Error when building SPFx package and bundling - 404 not found

[thepowercoders]

The script is running fine until the point it says 'Building SPFx package and bundling' which returns:

Downloading binary from https://github.com/sass/node-sass/releases/download/v3.13.1/win32-x64-57_binding.node Cannot download "https://github.com/sass/node-sass/releases/download/v3.13.1/win32-x64-57_binding.node": HTTP error 404 Not Found

When I manually try and access that URL I also get a 404 error.

I get lots of subsequent errors, but guess they are because above binary is not installing.

any update from owner on this if this project is still active? I've looked myself and see other projects getting this error. It appears that this is due to node-sass v3 being deprecated. Github no longer hosts the binaries for node-sass v3.13.1.

It isn't clear to me what has dependencies on that but I did notice a lot of other outdated/deprecated package warnings when compiling.

I tried to update the package.json file but it is still failing and not sure whereabout this is happening.

I have the same problem. This looked like a good project, but it seems impossible to install now.

Is thi project dead?

I had a lot of trouble getting the project to build until installing windows-build-tools https://github.com/felixrieseberg/windows-build-tools Globally installing node-sass with npm may also help.

Hi guys, @antonywm @KarelVDH2 @jcskillings

I had same issues on installation but finally had solve it with this command

npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

Now i am able to navigate in the application but when trying to insert events or requests nothing happens in the form

Any clue how to solve this?

Many thanks
