nuxt build pauses after upgrade to node 15

Question

After I upgraded my nuxt application to Node 15, the build pauses indefinitely.

The local dev server stays paused with a "Loading..." message.

My problem here is

1. --loglevel verbose is not giving any more detail
2. npm run build is looking like it is OK. (I'm not sure though)
3. I can't actually figure out the error from the build log.

Atleast if I can zero on the error, I can try and fix it. Appreciate any pointers here.

Answer 1

Not sure if this post is somehow related but there are some issues with Node 15 as it looks. Especially since you've just upgraded to Nuxt@2.15.0. I'd recommend downgrade to a lower version of nuxt.

Answer 2

nodejs 15 has some major compatibility issues try switching back to nodejs version 14.x.x

Suggestion

use nvm to manage multiple versions of nodejs instructions for linux, Windows, MacOS
