Error while starting app

[jolic]

Hi,

I tried a basic setup with an electron app and it doesn't start:

`$ electron-forge start
√ Checking your system
√ Locating application
√ Loading configuration
× Preparing native dependencies: 0 / 1
› node-gyp failed to rebuild
'.......my-electron-app2\node_modules\electron-edge-js'
■ Running generateAssets hook
■ Running preStart hook

...lots of lines...

Error: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\BuildTools\MSBuild\Current\Bin\MSBuild.exe
failed with exit code: 1
at ChildProcess. (.....\my-electron-app2\node_modules@elect
ron\node-gyp\lib\build.js:215:23)
at ChildProcess.emit (node:events:518:28)
at ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:293:12)

An unhandled rejection has occurred inside Forge:
Error: node-gyp failed to rebuild '.....\my-electron-app2\node_modules\electron-edge-js'
at ChildProcess. (......\my-electron-app2\node_modules@electron\rebuild\lib\module-type\node-gyp\node-gyp.js:121:24)
at ChildProcess.emit (node:events:518:28)
at ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:293:12)

`

Any hints how to get rid of the error?

Did you try https://github.com/agracio/electron-edge-js-quick-start-forge?
electron-edge-js should always be excluded from rebuild.
