Desired functionality.

Mention any other details that might be useful.

Also seeing this exact behavior.

[BenjaminDobler]

Same issue here on win machine with medium large project. It works for some edits but then this error occurs. Sometimes immediately sometimes it takes some more rebuilds but it always end like this.

[bellib]

Same problem !!

[sheikalthaf]

same problem. can't able to work

[bberto]

Update: on the same machine, switching to a fresh new node 8.9.0 64bit installation solved the issue for me!

[CramericaIndustries]

Unfortunately I can't update to node 64bit, but did update from 8.1.3 to 9.0.0 (ARMv7) and still have that issue.

[pervizsalmanov]

Also, I use: https://yadi.sk/d/PISF7IxL3PX6w2

[sheikalthaf]

This issue happens when any changes made to the external file like interface or animation.

[vallinplasencia87]

Same problem. I update Node a 8.9.1 - 32 bits and still have that problem.

[hpyou]

I also have this problem,when the server rebuild ,throw error

[seelfidha]

problem solved by moving to node v9.1.

[ShubhamRungta]

In v9.1. 32 bit. on second compile there comes no error however the server get stopped.
Any solution?
