Chris,

Apologies for the delayed response, I'm currently working on another project. I also got your PMs on IRC, I'll message you back on there now. But in the meantime, are you running CentOS? This is more of a Jenkins and frontend-maven-plugin issue as opposed to an apiman-specific issue, but I can try my best to help.

I think this could possibly be an issue with the fact that your project has a space in the name, as I've had issues in the past related to spaces in the project name. Either way, it doesn't hurt to try building it without spaces! Also, don't forget to undo the changes you've made to node/npm as you don't want it to affect that.

1. It doesn't need to use a relative path because the local Node binary that is being used is responsible for calling `npm install` (locally). Having said that, if you don't have a Node path set, it's going to use the globally installed Node and you try this manually without the frontend-maven-plugin. If you are 100% sure you're not doing that, then there could be a bug in the plugin that handles that: https://github.com/eirslett/frontend-maven-plugin

2, 3. Try building manually as the Jenkins user, so that it's easier to debug. Btw, what error are you getting on the build as the Jenkins user?

- Download the jenkins-cli.jar file (http://<jenkins server>/jnlpJars/jenkins-cli.jar) and place this jar in the directory from which you are going to run the Jenkins build command.
- Switch to the Jenkins user with `sudo su -s /bin/bash jenkins` on the build server.
- cd into the `/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/Upgrade APIMAN/workspace/manager/ui/war` directory, or wherever Jenkins is storing the workspace files.
- Use the Jenkins CLI to build it manually.  You can view the CLI commands available at http://<jenkins server >/cli/ ( e.g http://localhost:8080/cli/ ), but it will the build command will be something like this: java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://<jenkins server>/ build build-name [-c] [-f] [-p] [-r N] [-s] [-v] [-w]

Some of the flags are very useful in this case:
-f  : Follow the build progress. Like -s only interrupts are not passed through to the build.
-p  : Specify the build parameters in the key=value format.
-v  : Prints out the console output of the build. Use with -s

I would try adding build parameters to see if it's really an issue with the NODE_EXE var. Absolute worst case scenario, temporarily set the NODE_EXE var for that specific project either via an execute shell script on the Jenkins job configuration settings (can't remember if that's a separate plugin or not), or you can switch to the Jenkins user and set it that way. You shouldn't have to do this though, and if you do, I'd open up a PR in the frontend-maven-plugin repo.

Hope this helps!

Rachel

Hi Rachel,


Thanks for your response.  There are a few things here which are confusing me:


1. the build log says "Running 'npm install --color=false' in /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/Upgrade APIMAN/workspace/manager/ui/war"

is that correct? (it seems like it's trying to run a globally installed npm...) If it's trying to use a locally installed npm, why isn't is using a relative path to it?


2. If I change manager/ui/war/node/npm so that NODE_EXE=./node/node (instead of "node")  it succeeds.


3. The failing job is being run by Jenkins, and the Jenkins user has no node on it's path. But if I run the build as a different user who does, it works.


It seems that the plugin which installs nodejs locally, or some subsequent part of the build process, isn't referring to them correctly (and thus is dependent on a globally installed node in order to work).  Any insight? For what it's worth I can build the exact same source, from the same repo, with the same command, on my mac, which has node and npm installed globally.


Thanks,

Chris

Hey Chris,

When you run `$ npm install` or even `$ node -v` you are using the globally installed binary as opposed to the local one, even if you are within the directory, as you can see here:

npm ERR! argv "/usr/local/bin/node" "/usr/local/bin/npm" "install" "--color=false"

The deprecation warning at the end of the build log should not be enough to cause a build failure. To get a more detailed error regarding the build failure I'd try using the local binary from within the `war` directory you were in with `$ node/npm install --color=false`. You can also test that it's using the correct binary with `$ node/npm -v` or `$ node/node -v`. What is causing the build to fail could be several things, but I always recommend starting with a clean slate before each test build -- try running the following before triggering your build again:

$ rm -rf node_modules/
$ npm cache clean

Feel free to ping me on IRC if that doesn't help you get a better idea of what's going on. Hope it helps! :)

Does anyone have an idea as to what is going on here? I see some threads about the maven plugin that installs node/npm locally (https://issues.jboss.org/browse/APIMAN-771), but it isn't quite what's going on here. I'm especially confused about versions, since the plugin installed versions [5.6.0/3.6.0] locally but the above error message is referencing the globally installed versions [4.4.3/2.15.1].


Any help much appreciated!

Chris
