Cannot find module '../build/safe-execute'

See original GitHub issue

Hi, I’m a newbie to preact. I want to debug preact, but when I run npm run test got the following error:

13 02 2017 11:02:38.084:ERROR [plugin]: Error during loading "F:\workspace\preact\node_modules/karma-sauce-launcher" plugin:
  Cannot find module '../build/safe-execute'

START:
13 02 2017 11:02:44.304:INFO [karma]: Karma v1.4.1 server started at http://0.0.0.0:9876/

13 02 2017 11:02:44.306:ERROR [karma]: Found 1 load error

nodejs: v6.9.5-x64

Can anyone know how to solve this? Thanks.

It looks like this can occur from a corrupted cache of the wd module. It’s supposed to create ../build/safe-execute here: https://github.com/admc/wd/blob/b1463ce/scripts/build-browser-scripts.js

Forcing a clean install of this module should resolve the issue. On travis I was able to resolve it by deleting my caches.

Thanks @voltrevo - that confirms it’s not related to Preact. Good to have your explanation around for those finding this via Google or if we run into the issue on Travis.
