Hi everyone !
I'm trying to build my first course but i'm experiencing the following error after typing $ grunt build :
variable @ie8-max-width is undefined in src/less/adapt.lesswhich leads to
Warning: Error compiling src/less/adapt.less
Aborted due to warnings.
So the server is running correctly at http://localhost:9001/ with nothing within the page.
Have you got any idea on how to fix that error ?
Thanks for your help :)

Hi Stevan
Looks like grunt is pointing directly at the problem for you - an issue on line 83 of your .less file.
Hope that helps.

I've just come across it myself.
I can point at the problem, not solved yet though.
This file is missing - https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt-contrib-vanilla/blob/master/less/variables.less
The LESS notation for variables is @something and that needs to be defined before it can run.. i'm going to try copying that back into this project and it should polyfil the missing variables.
[Update]
So i ended up here when i cloned https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt_framework, and saw the same error you did.
However, after i dropped the above file (variables) into the project, it then fell over at templates stuff.
If you're just wanting to get a project built, the adapt-cli npm generator is a good one.
https://www.npmjs.org/package/adapt-cli
And it gives you all the plumbing you need to see this in action
One note : You might see a Karma dependency issue after you run "npm install" - just edit your package.json in your generated course to change the version, i find this works. ("karma": "~0.12.8",)
Thanks Kevin for your reply.
I was feeling that I had to define this variable in a specific file but I didn't know where actually...thanks for that !
However I tried yesterday to force the process by typing $ grunt build --force and I fell over the template error as you did.
I'll try what you advice me !

Hey Stevan,
Did you run "$ adapt install"? Looks like you haven't installed the core bundled plugins. Let me know if this doesn't solve the issue.
Thanks,
Daryl
Hey Daryl,
Thanks for your answer.
Basically I followed the instructions given there :
https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt_framework/wiki/Setting-up-your-development-environment
Maybe I missed a step but I don't think it was mentionned.
I tried $ npm install and $ adapt install but that didn't solve the issue.
Thanks for your help !
Stevan
$adapt install fixed it for me, i fell over a little when i missed off the global switch and 'adapt' wasn't actually a command, but after that it ran the installation for the adapt packages missed.
Still had to update the Karma package version but that was fine.

Hey Stevan,
Here's the instructions for a manual download:
https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt_framework/wiki/Manual-installation-of-the-Adapt-framework
Remember you'll need to install node, git, grunt (globally) and adapt-cli (globally).
Let me know if you need anything else or this doesn't work. If you get any errors can you send a screen shot please?
Thanks,
Daryl
Thanks for your answers, it's working :) !
There was basically an issue with Git after $ adapt install :
failed to execute "git ls-remote --tags --heads git://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt-contrib-graphic.git"
So I changed the "git://" by "https://" this way (maybe it could help someone) :
Then $ grunt build and $ grunt server lead me to the build visualization :)
Thanks !
Hi Stevan,
I'm glad you got this work.
There is an update available here: https://community.adaptlearning.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=352 - I think this may be related and worth being aware of.
Thanks,
Sven
