Error bundling Meteor application?

Question

When I try and bundle my Meteor application I get:

$ meteor bundle app.tgz
Errors prevented bundling:
Exception while bundling application:
Error

    at maybe_assign (/usr/local/meteor/lib/node_modules/uglify-js/lib/parse-js.js:1264:20)

The application works fine locally, and I can't understand what is wrong from the error message. Not even sure which file to start looking for the problem in?

Answer 1

Meteor is trying to minify your javascript and the internal parser used by uglifyjs is encountering an error. Are you sure your javascript is free of syntax errors? Are the semi-colons all in the right places? Do you get any console errors in the browser?

Also, please specify which version of Meteor you're using.
