Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

I followed the steps at https://actualbudget.org/docs/actual-server-repo-move/ for migrating from the actual-server repository to the Actual repository when using a local installation. When I ran yarn start:server I got the error message Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find package 'convict' from <parent-directory>/actual/packages/sync-server/src/load-config.js.

I was able to fix this by running yarn install, so everything is working for me now, but the instructions in the page I linked above and in https://actualbudget.org/docs/install/local/ do not say to run yarn install. Perhaps the yarn workspaces focus @actual-app/sync-server --production command is not actually installing all the necessary dependencies? Apologies if this is somehow just an error on my end, but I thought I'd submit a bug report in case anyone else has the same issue.

How can we reproduce the issue?

I'm using Node.js version 22.11.0 and yarn version 1.22.22. I precisely followed the steps in https://actualbudget.org/docs/actual-server-repo-move/ as mentioned above.

Where are you hosting Actual?

Locally via Yarn

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

No response

Operating System

Linux
