[Error: Server Error] GAE Nodejs8 Standard. Upgrade to Nuxtjs@2.0.0 and deployment fails (could be unrelated)

[David Davis]

I've been building and deploying on Nodejs8 standard and everything was ok untill today when I upgraded from Nuxtjs 1.4.x to 2.0. Everything works fine locally but upon deploying am getting this 500 error. According to these docs https://cloud.google.com/error-reporting/docs/setup/app-engine-standard-environment the nodejs8 environement doesn't allow error reporting. I see this in the console. Honestly confused how Im supposed to debug and proceed without any sort of error reporting. Please advise if anyone knows what to do.

I've decided to move to another hosting platform, there's clearly not enough support especially with the absense of Error reporting for Nodejs standard.

As per this document, Node.js version 8 is in beta release and you can find out more by checking this tutorial.

As per the errors you noticed after the update and deploy, please note that Node.js runtime in the App Engine standard environment uses the latest release of Node.js version 8. That said, you need to make sure that Nuxtjs 2.0 complies to the latest version and also make sure you have the same Node.js version installed on your machine in order to avoid errors when setting up the environment.

In regards to error logging, the beta release of Node.js support writing application logs with the log levels INFO, ERROR, and DEBUG. Please check more details here.

Hi David,

Error Reporting is supported by the Node.js App Engine standard runtime, we will fix our docs.

However, Error Reporting does not catch all errors (it only catches exceptions), you should be also looking at your logs.

Can you look at your application output in your logs? (Open Stackdriver Logging from the left nav) 

Can you share here your package.json? I'd like to help you understand what could fix the issue

We have many customers using Nuxtjs on App Engine standard, I personally made sure I was able to deploy a Nuxtjs app in the past

For Nuxt in the past, I had to set the HOST env variable in app.yaml:

env_variables:

  HOST: 0.0.0.0

Not sure if that would help in this case or not.
