Issue when I run "grunt build"

I am working with grunt and when I write "grunt build" my dist folder builds everything, except for the js files. I get the following message:

I'm guessing I have to edit my Gruntfile, but I'm not sure how to go about solving this.

My Gruntfile is long, but here is the uglify part: enter image description here

What does it mean by the destination was not written because src files were empty

It means the files listed in dist: {src:"<%config.app%>*" were not created yet. Use the following process:

  • Run copy and uglify manually and verbosely

    grunt copy:dist --verbose
    grunt uglify:dist --verbose
    
  • If it works, reorganize the task in question in the registerTask method:

    grunt registerTask("build", ['copy:dist','uglify:dist']);
    
  • Otherwise, dump the <%config.app%> path to make sure it is correct

    grunt.registerTask('dump', 'Dump Output', function(){ console.log(grunt.config.get() ) });
