Problem with router.php only when being ran from task

Looks it doesn't find the router. Keep in mind that base is resolved relatively to the Gruntfile, not the current directory. Run this from the directory of your Gruntfile and make sure the ouput is the path to your router: $ node -e 'console.log(require("path").resolve("../../../.."))'.

I've cd'ed to the GruntFile and ran the command you specified, but it threw an error. I was running it in PowerShell so I tried cmd. On cmd it does not output anything.

It's worth noting that the router file is kept in the same folder as the GruntFile. Does this task expect the router to be in the base path? The php command looks in the current directory for the router (I ran it from the same directory as the GruntFile) and can find it.

Thanks

Just got the command to work by escaping the double quotes. Works as expected and returns the path to the WordPress folder I want to serve:

PS C:\Users\connelhooley\Documents\Web\connelhooley\wp-content\themes\connelhooley\dev> node -e 'console.log(require(\"path\").resolve(\"../../../..\"))'
C:\Users\connelhooley\Documents\Web\connelhooley

I have two potential fixes. Can you try them both and let me know if any of them works?

1. 0123cba
2. b934191

[connelhooley]

I can confirm b934191 fixes the issue for me. Sorry about the late reply.

Thanks!

I had the same issue and reverted to 1.5.0 and it worked fine. There's something weird with the base & router setting combination with the 1.5.1 fix. My 1.5.0 settings...

     php: {
            dev: {
                options: {
                    hostname: 'localhost',
                    port: 8889,
                    base: 'cms/public', // Project root
                    keepalive: false,
                    open: false,
                    router:'router.php',
                    env: {
                        DATABASE_HOST: 'localhost',
                        DATABASE_USER: '*',
                        DATABASE_PASS: '*',
                        DATABASE_NAME: '*',
                    }
                }
            }
        },
