The slicemashine is malfunctioning. It either perpetually loads with a 500 error while calling the _manage function or informs me that I am not logged in. Upon logging in, I am unable to push my modules due to an error screen. I have attempted reinstalling the software multiple times, including with fresh repositories, but the issue persists. This experience has been highly frustrating, as I have spent nearly a day on it, resulting in a significant loss of productivity.
I’m sorry to hear you’re experiencing difficulties with Slice Machine. Let’s work through these issues together.
1. Authentication Issues:
You’re encountering messages indicating you’re not logged in, even after using the Prismic CLI. To address this:
• Update the Prismic CLI: Ensure you’re using the latest version. Update by running:
npm install -g prismic-cli
• Re-authenticate: Log out and back in to refresh your session:
prismic logout
prismic login
If the issue persists, verify that your sm.json file contains the correct apiEndpoint for your repository.
2. Error When Pushing Changes:
Encountering errors during the push process can be frustrating. Here’s how to troubleshoot:
• Check User Permissions: Ensure your Prismic account has the necessary permissions to push changes. Users without admin rights may face restrictions.
• Restart Slice Machine: Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve unexpected errors.
• Inspect Logs: Review the terminal and browser console logs for specific error messages. These can provide insights into the root cause.
3. “Invalid Context Provided” Error:
This error often relates to issues with the project’s configuration:
• Verify sm.json Configuration: Ensure the apiEndpoint and other configurations in your sm.json file are accurate.
• Check Network Connectivity: Confirm that your network connection is stable and not blocking requests to Prismic’s services.
Additional Recommendations:
• Node.js Version: Some users have reported issues with certain Node.js versions. Consider upgrading to the latest LTS version.
• Similar issues have been discussed. Reviewing these threads might offer additional solutions:
If after these steps you’re still experiencing problems, please provide more details about your environment:
• Operating System
• Node.js version
• Prismic CLI version
• Any recent changes made to your project setup
