I work on a mean.js application (on top of express.js > node.js). I succeed to debug it locally (on kubuntu) with node inspector, no problem. But I fail to debug it remotely (from an ubuntu server) , after I pushed my app on the network.
I get this error on the devtools console:
Page.getResourceContent failed. Error: ENOENT, open '/home/remi/publisher-server/server.js' Error: Cannot find module '/usr/lib/node_modules/node-inspector/lib/InjectorServer.js'
But the server.js's file permissions are 775, and are owned by me.
If you look at this screenshot you can see that the browser access to all files tree and contents:
However, if you look at that one, you'll see that only the server.js seems unreadable (content tab is empty):
Here are the steps I follow:
I login my server with this ssh options to redirect the5858 port
ssh -L 5858:localhost:5858 my-remote-host
From the ssh session I run the app with --debug option:
$ cd ~/publisher-server
$ node --debug server.js
debugger listening on port 5858
Application loaded using the "development" environment configuration
MEAN.JS application started on port 3000
From my laptop I run :
$ node-inspector
Node Inspector v0.10.1
Visit http://127.0.0.1:8080/debug?ws=127.0.0.1:8080&port=5858 to start debugging.
Cannot resolve real path of /home/remi/publisher-server/server.js: Error: ENOENT, lstat '/home/remi/publisher-server'
You can notice the last line that throw the error that I found again in the devtools console when I finally browse http://127.0.0.1:8080/debug?ws=127.0.0.1:8080&port=5858 :
Page.getResourceContent failed. Error: ENOENT, open '/home/remi/publisher-server/server.js' Error: Cannot find module '/usr/lib/node_modules/node-inspector/lib/InjectorServer.js'
This makes me a bit crazy, what I'm making wrong ?
