I tryed with multiple backups, very old ones enable meteor to start, but the latest version does work even if the exact same code works for my coworker.
I uninstalled/reinstalled meteor twice, I’m running out of solutions…

Thanks for your attention.

Have you tried switching to Linux? There’s no problem with Meteor on Linux and you’ll get a decent OS too.

3

Have you got an incompatible version of node installed separately?

This had this problem last week on Linux.

The solution was to
1 - uninstall Meteor
2 - remove the meteor setup files
3 - reinstall Meteor.

The bit you are missing is 2 - the setup files

I don’t think so, I’m working with the heroku toolbelt, I uninstalled/reinstalled/updated it but the problem is the same
I’m currently trying to remove the setup files

Have a look at this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15851923/cant-install-update-or-run-meteor-after-update

Unfortunately it didn’t work :confused:
