I installed Meteor (p.s I'm new to app developement) onto my laptop (running Windows 10) and have created an app for which I have downloaded packages for (materialize, accounts-ui and passwords). The problem that I'm facing is that whenever I make changes to the html,css or js files, I get "client-modified" on my terminal, but it never actually refreshes. It's just stuck there in a loop after no matter how many modifications I make. Is this due to the current Meteor version I have installed (1.2.1)?
=> Client modified -- refreshing
This happened to me also, yesterday and today, that's how I found this question.
My observations are:
check if the app is running and working despite the apparent hang. If it does, try making a simple change in a html or template file and see if the app auto-updates. It did for me, but your mileage may vary.
If it gets too annoying, you can always just kill and restart the app. Shouldn't take too long. Check if this improves the situation.
If 2. does not help you may try "meteor reset" to clean things up, but ONLY if you just started developing your app and don't care about losing any app data (MongoDB get's wiped along with the rest of the /.meteor/local folder)
Hope the above helps...

I've been at this for past 2 days and I'm getting weird errors from the store.
I'm trying to upload an update to my application "CoManga" via the store and it's not working out.
I'm working on Xamarin.Forms (UWP) and before making the appxbundle, I made sure and "associated my app with CoManga" from my developer account. All the information over there matches and should work fine without any issues.
Then I made a release of my UWP app, got the bundle and I tried to upload it to UWP.
It said that the Publisher info is different, so it couldn't upload. This is weird because I tried signing the bundle with my developer account itself.
Now, I tried building and signing the app bundle from app center. I got the appxbundle and that I tried to upload. But, since today it's giving me weird error :
The package comic_dl.UWP_2.1.15.0_ARM_x86_x64.appxbundle is taking a
long time to process. If this isn’t completed soon, try refreshing the
page, or remove the package and then upload it again. If you continue
to see this issue, contact support.
This package I tried to build from my system manually : https://drive.google.com/open?id=1VVvF6IB70R2DKNUgBJcqw-HryL1LIwgo
This is what I got from App center : https://drive.google.com/open?id=1o0sGKU2AKVgrcTelIoRFz7QCe8Do0WJ3
This is the Store ID : 9N81F8B5WW93
Can someone guide me what I might be doing wrong/missing something.
Thanks
EDIT Update : So, I followed the suggestion and contacted Microsoft's Team for help on this issue. After 3 months of multiple contacts, I was able to get someone to reply back and follow the case. Even they tried things on their end and I tried by deleting all the certificate files I had in my current project and tried to manually build the manifest file and then it worked. I'm not entirely sure what worked out in the end. But, you can try these things if you run into this issue.
1.) Clean your project.
2.) Delete .vs directory.
3.) Look for any certificate files in your project. Back them up somewhere else and then delete them from the project (Don't exclude from project, just delete them entirely). Clean and rebuild your solution.
4.) Check if the application is already installed on your system (When you debug, VS will install your UWP app on your machine to run it). If it's installed, uninstall it completely.
5.) Make a backup of your manifest file and try to create a new manifest file.
These are the links I received from Microsoft Help:
PFN and package publisher name must match values here: https://partner.microsoft.com/en-us/dashboard/products/{YourAppID}/identity
Update manually: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/schemas/appxpackage/how-to-create-a-package-manifest-manually
Update in VS: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/schemas/appxpackage/uapmanifestschema/generate-package-manifest
If these values were pulled from test certificate, partner needs to update their test cert: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/msix/package/create-certificate-package-signing
I think this problem is not caused by anything code related, but rather it is a problem on the Store side. I would suggest contacting the Store support, they should be able to investigate if there is something wrong with your app package or the problem is on their side.
For support go to the official website, click the Contact Us tab and fill out the form accordingly.
The team should be able to advise even for the first error with different publisher info. If your app was always associated with the same account, there is no reason it should give you such an error message.
I had this issue gazillion of times. It is so frustrating. That error message isn't useful at all.
Anyway - I think it is something in Package.appxmanifest, something in Identity tag.
Retrieving some necessary info from store helped me.
Click right on your project -> Publish -> Associate App with the Store. This will update Package Display Name,Package Name,Publisher ID,Publisher Display Name and Version with correct values (within Package.appxmanifes).
Also be careful with version number. The last from numbers must be zero. 1.1.1.0 is fine, while 1.1.1.1 is not.
My relatively simple meteor app has got into the state where it refreshes constantly on load. This means you can't use the app at all. I have tried the following:
meteor reset
meteor update
reinstall meteor
restart computer
reverting to old versions of my code that are known to be good
In all cases, navigating to localhost:3000 will show the page and then immediately start a page refresh loop.
Since even very old versions show this behaviour, I am guessing it is something about meteor, not about my code but I have no idea where to start looking.
So my question is, what things might cause a meteor (1.4.1.2 and 1.4.1.3 both tried) app to get into a constant page-refresh loop?
My Meteor file change watcher is taking forever to detect my file changes and refresh the browser, sometimes even longer than a minute. This makes developing a real pain.
My Meteor is running inside an Ubuntu-VM. The projects folder lies in my OSX and is mounted inside the VM. So I'm aware that inotify/kqueue won't work, so Meteor should fallback to stat polling.
I even set the environment variables according to this post, but the behavior is still the same.
METEOR_WATCH_FORCE_POLLING=true
METEOR_WATCH_POLLING_INTERVAL_MS=500
Is there any way to fix this annoying behavior?
The folder from OSX is mounted as a nfs share btw.
Update:
I did some testing and there is no difference if the application has a big amount of packages or is taking long to build, even with the very basic app you get after meteor create I still get the same behavior.
If I change a file in the VM (so that inotify works) the refresh is happening instantly.
I've have apps in production that incrementally become slower when adding packages, both 3rd party and private packages. I also discovered that adding 3rd libs directly on the client/lib increases the reloading time.
I'm not sure if Meteor 1.0.2 actually solved the problem of watching the directory efficiently.
What version of Meteor are you using?
Much of this lag-reloading issue was addressed on Meteor 1.0.2. While it still takes some time, I would say was ~5x faster on my experience.
I have created my first meteor app today and am kind of stuck. Everything works extremely well on localhost:3000, very responsive etc. It is a simple task app, where users can post tasks to a feed that displays all tasks an then claim those tasks, removing them from the general feed and putting them into their personal feed. But when I deploy it to a meteor.com server, everything breaks.
This is the js file
https://github.com/valentin-zambelli/brokenjs/blob/master/mvp.js
Accounts.ui.config({
passwordSignupFields: "USERNAME_ONLY"
});
gets ignored and whenever I try to post a new task the page reloads, getting stuck on app.meteor.com/?text=some+new+task and doesnt display the task in the general taskfeed.
I have removed the insecure and autopublish package. Is there anything I am missing here? It kind of seems as if it uses an older, broken build. I also get the ReferenceError: Can't find variable: require when deploying, but I can't really figure out where this is coming from.
I hope someone can help me.
Ok, it was an insanely stupid mistake on my part: The mongodb was still in an older state and caused a conflict. If you have problems deploying your meteor app try
meteor deploy myapp.meteor.com -- delete
This will delete all resources on the server, including the database. Then do a simple
meteor deploy myapp.meteor.com
So I'm working on my Meteor project and all of a sudden everything stops working and my console reports that everything is 'undefined'. See screenshot. Why does this happen? Usually things will just randomly start working again after I reboot my machine or go get lunch.
This can happen if you have a hot code reload during when the page is loading from a previous hot code reload.
Your browser will eventually reconnect to the server, reconnect & refresh the page. In the case above it looks the the bit of Js that connects to the server doesn't get loaded to begin with (the DDP bit) so it doesn't behave as normal. If it reconnects it can fix it self by refreshing.
It's very hard to tell what exactly is causing it from the information you've given. I'd look at custom packages that replace core packages or some kind of of package you have that runs early on in your code that would stop the normal loading of a project.
If you're using meteor on windows there are a couple of bugs that do this too. I'm not sure how to get past those besides doing Ctrl+C to stop and then using meteor to start the project again.
