Fatal error: spawn ENOENT about grunt-jsdoc

[krampstudio]

could you post the result of grunt jsdoc --debug and also execute the given jsdoc cmd to let me know if it succeed.

Here's the debug. I'm not exactly sure on what you mean by the given jsdoc cmd?

C:\Users\Ajay\Desktop\GruntTut>grunt jsdoc --debug

[krampstudio]

Try to run :
cmd /c node_modules\grunt-jsdoc\node_modules\jsdoc\jsdoc --private --destination doc ./scripts/testdoc2.js

[Carpetfizz]

I get this:

C:\Users\Ajay\Desktop\GruntTut\node_modules\grunt-jsdoc\node_modules\jsdoc>jsdoc
 --private --destination doc ./scripts/testdoc2.js
js: "C:/Users/Ajay/Desktop/GruntTut/node_modules/grunt-jsdoc/node_modules/jsdoc/
jsdoc.js", line 306: exception from uncaught JavaScript throw: Error: ENOENT, no
 such file or directory './scripts/testdoc2.js'

If it helps, this is the absolute filepath of my file: C:\Users\Ajay\Desktop\GruntTut\scripts\testdoc2.js

[krampstudio]

copy the full command in your cmd.exe with the current directory at the root of your project and let me know what's the result (an error, the doc is created, etc.).

[Carpetfizz]

The result is that there is an error and a "doc" folder that is created at the root. But the folder is empty.

[krampstudio]

Could you paste the error please.

[Carpetfizz]

That is the error:

js: "C:/Users/Ajay/Desktop/GruntTut/node_modules/grunt-jsdoc/node_modules/jsdoc/
jsdoc.js", line 306: exception from uncaught JavaScript throw: Error: ENOENT, no
 such file or directory './scripts/testdoc2.js'

[krampstudio]

jsdoc doesn't find the file you try to generate the documentation from

[Carpetfizz]

Do you have a suggestion on how I should write the pattern in the src: option in my gruntfile?
My file is in: C:\Users\Ajay\Desktop\GruntTut\scripts\testdoc2.js

[krampstudio]

your pattern is right.
did you run the command cmd /c node_modules\grunt-jsdoc\node_modules\jsdoc\jsdoc --private --destination doc ./scripts/testdoc2.js from the folder C:\Users\Ajay\Desktop\GruntTut

[Carpetfizz]

oh! That was my mistake, I was running it from C:. Thank you very much for your help! Also, do I have to use that command from now on instead of just grunt jsdoc ?

[krampstudio]

No, the command I ask you to run is the command the plugin execute to call jsdoc. Continue to use grunt jsdoc

[Carpetfizz]

Cool, thanks! Everything is fine now.
