fatal error?

[df6000]

Hello, I made it almost to the end of 'hello world', but when I bots-go -d my sketch I get a fatal error. Am I doing something stupid here or is something wrong? Am on Mac OS 10.12.1, Node 7.1.0 thanks!

df$ bots-go -d /Volumes/homeWORK/CK/-homeschool/basicBotsp5

I also get this error - any ideas anyone?

[sarahghp]

Hm I'm guessing from the trace its a serialport / updated Node problem. I need to clean this up and update some things. You could try changing the serialport version in the package.json.

I will take a closer look next week. Right now I'm in a place with terrible wifi. Apologies.

[mathildebuenerd]

I get the same, anyone has solved the problem ?

[sarahghp]

Can you let me know your OS and Node versions?

[mathildebuenerd]

I am on Ubuntu 14.04 and node v7.2.1

[sarahghp]

I suspect the problem is Node. I've updated the serialport and Firmata versions. If you installed globally you can run npm update -g p5bots-server and then download the new version of the client side scripts from the lib directory.

[mathildebuenerd]

Thanks! Unfortunatly I got the same error. I run npm update -g p5bots-server and npm update p5bots-server and something seems to happen, but when I do a npm p5-bots -v I am on 3.10.9, it's not supposed to be 3.2 ?

Hey, so I am a total dork and updated the wrong package. I updated my node version to 7.XX and I think may have fixed it. I had to blow away my whole global package to get it to work. So I would recommend trying first to run npm update -g p5bots-server again, but if that doesn't work, you can try npm uninstall -g p5bots-server and reinstalling, or, the nuclear version, going into /usr/local/lib/node_modules/ or wherever your global modules are installed and deleting the files manually.

Hopefully this will work. I appreciate your be willing to work with me to test it out, too. 😺

Also npm p5-bots -v checks for the npm version (it just throws away the package argument). To check the p5bots-server version, you can run npm info p5bots-server.

[mathildebuenerd]

It works! I just did this npm update -g p5bots-server and now it works perfectly. Thanks for it and also for the tip for checking the p5bots-server version, I am new to linux so I am not very efficient yet.

[sarahghp]

Woo! I will leave this open for reference for a bit and then close.

Thank you again.

I'm on Mac OS Sierra and node v7.2.1 - I tried the npm info p5bots-server command but still get the same fatal error:

Any ideas? Thanks for perservering

[sarahghp]

Did serialport rebuild when you updated? Can you try blowing away the files manually, uninstalling, and reinstalling?

[AlkyAA]

thanks that did it!
