Failing to build my app (W10), is there any specific requirement I am missing?

Is there any specific structure for the packaged app that is necessary to work? I have

/app-win32-x64/locales/*
/app-win32-x64/resources/
/app-win32-x64/resources/app.asar
/app-win32-x64/resources/electron.asar
/app-win32-x64/resources/node_modules/*
/app-win32-x64/app.exe
/app-win32-x64/*

And my package.json, from which I execute npm run make

{
  "name": "app",
  "license": "GPL",
  "productName": "app",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "author": "...",
  "description": "...",
  "devDependencies": {
    "asar": "^0.12.3",
    "electron-installer-windows": "^0.2.0",
    "electron-packager": "^8.3.0",
    "electron-prebuilt": "^1.4.8",
    "gulp": "^3.9.1",
    "gulp-bower": "0.0.13",
    "rcedit": "^0.7.0"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "highcharts": "^5.0.5",
    "jquery": "^3.1.1",
    "remote": "^0.2.6"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "start": "electron .",
    "package": "electron-packager ./app Kyss_electron --platform=win32 --arch=x64  --asar=true",
    "make": "electron-installer-windows --src app-win32-x64/ --dest dist/"
  }
}

But it fails, without saying any specific but that the problem is probably in my app. So what can be wrong with my app?

Thanks,

What version of electron-installer-windows are you using? 0.2.0

What version of node and npm are you using? 3.10.9

What operating system are you using? Windows 10

Can you compile the example app successfully? Not tried

If not, paste here the output of the following commands:

$ git clone https://github.com/unindented/electron-installer-windows.git
$ cd electron-installer-windows/example
$ DEBUG='electron-installer-windows' npm run build

What did you do? Please include the configuration you are using for electron-installer-windows. Trying to pack my app

What did you expect to happen? To build a single .exe file

What actually happened? It gives the error “Error: Error creating package: Error executing file (1):” … “The element ‘metadata’ in namespace ‘http://schemas.microsoft.com/packaging/2010/07/nuspec.xsd’ has incomplete content. List of possible elements expected: ‘description’ in namespace ‘http://schemas.microsoft.com/packaging/2010/07/nuspec.xsd’.”

I got the same issue yesterday and I fixed it this way:

Added a new file config.json

{ “authors”:[“Author Name”], “description”:“Description goes here”, “productDescription”:“ProductDescription goes here” }

and while calling “make”: “electron-installer-windows --src app-win32-x64/ --dest dist/”

add another parameter --config

"make": "electron-installer-windows --src app-win32-x64/ --dest dist/ --config config.json"

Check the correct path for config.json

This problem should get solved.

Thanks
