Meteor 1.4 just released!

Siyfion · July 26, 2016, 11:03am

You don’t have to migrate a single thing in the database…?

akryum · July 26, 2016, 12:24pm

Meteor downloads the update in background, so that when you enter meteor update or meteor create, it’s using the latest recommended release.

How can I specify a python version when running meteor update inside a meteor project?

I am getting the following error:

=> Errors while initializing project:                                              
                                              
While downloading npm-bcrypt@0.8.7...:

Edit – looks like I can just use anaconda to switch to python 2.7:

$ conda create --name meteor python=2.7
$ source activate meteor
$ meteor update

i try to install meteor in a server (gce), but when use meteor create myapp i stuck whit a error. how can solve this?

joshowens · July 26, 2016, 4:19pm

Now that we have Mongo 3.0+, you can use queryPlanner on your local box easily. I made a video showing how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9-9PCaEpbU

zoltan · July 26, 2016, 7:46pm

Yes @nickgudumac , expect an updated roadmap shortly.

Deployment is broken it seems with 1.4 so I have to revert to 1.3 for now

birk · July 27, 2016, 7:24pm

I have deployed an 1.4 app to Galaxy without struggle. Where are you deploying your app?

joadr · July 27, 2016, 8:11pm

I’ve found that when you update to meteor 1.4, the meteor packages’s toolchain get updated except for the ones in the packages folder. I had to do an meteor remove mypackage && meteor add mypackage and got it working again. Another issue is that every time I change the package version I have to repeat the procedure: remove and add the package again.

timebandit · July 27, 2016, 9:56pm

Running a meteor update seems to have got me stuck. Event if I create a new app using meteor create test I cannot run the default boiler plate app. All I see is the following error message:

Unexpected mongo exit code 100. Restarting.
Unexpected mongo exit code 100. Restarting.
Unexpected mongo exit code 100. Restarting.
Can’t start Mongo server.
MongoDB had an unspecified uncaught exception.
This can be caused by MongoDB being unable to write to a local database.
Check that you have permissions to write to .meteor/local. MongoDB does
not support filesystems like NFS that do not allow file locking.

Anyone else seeing this? I am running Ubuntu Trusty Tahr. How do I downgrade to 1.3 ?

@timebandit, @joadr and others - Please use our guidelines to submit a clear bug report including reproduction. We are unable to debug issues via the forums.

birk · July 27, 2016, 11:01pm

I think you have to run meteor reset

tomtom87 · July 28, 2016, 8:00am

I’m deploy to my own dedicated server on EC2 with mupx, mup and kadira/mup last night. All of these where broken for me. So I reverted. The problem is the docker image has node 0.40 set inside

timebandit · July 28, 2016, 3:03pm

Done https://github.com/meteor/meteor/issues/7511 thanks

Always the same story: not a Meteor upgrade without its load of error messages.
Really getting tired of this…

akryum · July 29, 2016, 7:21am

Did you read the migration guide?

phmzo · July 29, 2016, 4:22pm

“meteor create”, “meteor” and “meteor update” download meteor-tools each time!
I don’t mind getting Meteor 1.4 but DOWNLOADING STUFF ALL AT THE SAME TIME IS NOT GOOD FOR ANY OF US, hence this slowliness at getting something working these days.
Yeah, I needed to shout, because it’s getting really bad.

My solution: Cut the wifi, start meteor, enable wifi. Next step might be to shut down the computer to make it work?

One time I forgot to re-enable the wifi and I still got the message “=> A patch (Meteor 1.4.0.1) for your current release is available!”, so I’m pretty sure I already had the last meteor-tools for my version without needing to download it again and aagin and agian.

zoltan · July 29, 2016, 7:16pm

We’ve fixed the CPU issue by releasing 1.4.0.1. Some users are reporting slow or stuck updates, which we’re now investigating.
