[BUG] Cannot read property 'req' of undefined when using serveStatic function

[futurelucas4502]

Issue

Setup:

• Deno Version: 1.3.0
• v8 Version: 8.6.334
• Typescript Version: 3.9.7
• Opine Version: 0.20.2

After following the tutorial for using Opine with dejs here I get an issue where when I try and load the site it gives an error

Not sure if this is relevant but I'm running Windows 10 2004 x64

Details

I installed deno using the following command in powershell: iwr https://deno.land/x/install/install.ps1 -useb | iex

I then followed the tutorial writing out all the code and went to run it using deno run --allow-net --allow-env --allow-read=./ ./entrypoint.ts however if I then try and load the page I get the following error displayed instead of my index page:

@futurelucas4502 can you try and confirm you still have an issue after using a --reload flag, e.g.

deno run --allow-net --allow-env --allow-read=./ --reload ./entrypoint.ts

If that fails, can you also see if you have an issue running with the following repo: https://github.com/asos-craigmorten/opine-template. This should be the repository created when following the tutorial.

Let me know how get on?

Edit: Just seen you've posted a repo for reproduction - will give that a go and see if happens for me 🤞

Slightly lost atm as I can't reproduce, but someone else has also had this issue now... This is my setup:

$ deno --version
deno 1.3.0
v8 8.6.334
typescript 3.9.7

on MacOS Mojave (10.14.6), so it could be OS related, but hard to be sure just yet!

Pulled down your repo and it runs ok for me (once realised the default port was 80 not 3000 😂 ). Steps:

mkdir -p ~/git/futurelucas4502
cd ~/git/futurelucas4502
git clone git@github.com:futurelucas4502/Opine-dejs.git
deno run --allow-net --allow-env --allow-read=./ --reload ./entrypoint.ts

@asos-craigmorten
I attempted using both the cloned repo and using the reload function the cloned repo is the screenshot below:

Using reload on my code is this screenshot:

It is certainly an interesting issue because the stylesheets load correctly but we still get an error about the request also if i purposely make a 404 error the page completely loads with details about the 404 error:

So after doing some more research it works completely fine on both Linux and MacOS therefore this seems to be an OS specific issue that only occurs on windows @asos-craigmorten

[asos-craigmorten]

@futurelucas4502 great work confirming! I suspect there may be some path manipulation logic that needs fixing somewhere, that is generally the cause of cross-OS issues

[asos-craigmorten]

Closed automatically with the linked PR #59

@futurelucas4502 can you confirm whether opine@0.21.1 resolves the issue or whether I've just fixed something unrelated 😂 re-reading here I think it might be the latter... 😅

[asos-craigmorten]

Ok, I'm able to reproduce under different means on MacOS using the static-files example and navigating to http://localhost:3000/js which invokes the redirect directory listener and then errors with the same message as you have been seeing - will give fixing that a whirl and 🤞 it also solves your issue!

[asos-craigmorten]

@futurelucas4502 can you confirm whether opine@0.21.2 resolves the issue?

[futurelucas4502]

hi @asos-craigmorten thanks for all your work I can confirm opine@0.21.2 fixes the problem and opine now works on windows properly!

That’s awesome to hear! 🍾 please raise further issues if find anything else isn’t quite right 😄
