Error Message "ENOENT"

#1

ENOENT No such file or directory. The specified file or directory does not exist or cannot be found. This message can occur whenever a specified file does not exist or a component of a path does not specify an existing directory.

Would anybody have an idea where I can find a reference to the missing directory or the missing file?

I’m brand new to Jovo and man, am I impressed with the product.

EDIT: I was reading earlier references related to this issue of mine and I noticed that I do not have a file named “it_IT.json” anywhere in my project file tree. Is this file supposed to be in the project somewhere?

Hi @Michael_Reynolds, welcome to the Jovo community :tada:

When does this error occur? When you’re doing jovo run? Do you have any error logs that show what file this is about?

You only need an it_IT file if you build something for the Italian language.

Thanks, Jan, for the rapid response. Jovo run triggers the error. Here is about all the logs that I have.

$ jovo run

jovo run: Runs a local development server (webhook).

Thank you. Could you tell us more about your environment?

  • OS and version
  • Jovo CLI version
  • Node version
#5

Windows 10 Home Version 21H1

Jovo packages of current project:
jovo-db-filedb: 3.0.14
jovo-framework: 3.5.2
jovo-platform-alexa: 3.5.4
jovo-platform-googleassistant: 3.5.4
jovo-plugin-debugger: 3.0.14

Node v16.5.0
PS C:\T

I really just need a little input. Where can I find a detailed, call stack log? I just need to identify the “missing files / missing folders”.

#6

I’ve looked for this bug and it seems like it could be a local installation error. Could you double check the path where the Jovo CLI was installed? Here’s a Stackoverflow thread that looks promising: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27688804/how-do-i-debug-error-spawn-enoent-on-node-js

#7

Thanks Jan. I never doubted that the error was mine. I was primarily looking for a more detailed log. Does one exist?

#8

Hey @Michael_Reynolds

Do you get the same error with new Jovo projects right after jovo new ?

#9

no. only Jovo run

#10

Sorry, that was a bit misleading. I meant jovo run, but for new projects, not the project in the screenshots from the post above.
