i also couldnt update to 1.4 Looks like there will be a split your current app might have to stay in 1.3 untilwe workout how to use 1.4.

To update my app to 1.4, i had to completely wipe my app, then my meteor installation, reinstall everything then recreate the app from repos. This was not a pleasant experience…

It seems to be the same problem that i have when trying to install angular templates:


I’m trying to install Meteor w/angular flavor, following meteor tutorial steps.

Excluding blaze-templates was OK, but when i try to install angular templates, the install processing ‘stalls’ in loop like:

H:\Radar>meteor add angular-templates
Extracting angular-templates@1.0.9… / (for ever).


The problem is in meteor add function (update too). I tried to install version 1.0.7 too with same result.

Things to try (using Linux/OSX):

Reinstall Meteor (anywhere):

rm -rf ~/.meteor
curl https://install.meteor.com/ | sh

Reset your app (inside your app directory, warning: this also resets internal MongoDB if you use it):

meteor reset

yes ! same problem, extracting templating@1.1.9 after 25 minutes when i broke the update ^C^C seems the problem is coming from node.exe in
