ios --watch.
As some reported, it takes ages to spin up the emulator. Once it's done, I can only see the splashscreen and then it closes (due to Kill 9 signal). Just fyi, the app is that 16 taps counter.
Any news? It's been a long time without hearing back from anyone.
Thanks
