Issue while executing npm start run in VS Code using Fiori Application Generator

stan786 — Fri, 07 Oct 2022 17:00:11 GMT

Hello SAP Experts,

I created a empty SAPUI5 application using the template in the Fiori application Generator v1.7.5 in VS Code. I did not add any other code and just tried to execute the app using command npm run start and gave an error which is attached below.

I have tried with and without proxy, both didn't work. The SAPUi5 version is defined in manifest.json as 1.71.2.

Appreciate your help in advance.

Regards,

-Stanley

open fiori-tools-proxy.js(file location is in your error msg) file and change line 113921, just return false.

I had same issue a few days back, this trick helped.

Hi Jun,

Thank you for your help.

If we change directly in the npm module js file, wouldn't it get overwritten the next time I am re-installing the node modules in another system? I found that this issue exists with only the latest version of npm module @sap/ux-ui5-tooling which is 1.7.5. This issue doesn't exist in version 1.7.0.

So I removed the npm module using the following command.

npm uninstall @sap/ux-ui5-tooling@1.7.5

And I installed an older version using the following command and now it is working.

npm install @sap/ux-ui5-tooling@1.7.0

Hi stan786,

thank you for reporting this issue. I have tried to reproduce it, but on my side it works. Are you behind a corporate proxy by any chance?

Thanks and Best Regards,

Zdravko

I am behind corporate proxy, but it was working before, once updated, it stopped working, I have to use that workaround

Hi jun.wu5,

what is the response if you execute the following in the terminal?

curl -v "https://ui5.sap.com/1.71.2/resources/sap-ui-core.js"

Best regards,
