We are using node:lts-alpine as image for build stage.

Everything worked fine before Nov 05, when we run rebuild (without code changes).
On step RUN yarn

⚠️ ⚠️ all builds are broken! ⚠️ ⚠️

were there any breaking changes? if yes then why it was do for tag lts-alpine but not for the new one? Can anybody help? Please

[nschonni]

There are instructions for buiding native modules on alpine https://github.com/nodejs/docker-node/blob/master/docs/BestPractices.md#node-gyp-alpine
There are a few other issues about node-sass if you search the repo

[Marusyk]

But it was working. What happen? I didn't upgrade any versions

[GionDesigns]

Had a similar problem with /node_modules/node-sass: Command failed on building my application, which also occurred within the last week without any updates on my end.

Had a look at the node-sass docs and the node version on the server and it was using node v12.13.0 and the version of node-sass was 4.9.x.

in the node-sass release docs it lists that for node v12 you need to have node-sass v4.12 and up.

Updating node-sass version corrected the build for me, hope it helps for you too.

[Marusyk]

Thanks @GionDesigns, it helped. I've upgraded node-sass from 4.9.0 to 4.12.0 and it is building now

[daveshah]

My team ran into a similar issue this morning. Our dockerfile used alpine linux version 3.9 as a base (and ran apk to install nodejs). Updating our base to use alpine 3.11 seems to resolve this for us as well.

Ty, a lot!

[Arconapalus]

I'm novice here with npm and node-sass however, in my project I'm running into this issue.
How do you install the binding.node?

[zlove]

@Arconapalus - are you running your project in a docker container? If so, change the docker container you are using. For example, if you were using node:9-alpine (which uses node version 9.x), you could update to using the node:12-alpine docker image (which uses Node version 12.x).

If you are not running your project in docker, then checkout nvm which lets you install and manage multiple versions of node on your development machine.

[vggarg96]

Hi I m am using the node:latest image when the docker try reach RUN node -v it give me error node not found
I also try to run a command through CMD It gives me the error modules not found
I try to run CMD "node" "dist/main.js" the dist folder is there is the directory but it still give me the error.

Kindly guide me through this issue.

[dawidjaniga]

I had the same issue. The solution was to use Node below version 15.0.1.

[nainyshah]

how

[dawidjaniga]

The easiest way is by _n_ - node version manger:
