Gatsby cloud deploy build error: bindings not accessible from webpack-dev-server:fsevents

I'm working on a Gatsby site. Currently I've got it building just fine locally, but when I try to deploy to Gatsby Cloud, it fails during "install project dependencies", with the Raw Logs showing this:

I'm on a Linux (Ubuntu) OS. Node version 14.16.0.

Even though the error doesn't seem to indicate that the build failed from fsevents not being present (rather that fsevent couldn't access 'bindings'--which is a term I'm pretty lost on, honestly), I did try installing fsevent locally, it failed (not surprisingly because it seems to be for MacOS). But I also tried manually placing it in either the dependencies and devDependencies of my package.json (my thought being that the cloud server would install it). That did not work either.

I'm pretty lost on this one, any help would be appreciated. I'm also not sure where I go to get the complete logs as referenced in the Raw Log above. I'll update if I find those so, if I haven't uploaded them yet, any help on where to go to get those would be appreciated.

Thanks

Assuming that the site builds locally as you said, the issue to me seems to be related to a mismatching of Node versions between environments (your local machine and Gatsby Cloud).

According to the Environment Variables Specific to Gatsby Cloud docs, you can specify the Node version by setting a NODE_VERSION environment variable, which by default is set to 12:

NODE_VERSION: Specify the version of Node.js your project should use. For example, NODE_VERSION=10. Defaults to 12.

In your case, use a node -v locally to get your Node version and set the NODE_VERSION accordingly. This will force the cloud to use the same version as local, hence the same exact working versions.

Further revisions to this topic bypassed the issue by removing the package-lock.json and ignoring it (adding it to .gitignore) to let Gatsby Cloud install the dependencies in their own environment.

The Gatsby Cloud support suggested to delete the package-lock.json file. And that fixed the problem for me!

You need to make sure to also include package-lock.json into your .gitignore file in order to prevent it from being uploaded to GitHub the next time you build on your own machine.
