I have installed edX production successfully on ubuntu 12.04 server and its up & running but when I try to compile assets manually I get the following error incase of CMS only :-

$ paver update_assets cms --settings=aws

Hi Suman,

What version of the codebase are you running? I'm not seeing this in master, so I am wondering if there was maybe a bug in the past that's been fixed.

[SUMAN GHOSH]

Hello Sarina,
                 Thanks for your response,I followed the instructions here https://github.com/edx/configuration/wiki/edX-Ubuntu-12.04-64-bit-Installation for installation, and installation is also recent will check if it works after updating.

[Sarina Canelake]

Hi Suman,

As I said, I've not seen that error and don't know particularly how to help further. I don't have an Ubuntu machine so I can't test.

The openedx-ops mailing list may be a better place to ask operational questions like this.

Best

Sarina

Hey Suman, did you fix this error?

I'm getting the same error message when trying to deploy Birch RC3 using the ansible scripts.

Here's the full message:

Hello,

Just install node module uglifyjs and will work.

npm install uglify-js -g

[Mario Torrisi]

Hello everyone,

I'm facing the same issue during the edx installation on a fresh Ubuntu 12.04. 

There is anyone that overcame this problem installing uglifyjs? 

Thanks in advance

[Aparna P]

Hi,
I had the same error. But in my case, I had run out of disk space. Just freeing up some space did the trick for me!

@nedbat suggested that I run the following command instead of paver update_assets lms --settings=aws for more details as to why I was getting this error.

I resolved this by fixing the missing comma and updating the assets again.
