Can’t build/deploy Forge example app (Forge-Byline-DynamicProperties)

Forge
1

Hello everyone,
I was trying to build a Forge app from this repository:
https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/forge-byline-dynamicproperties/src/master/

However, when I execute the “forge deploy” command, it fails with the following error log:

Deploying your app to the development environment.
Press Ctrl+C to cancel.

Running forge lint...
No issues found.

✕ Deploying page-approver-forge-app to development...

Rerunning the command with --verbose may give more details.

If anyone has any insight, please share.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @NasmusSadat , welcome to the developer community!

I was able to replicate the same error you got when I did:

  1. Clone the repo
  2. Run forge register
  3. Run forge deploy

To fix the issue, you missed calling npm install before running forge deploy. That should do the trick.

Cheers!
Ian
