npm start - "ERROR in (webpack)-hot-middleware/client.js" message-FIXED

[richb-hanover]

Fresh install of react-starter-kit on OSX 10.10.5, node 5.3.0, npm 3.7.1

After git clone/cd/npm install/npm start, I get the above error. Here's the full terminal session that shows the error.

This worked in the past. Any ideas what's wrong? Thanks.

I'm having the exact same issue. OSX 10.11.3. Node 5.7.0. NPM 3.6.0

The folks who made webpack-hot-middleware pushed a bad update a few hours ago (webpack-contrib/webpack-hot-middleware#80)

Temporary fix is to peg to webpack-hot-middleware to 2.7.1. To do this, update the package.json to say:

"webpack-hot-middleware": "~2.7.1",

then npm install which will pick up the previous version. Once they fix (by pushing out [email protected]), you can update the package.json file

webpack-hot-middleware was updated overnight to version 2.8.1 which I can confirm fixes the problem. Update your package.json to "webpack-hot-middleware": "^2.8.1" Thanks, all!
