undefined jquery and _

[rbobrowicz]

Not sure if this is the right place to report this, but I tried setting up taiga using vagrant. vagrant up completed successfully, but when I tried going to localhost:8000 all I got was a blank page. I checked the console and saw two errors:

Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined libs.js:1
Uncaught ReferenceError: _ is not defined app.js?v=1412271620731:1

Is this an issue with the setup scripts or the app itself? If you need anything else from me to diagnose the issue let me know.

This seems that some things was happened with bower install, some dependecies are not properly installed, can you try reprovision again and see if some error is happens?

I tried running vagrant provision and it completes without any errors that I can see, but the issue persists. I still get the undefined jquery and _ errors.

So I had some time to debug this issue. The problem is indeed with bower. It tries to pull dependencies using the git protocol instead of https, the port git wants to use is blocked in my company's firewall. This wasn't clear from the vagrant output but become obvious when I ran bower manually and saw it time out.

I fixed it by running git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git:// to force git to use https.

You might want to consider adding this to your provisioning scripts.

It's ok, I will add that to taiga scripts!

Thanks!

I also had this issue with a college firewall. Solution was to rerun bower and gulp in taiga-front when outside firewall.

I also had this issue with a college firewall.

I was also bitten by this beast behind some corporate filters. This would be nice to make vagrant clearly fail and abort on networking errors (e.g. bower or gulp timeouts).
