Hi,
I am trying to add an npm package via meteor add but I have been stuck at Updating Package Catalog for more than an hour now. My question is could there be a problem with my connection or there is a problem with meteor servers although the latter is less likely.
EDIT
It seems that when I enter the meteor add command it starts well then drops to 0 usage of internet so I do not know if its a loss of connection between the server and my computer or something else. I’m in Nairobi.
The same thing happened to me just now, but it just lasted no more than 5 minutes. Have you tried creating another project just for the sake of testing the connection out?
I’m experiencing this too when I wanted to run meteor update in order to go from 1.3.4.1 to 1.3.4.4.
I figured out that I could update the version number in .meteor/release, and when I then ran meteor it would update everything to 1.3.4.4. I will still get stuck if I run meteor update, but now I don’t have to.
Same here! There was about an hour period yesterday when it was stuck at Updating package catalog when I tried to add a package. It was fine again, and now again it is hanging up. I tried pinging atmospherejs.com in terminal and I got 100% packet loss, but their client site is accessible. Strange…
