0.81: Cannot call method 'charAt' of null at isRelative (packages/minifiers/minifiers.js:88)

This exception looks similar to #2093 but is happening in different code.
It occurs after mrt is started and prevents the server from starting.

Can you please see if the test-fix-2093 release solves your issue? (meteor run --release test-fix-2093)

[pwujek]

Yes, the test-fix-2093 seems to fix that problem.
The app no longer works for unknown other reasons which I now have to research…
