Node.js Deployment Backend Error-msnodesqlv8 package command failed

I tested the code on localhost, it is working so far, but when deploying on render, it has
errors. I used mssql npm package and msnodesqlv8 npm package to access the mssql database. The front-end has no issues so far, because upon commenting this particular code ‘const mysql = require(‘mssql/msnodesqlv8’);’ the deployment is working so far. I can confirm that both mssql and msnodesqlv8 package is installed in my nodes_modules folder and stated explicitly in package.json. What can do to solve this kind of error? and What are the reasons these kind of errors are occurring?

Please, upgrade your dependencies to the actual version of core-js.

Hi there,

It looks like you are trying to build the underlying C bindings for the MS SQL module. Our native environments do not include the necessary OS-level dependencies to do this. I recommend you look into using node-msql with tedious, which is a pure Javascript implementation. This will avoid building the C bindings for the MS SQL server.

If you really need to use msnodesqlv8 you are going to have to switch to Docker so you choose what software is installed with your service.

Regards,

Keith
