When I run my app through npm run tauri dev, everything works fine.

I built the app using npm run tauri build, and then ran the .exe file but it fails.

I get this screen. Did I do something wrong?

#

is it in the browser or in the actual app? any errors in the console when you run it?

lean pagoda Feb 22, 2023, 10:33 PM

#

That's the .exe. I'll rebuild it with debug to check the console.

#

All I get in the console is an error that says:
VM109:2762

   crbug/1173575, non-JS module files deprecated.

hmm super weird, i don’t remember seeing it since our alphas

#

Yeah, it works just fine when I run the dev build. But, the actual build version won't start.

#

also the general output of npm run tauri info would be nice here. maybe your distDir is misconfigured

yeah ../src for distDir does not look correct, vite's default output should be in ../dist

lean pagoda Feb 23, 2023, 1:31 PM

#

I'm not sure how I should fix that. I don't believe I've done anything unusual when building the app? I just did npm create tauri-app, and have been building dev builds until yesterday.

undone jackal Feb 23, 2023, 1:32 PM

#

this is not the default output of create-tauri-app. You must have changed the distDir in tauri.conf.json yourself

#

but again, just switch it back to "../dist" and you should be good to go again

lean pagoda Feb 23, 2023, 1:57 PM

#

Weird. I don't know how or why I would have changed that, but that did the trick. Seems to be building just fine now. Thanks @undone jackal

This is really strange, I'm having the exact same issue.
I too had to manually put "../dist" for distDir, also used create-tauri-app with vite. "../dist" didn't fix this issue for me though 😦
run tauri dev works fine, just can't build

can you check if there's an index.html file in dist?

carmine dragon Feb 26, 2023, 2:02 PM

#

There is. I just ran a --verbose build and it's now working?

#

~~--debug still doesn't work, but --verbose fixes the release build~~

undone jackal Feb 26, 2023, 2:11 PM

#

i did see the start of the log you deleted. and apart from --dev not existing which you already figured out, npm needs an additional -- to forward the args to tauri, like npm run tauri build -- --debug

carmine dragon Feb 26, 2023, 2:11 PM

#

thanks!!

#

was just about to update

#

Works perfectly now.

distDir: "../dist"
run terminal as admin
--verbose log
run the right bloody command

#

Thanks so much

undone jackal Feb 26, 2023, 2:18 PM

#

the admin part doesn't sound right to me but ig that depends on the setup
