Nuxt deployment error: server resources are not available

Question

To deploy our nuxt website in ssr mode we first build and unit test website in the bitbucket pipeline and if tests are green we copy build files from bitbucket servers to our production server and trigger start.

The problem is that Nuxt documentation says nothing about which exact files are required on the server.

currently we are using:

.nuxt/  
server/  
static/  
nuxt.config.js 

Sometimes after adding functionality to the website, deployed version throws an error:

Error: Server resources are not available!

At the same time local version works fine.
Also running production server locally on the project works. Error kinda hints that some paths picked up incorrectly by nuxt.. but the directory structure is completely the same.

Any ideas why this happens and how to fix that?

Answer 1

If errors also mentions, Please check "file path"/.nuxt/dist/server existence. Then on the terminal

cd .nuxt

check if 'dist' folder exists. If it does not exists,

go back and npm run build. this will generate the 'dist' folder for use.

If Still facing the issue, try,

npm install --save nuxt
npm install --save vue-server-renderer

Answer 2

Try adding: dev: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'DEV' to nuxt.config.js
