Re: `block run` unresponsive

Mike_Pennisi · ‎Mar 25, 2020

In the “hello world” tutorial, the command block run runs indefinitely without reporting anything to standard output.

I’ve collected some debugging information regarding the Express npm module via the DEBUG environment variable:

I was able to successfully complete the guide when using a MacBook.

+1 I have the same exact problem, and I’m on Ubuntu 18.04 as well

Mike_Pennisi · ‎Apr 03, 2020

@MacGregor_Thomson It looks like the block executable currently doesn’t
report a few critical errors. It’s hard to say whether you’re experiencing the
same bug as me, but it’s worth a shot.

Generally, the executable will exhibit this behavior if its “file watching”
mechanism fails. There are many ways this could happen; here are two
possibilities and steps you can take to work around them:

you’ve exceeded the maximum number of files that your operating system is
configured to allow. This may be because you’ve been running for a long time
or because the default settings are too conservative. Resolution: restart
your computer or follow this guide to configure your system to allow more
“watched” files (that second option only applies for folks using GNU/Linux)
you have a non-readable file or directory in your “block” directory.
Resolution: claim ownership of all files in that directory. On Unix-like
systems, you can do this from the command-line by running the following
command in the “block” directory: chown -R $(whoami) . (that’s a period at
the end)

Thanks @Mike_Pennisi! Indeed I needed to increase the inotify limit

Boaz_Sender · ‎Apr 13, 2020

I am running into the same issue on ubuntu 18 with node v12.11.1. I ran debug and got almost the same output talking about express router, but with my path info in the beginning.

Boaz_Sender · ‎Apr 13, 2020

Your fixes got me up and running. I’m now up and running after chowing the block project directory and its contents, and updating my file watching limit. Thanks!
