Hi,

I am not able to generate a fiori elements Report Object Page project anymore.

The project is generated but the node_modules folder is not fully loaded with all dependencies.

The workaround is to delete the node_modules folder and do the npm install again.

I can not find any log on what could be going wrong.

When i try it via YO it seems to work.

So anything wrong in the Tool when going via the Fiori: Open Application Generator? Because then the node_modules seem to get stuck ... lots of files stay in the .staging directory.

I am using VScode.

Any ideas?

Greetings

Hello Danny,

Sorry to hear you are having issues with the Fiori generator :(. In order to help you, can you please answer the following:

- Are using Business Application Studio or VSCode to generate the app?

- What version of nodejs are you running?

- When generating your application using the Wizard, you should be able to see the output of the npm install phase in the console output. There should be a little "terminal" symbol in the top right of the wizard, when you hover over it, it will say "Show output". Can you please click on it, and you should see the output window display below. Then when you generate your application, you should see if there any problems in this output window.

Thanks,

Ian

Hi Ian,

i am using VSCode and just tried again but when i finish with the wizard with the Show output clicked. In the right corner stating "Installing dependencies ... " (this takes a long time already indicating to me it will fail)

and afterwards "The files have been generated."

In the terminal all the generated files are then listed but again no complete node_modules.

When i delete the node_modules folder and do npm install on the windows command line in the project directory everything seems to work.

npm version 6.14.12

nodejs version v14.16.1

Greetings
