I'm trying to run the Development environment of bigblubutton-html5, however below is the error message that is generated after running the following command: 

npm start

This is the tutorial that I followed: https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/2.2/dev.html

This is the error message:

npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
npm ERR! bbb-html5-client@ start:dev: `ROOT_URL=http://127.0.0.1/html5client NODE_ENV=development meteor`
npm ERR! Exit status 1
npm ERR! 
npm ERR! Failed at the bbb-html5-client@ start:dev script.
npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:

I got the solution

First

meteor npm install

Then

export METEOR_ALLOW_SUPERUSER=true

Finally

npm start

These commands solved the problem for me.

If it doesn't work the first time, maybe you need make this steps first.

npm cache clean --force

rm -r node_modules

rm -r package-lock.json

And try the first commands again.

  • hey i am getting a similar problem where i get error when i try to join a meeting via greenlight front-end and html5 client is loaded it just shows a blank screen and i get startup error Cannot read property map of undefined. can you help me out? I have also set up html5 client the way you have cause i need to change some css – JayD Jun 13 '20 at 12:31
  • Ho JayD, that error that you mention is most likely something of the greenlight configuration with the other elements of bigbluebutton, it could be many things, if you could show what error you get in the browser console, and together with the output logs of html5 -client to get an idea – Alex Perdomo Jun 18 '20 at 21:52
