To [email protected]:hidden-reaches-9268.git
! [remote rejected] master -> master (pre-receive hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to '[email protected]:hidden-reaches-9268.git'

And this is my package.json:

{

  "version": "0.0.1",
  "private": true,
  "scripts": {
  "start": "node server.js"
},

  "dependencies": {
   "socket.io": "0.9.x"
},
   "engines": {
     "node": "0.10.x",
     "npm": "1.3.x"
   }
}

There's a bunch of error inside and I have no idea why this happen. please help. -thanks

Answer 1

I am working in ReactJS and I am trying to deploy my project on Heroku server. At that time I have found same error like this:

Push rejected, failed to compile Node.js app.

Solution is:

If you use yarn:

git rm yarn.lock

git push heroku master

If you use npm:

git rm package-lock.json

git push heroku master
