mup setup error on windows

[willygwu]

If I run the following command in cmd on windows
c:\Meteor\myproject.deploy>c:\Users\me\AppData\Roaming\npm\mup setup

then, this error message shows. can somebody help?
I am just trying to deploy on my local pc, after that i am going to deploy to real window server

Started TaskList: Setup Docker
[192.168.xxx.xxx] - setup docker
Error connect ECONNREFUSED 192.168.xxx.xxx:22

my mup.js is

module.exports = {
servers: {
one: {
host: '192.168.xxx.xxx',
username: 'root',
password: 'xxx'
// pem:
// password:
// or leave blank for authenticate from ssh-agent
}
},

meteor: {
name: 'hippochat',
path: '../hippochat',
servers: {
one: {}
},
buildOptions: {
serverOnly: true,
debug:true
},
env: {
ROOT_URL: '192.168.xxx.xxx',
MONGO_URL: 'mongodb://localhost/meteor'
},

//dockerImage: 'kadirahq/meteord'
deployCheckWaitTime: 60

},

mongo: {
oplog: true,
port: 27017,
servers: {
one: {}
}
}
};

It means that a secure shell connection like ...

ssh root@192.168.xxx.xxx

... that replies to the password prompt with 'xxx', does not succeed.

Since you are on Windows, you need to ensure that you can open a working secure shell connection, as root to that server, with Putty, I suppose.

UID/Pwd are possible with SSH servers but very strongly discouraged. You really should use SSH keys.

I do not use root. I created a distinct user on the server that is enabled to do mup work -- exclusively. I set the SSH daemon configuration to prohibit remote root logins and to prohibit password based logins.

If this is all new to you, trust me, your best bet is use mup from within an Ubuntu virtual machine, in your Windows machine. I believe you will lose a lot of time trying to work through all the weirdness of Windows for this kind of work.

Alternatively, and much wiser: deploy from a continuous integration service like CircleCI or Travis.

In the next few days, I'll be posting details of an example project that deploys with mup from CircleCI. You can read about the first stage of that in Kickstarter gets Continuous Integration. Look for an article, "Kickstarter gets Continuous Deployment".

thanks for your reply... Let me try one more time. I cannot succeed, better to go with Ubuntu

[martinhbramwell]

If you want to see my experimentations and failures as they happen :

MUP deploy entry point

and

CircleCI Build Attempts

Were you able to solve this problem. I keep getting this error even if I am using ssh key. Can someone point me in the right direction in deploying meteor app to local host with SSL authentication?

[martinhbramwell]

No. Sorry, I did not. I have given up on mup. As you can see it has dozens and dozens of unresolved issues, and ignored PRs going back half a year.

You are free to reopen this issue if this problem still persists. There have been a lot of improvements made since the end of this thread.

@martinhbramwell I am also getting the same error on Windows and Ubuntu, too. I am using Meteor 1.6
mup.js

module.exports = {
  servers: {
    one: {
      host: '192.168.1.104',
      username: 'gabriel',
      password: 'gabriel',
      opts: {
        port: 5555
      }
    }
  },

  app: {
    // TODO: change app name and path
    name: 'ReportApp',
    path: '../',

    servers: {
      one: {},
    },

    buildOptions: {
      serverOnly: true,
    },

    env: {
      ROOT_URL: 'http://reportapp.com',
      MONGO_URL: 'mongodb://localhost/meteor',
      MONGO_OPLOG_URL: 'mongodb://mongodb/local',
    },

    docker: {
      image: 'abernix/meteord:base',
    },
    enableUploadProgressBar: true
  },

  mongo: {
    version: '3.4.1',
    servers: {
      one: {}
    }
  },
};

@gabimoncha
I no longer use Meteor.

@martinhbramwell why not? What are you using now? I am using it to learn JavaScript. Do you recommend other frameworks?
