Bcrypt

[CaptainChemist]

I am having an issue with mup deploy . It sets up great but when I run deploy I get the following error:

    -----------------------------------STDERR-----------------------------------

    => Redeploying previous version of the app

When I look at the logs, I get the following error:

I suspect that it may be due to the docker image that I am using in my setup file but this particular image has gotten me the furthest. I am using Meteor 1.4.1 which uses node 4.5 instead of the 4.4.7 which docker is apparently using above. I wonder if that is part of the issue. Also, at meteor's recommendation I switched to the newer bcrypt (npm I think?) because it said that it was significantly faster than the native one- I started having issues around that time.

module.exports = {
  servers: {
    one: {
      host: 'x.x.x.x',
      username: 'root',
      pem: '/Users/user/.ssh/digitalocean'
    }
  },

  meteor: {
    name: 'meteor',
    path: '/Users/user/development/meteor-project',
    servers: {
      one: {}
    },
    buildOptions: {
      serverOnly: true,
    },
    env: {
      ROOT_URL: 'x.x.x.x',
      MONGO_URL: 'mongodb://user:pass@.mlab.com:39685/test-production'

    },

    dockerImage: 'abernix/meteord:base',
    deployCheckWaitTime: 60
  },

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

I have the same issue with bcrypt. I am also using that abernix/meteord:base image. This bcrypt thing happened after updating Meteor to either 1.4 or 1.4.1.

I think I know the problem but I am not knowledgeable enough to solve it.

So I think bcrypt requires node-gyp installed in npm to compile.
I am trying to solve it by building a docker image from the abernix:base image, and install node-gyp in it. However, I don't know enough about docker to confirm whether my image made any difference.

Dockerfile I used:

FROM abernix/meteord:base

RUN npm install -g node-gyp

Then I ran docker build . and pushed my meteord to ivandaho/meteord

Then I set my mup.js to use my meteord image instead of abernix's

Tried to Run mup deploy with bcrypt in my package.json, and got the same error.

If I took off bcrypt in my package.json the deploy would end with a warning, but the app would be deployed fine. mup logs --tail=50 had the same message Meteor's console was giving me about doing meteor npm install --save bcrypt to use the npm implementation of bcrypt.

edit: By increasing deployCheckWaitTime from 15 to 60, mup would return SUCCESS when verifying deployment. However the app is still not using the native bcrypt.

[CaptainChemist]

Thanks for reporting a possible solution- I was able to fix this issue by removing the npm bcrypt package. I wish that I knew more about how I can roll my own docker package so that I could do this but if anyone has any good guides for how to do it I'd be happy to give it a try.

If you need to keep the bcrypt package and also use Meteor 1.4 I would highly recommend using the v1.4-build tag of https://github.com/CyCoreSystems/docker-meteor from @Ulexus

I had the same issue. I needed two things: update node to its latest v6 version, and install the node-gyp to fix it.

A very simple way to try that out is to use the docker image i created to fix that:
dockerImage:"guillim/meteord"

Now it works great !

It is bascially the docker created by abernix but where I updated node (from v4 to v6) and installed some npm packages i needed (including node-gyp)

Let me know if it helped

[ivandaho]

@guillim
Tried it, doesn't work for me - still can't run node's bcrypt - it gives the same node-gyp error. docker ps in my droplet shows that your image is the one installed. Both my local machine and my droplet is 16.04 if it matters.

[avishaan]

@ivandaho which version of Meteor are you trying to deploy?

[ivandaho]

@codehatcher 1.4.1.1

[doronsever]

@guillim I've change my mup.js to use your docker but when i deploy it i get

Error response from daemon: No such container: anatwaterworks
Error response from daemon: No such container: anatwaterworks-frontend

docker: Tag latest not found in repository docker.io/guillim/meteord.
See 'docker run --help'.
-----------------------------------STDOUT-----------------------------------
Using default tag: latest

Am i missing something?

[ivandaho]

@doronsever the docker repo doesn't have a latest tag, use any of the tags at https://hub.docker.com/r/guillim/meteord/tags/ instead, for example

dockerImage:"guillim/meteord:node6.9.1V3"

[doronsever]

Do i need to kill previous docker containers?
When i try to deploy i get errors.

Do i need to install Node 6.9.1 on my computer also in order for this to work?
