Pipelines failing with "could not get uid/gid" error

XMLWordPrintable

      The Docker build fails when installing npm with command npm install npm@latest -g, with the following error:

      [91mError: could not get uid/gid

TypeError: Cannot read property 'get' of undefined
                 ^
TypeError: Cannot read property 'get' of undefined

    at process._fatalException (bootstrap_node.js:374:26)
The command '/bin/sh -c apk add --update nodejs nodejs-npm && npm install npm@latest -g' returned a non-zero code: 7

      When building the Docker-image locally it works without any problems.

      Workaround is to set the "unsafe-perm" flag as true seems to fix this particular issue, but other node-related things may fail using this flag.
