[BUG] `npm install` started to hang on "still idealTree buildDeps" for 60 seconds if there are dependencies pointing to specific gitlab repository url (a regression compared to npm v6) #3359

klesun · 2021-06-03T16:51:35Z

Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing issues

See #1991 (comment)

Current Behavior

npm install in a fresh project with an explicit git+ssh dependency on a gitlab repo (minimal example) takes 60+ seconds, seemingly it waits for some random network timeout before proceeding the installation.

Expected Behavior

npm install should take 2-3 seconds to install dependencies of the project in minimal example like it did in npm v6.

Steps To Reproduce

See https://gitlab.com/klesun/npm-seven-issue

I reproduced this hang in Ubuntu 20.04 with npm 7.15.1 as well as MacBook Pro 2019 with npm 7.15.1

git clone https://gitlab.com/klesun/npm-seven-issue.git
cd npm-seven-issue
npm install

_package.json

{
  "name": "npm-seven-issue",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "devDependencies": {
    "npm-seven-issue-dep": "git+ssh://git@gitlab.com/klesun/npm-seven-issue-dep#5f1b313978986974d4364585e6bd3689276f1697"
  }
}

If you are using npm version prior to v7.x, for example v6.14.13, npm install should be done within 2-3 seconds.

If you are using npm version v7.0.0 or later, for example 7.15.1, npm install will hang for 60+ seconds with following text:

[....................] \ idealTree.pql-box: still idealTree buildDeps

Note, you need to remove package-lock.json and node_modules prior to retrying the npm install, otherwise issue won't reproduce.

Environment

OS: Ubuntu 20.04
Node: v16.2.0
npm: 7.15.1

as well as

OS: MacBook Pro 2019
Node: v15.11.0
npm: 7.15.1

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

What happens with npm 7 latest? (v7.6 is pretty old at this point)

klesun · 2021-06-03T16:59:21Z

Like with ubuntu, when I update npm on my macbook to @latest (7.15.1) I also get the 60+ seconds hang:

Updated npm version in description

btw, latest yarn (1.22.10) has no such issues, only 7th npm has

npm 7.15.1 here, it's been a week now that this bug cause troubles. On my end it either hangs on "idealTree" or "reify". It seems to stall forever (or at least 5 min). Sometime retrying multiple times do it, but sometime not. I was suspecting some registry issue/lag at first, but yarn has no issue.

I think it's related to this: #3257

midudev · 2021-06-10T12:21:21Z

You could try to execute this using DEBUG=* npm install so more output could be provided. :)

bperel · 2021-07-01T18:37:20Z

@midudev Here's the output that I have, after that NPM seems to hang forever. The only thing that I did before running the command was adding "playwright": "^1.12" in the dev dependencies of package.json.

I have Node v12.22.1 and NPM 7.14.0

@bperel can you try it with v7.19.1?

@bperel can you try it with v7.19.1?

It seems to work with 7.19.1

@klesun @cronvel @midudev can you also try with npm v7.19.1?

Same issue for me on NPM 7.20.5 running on a dated version of NodeJS. Oddly enough, the install succeeds only if I run npm in --verbose mode.

RichGod93 · 2021-09-15T11:28:06Z

thanks a lot, this really helped me with the problem i had

illume · 2021-09-21T06:40:13Z

Getting a hang with npm@7.24.0 also.

When I run it like npm install --no-progress --verbose --loglevel silly I can see the same log lines repeating over and over. This shows to me there is a loop. Node crashes with a gc error on low-ish memory systems.

Not sure if this is the same issue, but I saw a related issue here: #3208

ED: One work around was to use a npmv6 generated package-lock.json file, then the install finished running.

npm v8.1.3 on Arch Linux also hangs forever on idealTree buildDeps when trying to install typescript.

gh-andre · 2021-11-24T02:37:08Z

I profiled npm while it was sitting on npm install lodash for 2 minutes and all it did was trying to write and update the gauge for about 5-8 seconds at a time. Not a single read. For somebody familiar with the code it should be trivial to identify what's going on - just attach a debugger and there it is.

gh-andre · 2021-11-28T15:53:49Z

I figured out why npm is hanging in the case described in my comment above. Maybe this will help others identify similar issues.

Basically, npm hangs silently for about 7 minutes (default configuration) if it cannot connect to registry.npmjs.org. In my case, this will happen for any VM created in AWS, in region us-west-2. Other regions, such as us-west-1 and use-east-1, work fine. You can test if that's what's going on in your environment with curl like this.

curl --connect-timeout 15 https://registry.npmjs.org

In a working environment you will get a JSON response right away and in an environment where it cannot connect to the npm registry, it will hang for 15 seconds and report a connection error.

I admire npm's resiliency in trying to install packages, but I wish it would report retries immediately, instead of waiting until it gives up entirely in 7 minutes, even with verbose output.

disabling ipv6 on my main NIC fixed npm install for Ubuntu 22.04 under WSL1

Thank you so much!

disabling ipv6 for my wireless connection solved my issue on Manjaro 21.3.7 with npm 8.17.0 and nodejs 18.7.0

ebaizel · 2022-09-15T14:37:23Z

Works on MacOS if I set IPV6 to Link-local (from Automatically). Thanks for the help.

ramu2514 · 2022-09-29T22:19:59Z

Works on MacOS if I set IPV6 to Link-local (from Automatically). Thanks for the help.

This worked. BTW, what is the root cause?

oscrx · 2022-11-13T14:36:17Z

In some cases the cause of this issue seems to be a misconfiguration of IPv6 on the client side.

There is no happy eyeballs implemented in npm it seems, if the system thinks it can use IPv6 it will. If IPv6 is not functional there is no fallback, unfortunately.

Try pinging an IPv6 website to validate if your config is working

ping6 google.com
ping -6 google.com

jordanliu · 2022-11-15T15:35:35Z

Works on MacOS if I set IPV6 to Link-local (from Automatically). Thanks for the help.

This fixed it for me as well, using azure npm registry

peter65374 · 2022-11-17T16:25:18Z

I have get same experience still idealTree buildDeps when npm install command. so I changed npm refer registry URL for workaround then successfully installed module via npm install.
$ npm config set registry https://registry.npm.taobao.org
$ npm config get registry

Cool, that works for me. BTW, the mirror https://registry.npm.taobao.org DNS solved to http://registry.npmmirror.com since 2022.6.30. So change the command to

npm config set registry http://registry.npmmirror.com

AnnieTaylorCHEN · 2022-12-01T22:17:19Z

Hi, I am on Mac M2 Ventura 13.0.1 (22A400), where can I find the above settings? I am not sure whether this is the root cause, as everything worked fine until today.

Node v18.12.1 npm 8.19.2

--- UPDATE:

Alright, I found where it is on M2:
Go to System Settings > Network > Wifi (if using) > Click on the connected ones, details > TCP/IC > Configure IPv6 from Automatically to Link-Local Only

After that I tried npm i again and this time it worked!

AnnieTaylorCHEN · 2022-12-02T08:09:01Z

Can someone enlighten me what is causing this issue?

is it npm registry?
is it Mac?
is it gitlab?

Why would the above solution solve the problem? Just curious.

In my case my ipv6 was broken, restarted my router and it was fixed.

There is no fallback to ipv4 build in.

@AnnieTaylorCHEN

Can someone enlighten me what is causing this issue?

There's a lot of comments that suggest changing networking configuration, such as disabling IPv6 or even SSL certificate validation. These sound to me like that are just highlighting the real problem, which is that npm sits there for 7 minutes, by default, with no feedback as to what's going on.

npm should provide some visible feedback in a few seconds that it cannot reach the registry, so people can troubleshoot networking.

A quick test for me whether this issue can be reproduced was to run this command and see if it times out in 15 seconds. If it does, there's something in the networking that needs to be looked into.

curl --connect-timeout 15 https://registry.npmjs.org

My guess from all the comments (I didn't debug it) is that npm binds to any network interface, so IPv6 gets in the way. It would be good if npm provided a way to select an interface, like curl does, similar to this:

curl --interface 12.34.56.78 --connect-timeout 15 https://registry.npmjs.org

Hello. I use Windows. In my case, I installed the most recent version of the OS and ran npm install again. At that moment the firewall appeared, I gave it the permission and got the installation immediately.

Slynchy · 2023-01-02T12:17:28Z

I also recently reinstalled the latest Windows 10 version, and encountered this issue (with firewall entirely disabled). It was indeed related to the system believing IPv6 was enabled/available, when it actually was not. This webpage describes the process for disabling IPv6 on Windows, if anyone else needs to fix the issue in a hurry, but note that this is not a solution; addressing why IPv6 is not working on your machine would be the better option.

oscrx · 2023-01-02T14:19:51Z

Beware that fully disabling ipv6 on Windows might impact the correct functioning of windows itself
https://www.sidn.nl/en/news-and-blogs/dont-disable-ipv6
Microsoft recommends to prefer ipv4 over ipv6 instead.

In this case a fallback should be build in npm to fallback on ipv4.

GoodBoyNinja · 2023-01-26T20:22:56Z

My my M1 MacBook Pro this solved it:

Go to System Settings, search for IPv6, set Configure IPv6 to Link-Local Only
From Finder, choose Go -> Go to Folder and type in .npm, it should be stored in your user folder. Delete it.

Note that I am not certain that setting IPv6 was part of the solution, but now everything works

walrus811 · 2023-02-14T13:45:04Z

I'm using M2 MacBook Air. It seems to be related to the connected network. @GoodBoyNinja's solution doesn't work for me.

However, after I changed my WiFi provider from a cafe's to the hotspot of my iPhone, it works well now.

kurbus · 2023-02-24T15:12:49Z

I prefer to think of this as an "NPM thing." Deus ex machina in reverse.

nathan130200 · 2023-03-14T15:56:13Z

An tip for all, make sure the folder you is in, you have right permissions. I had same issue when i was attempt to install some modules inside Documents folder eg: Documents\test-project i tried both NPM and Yarn and two both stuck in same place (yarn stuck on linking dependencies). Then i moved that folder to desktop and fixed. I'm trying to figure how (in my case windows) is blocking my documents folder.

UPDATE In my case was blocked by Windows Defender Ransomware Protection, in "Controlled Folder Access" section. Block any 3rd party app modify Documents, Pictures, Movies and Downloads folder. There two options to solve this:

Disable ransomware protection (idk if will have a huge impact)
Add some applications (such node, yarn) to "Controlled Access Folder" exclusion list

PhilETaylor · 2023-03-16T21:09:32Z

ok I'll chime in...

Dual stack ip4 and IPv6 on latest MacOS Mac Studio with 128Mb RAM on 1Gbps fibre connection to the desk. both ip4 and ipv6 are valid and work perfectly all the time during the day with anything non-npm like

Dual stack ip4 and IPv6. = npm hangs 100% of the time.

Disable IPv6 and use ip4 only = npm works 100% of the time.

As soon as I disable ipv6 I can 100% of the time get npm upgrade to complete.

As soon as I enable ipv6 (dual stack with ip4 as is the norm) then 100% of the time npm upgrade stalls/hangs...

npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/ --global

I have changed to a starlink at a friends place away from the iinet broadband at home and cant get it to work! Maddening

still doesnt work for me.

it get stuck here, i tried everything that I found online but nothing worked.

gh-andre · 2023-04-15T20:50:14Z

@KruemelopmentDev

Check if you connect to the registry via curl, as described here. If you cannot, then it's a networking issue and npm just isn't doing a good job at detecting or reporting it.

still doesnt work for me. [#########.........] - idealTree: timing idealTree Completed in 2572ms it get stuck here, i tried everything that I found online but nothing worked.

Try disconnecting and reconnecting to the internet. Not sure why but I had this problem a few times only today, and it does help.

AquiGorka · 2023-08-04T16:59:48Z

I can confirm this is not an npm issue but rather a node fetch issue - I confirmed by running a simple node script:

const run=async()=>{
  console.log(await fetch(URL).then(r=>r.json()))
}
run()

any time I noticed the npm i lag and the node fetch consistently timed out.

For me, in macOS the proposed solution to locally link ipv6 worked

oscrx · 2023-08-04T17:38:38Z

There seems to be a happy eyeballs implementation in node

How to solve this error

hungdev · 2024-01-26T09:15:44Z

Works on MacOS if I set IPV6 to Link-local (from Automatically). Thanks for the help.

Hi, I am on Mac M2 Ventura 13.0.1 (22A400), where can I find the above settings? I am not sure whether this is the root cause, as everything worked fine until today.

Node v18.12.1 npm 8.19.2

--- UPDATE:

Alright, I found where it is on M2: Go to System Settings > Network > Wifi (if using) > Click on the connected ones, details > TCP/IC > Configure IPv6 from Automatically to Link-Local Only

After that I tried npm i again and this time it worked!
