Hello, @ahsandar ,

I'm not familiar with either packer nor terraform so I don't know if they have any requirements that Konga doesn't meet.

For example, there is no syntax error in api/hooks/api-health-checks.js as far as I can see.

Maybe the project did not build correctly?

I would suggest using the docker image tho, as it is fully tested and working.

[ahsandar]

just doing following
npm install -g bower gulp sails sails-postgresql
checkout konga
npm install
/usr/local/bin/bower install --allow-root

Updated node from 4.6.2 to 6.11.2
Fixed the issue, not sure how it managed to work before

Great man! Thanks for the feedback and the solution. That way someone else that stumbles across the same issue can use it as reference.

Cheers!
