Meteor Galaxy - Deploy fails, but the logs are all green?

As described above, I am trying to deploy my app to Meteor Galaxy. However, the deployment always fails. The app seems to be built, but no containers are able to start. It takes about 10 minutes until I get the messages:

Galaxy failed to deploy ā€œthe appā€

and than

Galaxy stopped ā€œthe appā€ due to failed health checks

I have no clue where the problem is, because I can not figure out the problem in the logs. The logs are all ā€œgreenā€.

I would appreciate anything that helps, thanks!

Itā€™s hard to tell exactly whatā€™s going on based on the logs, but any time Iā€™ve run into these types of failed deployments, itā€™s because Iā€™ve been working on different branches with different npm packages/versions.

From experience, Iā€™ve found that deleting your local node_modules directory, and running meteor npm install --save to regenerate the folder, and then trying to deploy solves the issue.

Many thanks! This actually solved another issue, which came up, after I solved my described problem :smiley:

I solved the problem by using this post:
Changing the backslash in myapp/node_modules/sshpk

Although this post is about a mup deployment, the same issue shows up by using Galaxy for a deployment via windows.

Just fyi, the sshpk problem will be fixed in Meteor 1.6 thanks to an update in npm itself!
