Issue on compiling in a dockercontainer

Bennse · July 25, 2022, 8:13am

Hello,

I am running into a build error on n8n inside of a docker container.
When I build it locally on my machine it works without any issues so I am quite confused on why it’s failing.
Never made any changes to the file where it errors.

command:
lerna exec npm run build

Errormessage:
#24 300.5 TS2322: Type ‘Vue<Record<string, any>, Record<string, any>, never, never, (event: string, …args: any[]) => Vue<Record<string, any>, Record<string, any>, never, never, …>> | null’ is not assignable to type ‘Vue<Record<string, any>, Record<string, any>, never, never, (event: string, …args: any[]) => Vue<Record<string, any>, Record<string, any>, never, never, …>>’.

Hi @Bennse,
can you post your actual docker file? Are you using our n8n-custom docker image to build your custom docker image?

Bennse · July 25, 2022, 8:50am

Hi Marcus,
if I had any information on which dockerfile is being used, I would tell you.
I am only adding new nodes when needed.
It always worked before even after adding a new node.
Now I added another one and it started failing.

edit: Noone else made any changes since the last working change

marcus · July 25, 2022, 9:37am

What n8n version are you using? Did you update your n8n version recently?

Can you try reinstalling npm dependencies?

lerna clean
lerna bootstrap --hoist
npm run build

Bennse · July 25, 2022, 9:57am

Version should be this: 0.172.0 ?
At least that’s what the n8n process says about version.
We did not do any recent updates (mostly because it usually broke something)

The docker is being built from scratch on every change to prevent issues so I doubt that, but I will try something.
And as I mentioned above, locally it works without any issue.

Bennse · July 25, 2022, 10:15am

Okay so apparently it only fails inside of dockers.
Locally outside of a docker it does not get any error (I usually don’t use a docker when testing locally due to obvious reasons).

Bennse · July 25, 2022, 11:30am

I tried with both the normal n8n dockerfile and the n8n custom one
Not really sure what else I could check…
especially since the Error doesn’t really tell me much

Jon · July 25, 2022, 11:39am

Hey @Bennse,

Could you run us through the exact process you are taking including how you are making your build docker container? It feels like we are missing a massive chunk of information and the more detail we have the better.

Bennse · July 25, 2022, 11:58am

Hi @Jon

For testing the dockerbuild locally I used the n8n custom dockerfile provided by you with the given commandline input: docker build -t n8n-custom -f docker/images/n8n-custom/Dockerfile .

I am not really sure what information you need tbh as I am not taking any weird steps or such.
All I did was adding a new node the same way I did before which never caused any issue (and since running n8n locally outside of a docker works… I am really not sure what is wrong or where I could have failed)
To run it locally I use: npm run build && ./packages/cli/bin/n8n start

Jon · July 25, 2022, 12:09pm

Hey @Bennse,

Perfect, So how are you adding your node to the docker image or is it just part of the n8n node folder directly rather than an npm package?

Have you tried cloning the main repo and just running the build command to see if that works?

Bennse · July 25, 2022, 12:35pm

Hi @Jon ,
I added the node directly to the n8n node folder(s), not as npm package.
The branch that does not have the new node does work.

Jon · July 25, 2022, 1:16pm

Hey @Bennse,

That is interesting it almost sounds like it is something with the changes in your node but it works locally

What else is in the error? There could be something else earlier that point towards the issue.

Bennse · July 25, 2022, 1:20pm

Hey @Jon

exactly, that’s why I am really confused tbh.
Haven’t found anything else that looks like an error earlier in the console, checked multiple times.
Just the usual docker building-log where it goes through every step.

So the screenshot I posted is everything

Jon · July 25, 2022, 1:42pm

Hey @Bennse,

The bit with an issue may not say error, What is the node you are adding doing?

Bennse · July 25, 2022, 1:55pm

Hey @Jon ,

the node is for Jira Tempo API mainly to request the worklogs for specific tickets/projects (REST API documentation) (also fully works locally besides the issues that are on the side of the Tempo API)

Jon · July 25, 2022, 2:00pm

Hey @Bennse,

The only thing I can think of is there is something local on your machine that is needed which isn’t being added to the container or installed. Are you using any extra packages?

Although it looks like the failure is probably earlier on, Can we get the full output?

Bennse · July 25, 2022, 2:09pm

Hey @Jon,

I haven’t added any new package, no.
Due to some secrets I will have to check again which area I can send. Will be tomorrow though due to my workday being over for now.

Jon · July 25, 2022, 2:11pm

Hey @Bennse,

No problem, Ideally we would need all of the file but anything sensitive in the log file you can just replace with or similar.

Bennse · July 26, 2022, 6:40am

Hello,

I am back with the adjusted dockerlog.
Replaced all the sensitive data.

Heyo,
I found out something about the issue again.
It only fails on productionlevel.

RUN npm install --production --loglevel notice
RUN lerna clean
RUN lerna bootstrap --hoist – --production
RUN npm run build

even locally outside of docker, when using those 4 lines locally to build it.

Also, VS Code is pointing out the error in the emitter.ts file (where the error is coming from) without any changes made to it from our side
