Call to Node module failed with error: If you use aspnet-prerendering >= 2.0.0, you must update your server-side boot module to call createServerRenderer. Either update your boot module code, or revert to aspnet-prerendering version 1.x #479
Description
Using package: Microsoft.AspNetCore.SpaServices (1.1.0-beta-000002)
Following the Microsoft.AspNetCore.SpaServices readme to install into an existing project (which is just a new .NET Core Web Application) and I get as far as step 3. Once I've added the JS file and refresh the page I get the below exception.
System.Exception: Call to Node module failed with error: If you use aspnet-prerendering >= 2.0.0, you must update your server-side boot module to call createServerRenderer.

Thanks for reporting this. I've updated the docs to account for the changed APIs in aspnet-prerendering 2.0.0.
lruckman commentedon Dec 1, 2016
Works great thanks!

Hi - Any ETA re 1.1.0-beta-000003 to include this fix?
SteveSandersonMS commentedon Jan 9, 2017
@danielwhymark This was a fix to the docs, which is already live. They now specify how to write your boot module so as to be compatible with
aspnet-prerendering2.0+: 2b2465a. It's a very simple change you'll need to make like in the diffs in that commit.If you don't want to change your boot module code to account for this, you'll need to revert to
aspnet-prerendering1.x as per the error message. Hope that's OK!ParkourKarthik commentedon Feb 22, 2017
I'm still facing the error even after following the Updated docs.

"aspnet-prerendering": "^2.0.3"MarkPieszak commentedon Feb 22, 2017
Did you try wiping out node_modules and re-installing, if it's not defined you might still have the old one in there. @ParkourKarthik
rimraf ./node_modules/aspnet-prerendering && npm iParkourKarthik commentedon Feb 22, 2017
If I am not wrong, I already compared with the latest source and it was similar: https://github.com/aspnet/JavaScriptServices/blob/dev/src/Microsoft.AspNetCore.SpaServices/npm/aspnet-prerendering/src/Prerendering.ts
Also, as per your advice, I tried wiping the package and re-installed it. But still no clue. @MarkPieszak
MarkPieszak commentedon Feb 22, 2017
In your
serverwebpack vendor config, is there an entry there for aspnet-prerendering as well?https://github.com/MarkPieszak/aspnetcore-angular2-universal/blob/fa00f9269b1d00c274710cfa28ce9615b7ef1e89/webpack.config.vendor.js#L107
ParkourKarthik commentedon Feb 22, 2017
@MarkPieszak No, there is no entry for
aspnet-prerendering.I tried after adding the entry, even replacing the whole
webpack.config.vendor.jsthat is mentioned. No change in the error.I'm thinking of downgrading to the older version as preferred in the alternative.
danielwhymark commentedon Feb 22, 2017
After checking the changes carefully, project.json, deleting node modules - got it working after rebuilding webpack config as below:
webpack --config webpack.config.vendor.js
webpack
ParkourKarthik commentedon Feb 23, 2017
@danielwhymark Very much useful. I tried that and fixed the missing webpack changes.
