Error: you need to be inside your buffalo project path to run this command

[neutronstein]

I am getting error below while running buffalo dev and buffalo generate on a fresh buffalo new project.

Error: you need to be inside your buffalo project path to run this command

Buffalo Version

v0.9.4

Go Version

go version go1.9 linux/amd64

[markbates]

You need to CD into the directory of your application. You are not in the right folder. After you generate your app you need to go into that directory to run your app.

[neutronstein]

I did since I was able to run buffalo db command.

[markbates]

Please confirm that you are in the correct directory by running pwd or windows equivalent.

If you still believe you're in the correct directory, please run ls -la or windows equivalent. If you don't see a `.buffalo.dev.yml‘ you're not in the directory.

[markbates]

You are missing half of the directories and files. That's why it doesn't think you're in a Buffalo app. Did you, or something delete them? How did you create your app?

[neutronstein]

I ran buffalo new testbuffalo

[markbates]

Try generating another app without using the word buffalo in your app name. See if you have better results. I don't know why you only have half an app. Was there an error during generation perhaps? Did it exit successfully?

[neutronstein]

there were no errors. I got contrats at the end.
ok i will try to create a new project.

[neutronstein]

I get the same result.

Congratulations! Your application, alobuff, has been successfully built!

You can find your new application at:
/home/neutronstein/Projects/Gogland/alobuff/src/gitlab.com/neutronstein/alobuff

Please read the README.md file in your new application for next steps on running your application.

[markbates]

There's something seriously wrong here. You only have half an app. I don't know how that's even possible.

Can you run buffalo info and paste the results?

When I ran buffalo new in default GOPATH I was successful. I guess I need to add $GOPATH/bin to the $PATH for custom GOPATH. I will check and confirm.
