  It seems the npm based installation workflow is broken.

  
  
  

  Can you try deleting your

  node_modules

  folder and

  package-lock.json

  . Then run

  yarn install

  and check again?

  this is plausible, I am using npm

  
  
  

  I am currently building in an ubuntu worker and then transferring the whole directory over to the host, including node_modules into the ./payload directory mentioned above

  that makes sense, I had a similar setup. After switching to yarn you should be fine I think 🙂

•

  so rework the whole workflow to use yarn?

  
  
  

  i'll give it a go now

  
  
  

  switched to yarn, deploys perfectly!

  
  
  

  although this is now the only component of the project that utilises yarn over npm, not world ending but I wonder what is cauting the issue?

  The problem seems that there are 2 different versions of the GraphQL engine being used (one directly and another as a dependency). With yarn this is no problem, as you can write rules for how to handle that (overrides.json) but npm is a bit more strict.

  
  

  Same for me, usually it is npm everywhere, once the dependencies are fixed we can switch back 🙂

  
  
  

  oh btw, if everything works, please close this thread unless you need more help, this helps to keep things organized 🙂

  another occurrence of this bug, I think I commented yesterday on a related github issue (which I can't find right now) but the npm workflow is quite broken as of now 😦

  ahhh is this related to

  express-graphql

  ?

• 

  exo37182 years ago

  Yes I think so 🙂

  
  
  

  should be reproducable with the minimal setup, but I did not try yet

  ok i'll put this on the radar. I hear that

  express-graphql

  is no longer supported so it's probably just that we need to move to a package that uses our graphql version
