WebService deploy failure

[maticrivo]

Hi all,
since some time I have started getting deployment failures due to npm dependencies missing.

I haven’t changed anything in the settings and didn’t add any new npm packages in my package.json file.

My build command is: npm install; npm run build
My start command is: npm run start

and this is the error output:

Hi there,

I have answered this issue with the ticket you opened directly with us. The issue here is that npm install is failing. You should use && to chain commands that rely on each other. Using && means that if npm install fails, npm run build will not run.

Your build will still fail, but it won’t make it look like your npm run build failed.

The issue with npm install The failure is due to npm modules pointing to a registry other than npm.org, which can not be accessed from our build or no longer exists.
