NodeJS deploying with webpack to Heroku: Build failed with error code: 1










-1














I'm having difficulty deploying a react/webpack app with Heroku that works locally without any issues. When I try deploying it a get a large string of text that ends in "Build failed with error code: 1" and then "error: failed to push some refs to 'https://git.heroku.com/vast-wildwood-63128.git'". I'm not really sure where the issue is coming from so I've attached my server.js and package.json, please let me know if I'm missing any information that would be helpful. Not sure if its relevant but usually I work with Linux but lately I've been working on Windows. Thanks

You need to specify the node version in your package.json, so Heroku knows which node version to run.



e.g.



"engines": 10.x"
,


https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/nodejs-support



Read specifying a node.js version section.
