ember cli application build fails: The Broccoli Plugin: [object Object] failed with:


This error is because of inotify watches reaching the maximum limit in your system.

To check the max number of inotify watches:

cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches

To set max number of inotify watches

Temporarily:

  • Run sudo sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches= with your preferred value at the end.

Permanently:

  • echo 878987 | sudo tee -a /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches


Do you have watchman installed? maybe it could help bypass the Nodewatch problem. In my 64 bit ubuntu:

// installing watchman from sourcegit clone https://github.com/facebook/watchman.gitcd watchman./autogen.sh./configuremakesudo make install

full installation instructions regarding watchman can also be found here https://facebook.github.io/watchman/docs/install.html
