[Snger]

1. docpad version 6.51.6

   show "warning: Iconv did not load, therefore we cannot convert the encoding GBK to UTF-8 on ..."
   error: Something went wrong with the action
   error: An error occured:
   TypeError: Cannot read property 'cover' of undefined
   at Object.eval (eval at (/Users/.../node_modules/docpad-plugin-eco/node_modules/eco/lib/compiler.js:19:12), :45:45)

Can you try the following and let me know if it works.

Anywhere:

npm install -g coffee-script

In your home directory:

git clone https://github.com/bevry/docpad.git docpad
cd docpad
git checkout dev-iconvlite
npm install
cake compile
npm link

Inside your project directory:

npm install
npm link docpad
docpad run --global

[Snger]

$ cake compile
-bash: cake: command not found

[greduan]

You gotta install the coffee-script package. sudo npm install -g coffee-script.

@greduan Thx.

[greduan]

No problem. I also ran across this problem the first time. :)

[balupton]

Good catch, I've updated the instructions.

Is it working?

[Snger]

Inside my project directory:

1. npm install : (nothing happen? Oh, I had run rm -Rf node_modules; npm install )
2. npm link docpad : unbuild docpad@6.51.6
3. docpad run --global :

That's strange, can you add me on skype - username balupton - or google hangouts - balupton@gmail.com - and we'll debug?

[balupton]

Any news on this? I'd still love to debug it with you...
