Hi! Tried to install Phoenix on Manjaro for the first time using installation page. After installation If I don’t use flag --no-webpack, I meet
[info] Running TeacherWeb.Endpoint with cowboy 2.9.0 at 0.0.0.0:4000 (http)
[error] Could not start Node.js watcher because script "/home/pilot/Programs/webpunk/teacher/assets/node_modules/webpack/bin/webpack.js" does not exist. Your Phoenix application is still running, however assets won't be compiled. You may fix this by running "npm install" inside the "assets" directory.
If I run
npm install
in ../assets

Hello and welcome,
Maybe try to replace node-sass by sass in your assets.
Which version of Phoenix are You using?
Pilot93
Hi, thanks for answer and sorry for a late reply. My Phoenix version is 1.5.9. I’ve used your suggestion and gained new error
Error: Node Sass version 6.0.0 is incompatible with ^4.0.0.Server is working but webpage looks terrible like html is broken.Sebb
what is the node version? node 14 and phoenix 1.5 should be ok.
Pilot93
Node version is
v16.2.0Sebb
try downgrading to 14.
I’d recommend GitHub - nvm-sh/nvm: Node Version Manager - POSIX-compliant bash script to manage multiple active node.js versions · GitHub.

I had similar issues using node v16 with Phoenix. v14 and v15 should be ok, though.
Sebb
with 14 I have no issues, while I had some trouble with 15 (can’t remember what exactly went wrong)
