[1.2.4] Press 1.2.6 module troubleshooting help

[Jesper Rønn-Jensen]

I installed Press 1.2.6 and want to use it both for my CSS and JS.

CSS works fine (even for images and fonts refered in the stylesheet) ^1

JS, however outputs an "empty" file. The only content of the file is

    /*Press 1.2.6*/

Since CSS just work, i tend to believe that my routes are configured correctly. I also have added the "#{press.compressed-script /}" in my template.

I also browsed my play.log, but nothing jumped in my eyes.

I could use some troubleshooting tips. Where should I look for tips and which tricks should i try to figure out what goes wrong.

 

Any links, pointers, troubleshooting tips would be appreciated :)

I had a little progess>

in case I forget to write 'src:' in front of the filename, then the compressed file will be empty:

This will not work:

#{press.script 'file.js'}

This works (sort of):

#{press.script src: 'file.js'}

So, first troubleshooting tip is to remember syntax #{press.script src: ...}

The reason I write "sort of works" above is this: I still only get included my js files in special occations.

This file, for instance, only gets included if i set "compress: false":

#{script src:'thirdparty/jquery/jquery-1.4.2.min.js', compress:false /}

..and it will not be included if i omit the part saying "compress:false"

Strangely enough, I have other js files which will not be included -- not even with compress:false.

Occasionally I see this trace in the log

Dirk,

Thanks for the heads up.

I am not sure if I can describe my situation in more details yet.... Do you know if there is a way I can provide you with some more debug info? 

How can I make Press output more debug messages? My logs do not contain any "smoking gun" as to what goes wrong?

Hey Jesper,

I've updated press after some bug reports from other people, please give the newest version a try and let me know if it works better for you. If you are using the less module you might have some trouble, in that case try removing that module and using press to process less files instead.

Cheers,

Dirk

Dirk, thanks for your heads up. I will give the new version a try in next week when I am back from conference.

I am not using Less, so that can not have helped me. Press would benefit from better error statements in case something blows up (like it did in my case).  Do you have any ideas on how to improve error messages?

Dirk,

Both Press 1.0.32 and 1.0.31 fails in my setup. The application fails to start at all. I am not using Less and have no Less dependencies.

Could there be a dependency missing to be declared?

Did you try it or test it without Less?
