DouglasEvans · 2018-12-24T23:40:09Z

Having tried a few more things I've been able to get the child theme working and editable, I still haven't had any luck with the parent theme but I thought I would have been able to edit it all the same.

0dp · 2018-12-25T14:36:41Z

Hi @DouglasEvans Thanks for your bug report.
I am able to reproduce the issue with a clean install.

CLI version 2.0.1
Local version 3.9.1

I am going to copy paste this reply from another thread I read:

It looks like this error is because Gulp 3.9.1 depends on natives, which suffered a regression. Gulp 4 is now officially latest, so we should look to upgrade to the latest version of Gulp to fix this issue.

#713
#735
#723
#779

@holger1411 FYI!

DouglasEvans · 2018-12-26T05:04:04Z

HI @0dp thanks for getting back to me, I've been able to upgrade my local gulp to version 4.0.0 while CLI version is still 2.0.1

I attempted to run npm install again but this time I received this error.

Hi @DouglasEvans

That is correct, the tasks needs to be rewritten to comply with gulp4.

Please checkout the gulpfile and corresponding package.json file in the understrap gulp4 branch.

0dp · 2018-12-28T15:46:24Z

@DouglasEvans take a look at this PR
#883

ernestorivero · 2019-02-03T00:21:53Z

I've solved the issue by installing specific versions for node, npm and gulp, they are:

Node v6.10.0
Npm 3.10.10
Gulp CLI version 3.9.1

It runs perfectly now. I hope it helps.

0dp · 2019-02-05T09:40:43Z

Yes, you can downgrade gulp but we might see issues with that in the future

brigleb · 2019-02-11T16:37:21Z

Whoa. I'm having the exact same problem, but I'm on Gulp 3.9.1 like @ernestorivero ... However, my Node version is 11.9.0 and npm is 6.5.0 ... strange. I'll check out that PR mentioned above.

0dp · 2019-02-11T17:00:35Z

Maybe you could post the output of gulp -v ?

brigleb · 2019-02-11T18:03:09Z

Sure, my apologies.

➜  understrap git:(master) ✗ gulp -v
[10:01:00] CLI version 2.0.1
[10:01:00] Local version 3.9.1
➜  understrap git:(master) ✗ npm --version
6.5.0
➜  understrap git:(master) ✗ node --version
v11.9.0

I looked at the PR but can't really tell if it's going to make things better or worse for me! 🤷🏻‍♂️

0dp · 2019-02-11T20:44:39Z

Before I give you dubious advice. Do you mind showing me the errors of, npm install

danieldevos · 2019-04-28T06:45:30Z

Good morning, everyone,
I also have the same problem impossible to use gulp on a new installation of understrap 0.9.1 here is my configuration

gulp -v
CLI version 2.1.0
Local version 4.0.0.0

node -v
v10.15.3

npm -v
6.4.1

If a solution exists, would you have a link to propose to me? I thank you in advance for your help

Dan

valeriykaminskyy · 2019-05-18T17:51:01Z

Had same issue, try to this solution npm install natives@1.1.6

ejooPasco · 2019-05-27T21:07:51Z

Just as feedback: had the same problem with:
$ gulp -v
CLI version: 2.2.0
$ npm -v
6.4.1
$ node -v
v10.15.2

valeriykaminskyy's solution worked, thanks

danieldevos · 2019-05-29T15:23:19Z

Hi,
The problem is not solved but I did several tests and the problem is just present on Local by Flywheel I tried on mamp no problem and on a virtual box no problem.

Regards

Thomas-A-Reinert · 2019-05-29T15:28:12Z

@danieldevos I wonder how a webserver could affect the gulp build-process. They´re two totally different applications that should not interfer each other. Besides I got my local setup also running under Local by Flywheel and never experienced any problem. Just as a notice..

danieldevos · 2019-05-29T15:34:08Z

You're right and I can't explain it either but that's what I could see and the return error is on the version of nodejs I use V10

MaikelGG · 2019-06-09T09:40:26Z

For me yarn upgrade in my project worked, I see it set natives to version 1.1.6 as valeriykaminskyy said. If you are using yarn you can also check https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/selective-version-resolutions, which can help solve these kind of problems.

danieldevos · 2019-06-10T04:47:25Z

Thank you MaikelGG
Your solution works for me
Thank you for your help
