An error occurred while uploading (7.19.0)

[shirotech]

pnpm version:

7.19.0

Code to reproduce the issue:

pnpm install

Expected behavior:

install without issues

Actual behavior:

pnpm complains about certain random packages e.g. core-js "An error occurred while uploading" then hangs

After reverting back to and older version, install works fine.

Could you share repo that reproduces the issue? Do you use node-linker=hoisted?

Hi, yes I am using that option, here is complete list:

git-checks=false
node-linker=hoisted
include-workspace-root=true
link-workspace-packages=deep
install-links=true
ignore-workspace-root-check=true
package-import-method=hardlink
strict-peer-dependencies=false

It seems like you know what the cause is, otherwise I'll need some time to pinpoint what is causing the issue for the repro. Thank you.

I assume that this was caused by this change: #5814

But I don't know how to reproduce the issue.

I'm getting the same error with the recent update. I'm suspecting that it might be caused by running pnpm i on an external drive. Will double-check that to see if it's true.

Apparently, it was not the case, however, the problem start to happen if one/more of the packages are having postinstall script.

Just realized it happens on Vercel deployment as well😕

@zkochan I saw the fix, and it seems to have removed the error/warning, but symptoms remains, now the postinstall still hangs as before:

node_modules/core-js: Running postinstall script, done in 88ms
node_modules/pngquant-bin: Running postinstall script, done in 525ms
Progress: resolved 994, reused 973, downloaded 0, added 3, done


^C

had to ctrl+c, CPU was full throttled and laptop was overheating, I assume there is infinite loop somewhere.

Try to add core-js to neverBuiltDependencies.

Also, it would help if you could provide a repo the reproduces the issue.
