I got this error. I have already setup following: puppeteer.launch({ args: ['--no-sandbox'] });

Added: https://github.com/jontewks/puppeteer-heroku-buildpack to Buildpacks.

Can any one help me out in this. Code was working fine on local host. But when I deploy it on heroku, it gives this error constantly.

Answer 1

I was having the same issue with puppeteer and Heroku. I installed the same build pack which you have mentioned and i used the following code and now its working fine.

puppeteer.launch({headless: true, args: ['--no-sandbox', '--disable-setuid-sandbox']})

P.S : I deployed again after installing build pack.

Answer 2

Adding this github repo to my heroku buildpack worked for me
