Start to happen here too after updating the libs (Vite 5.3.5 to 5.4.8). I didn't indentify yet, then follow the stack trace that should help others.

@AbderrahmenISSA I had the same problem. I added .dockerignore file including node_modules entiry. And that fixed the issue.

[AbderrahmenISSA]

Hello, The solution I finally found after many tries :

• Use node:18 instead of latest or alpine version
• Use npm ci instead of npm install
• Add CMD npm run $NODE_ENV -- --host 0.0.0.0 --port 3000

So my final dockerfile is :

FROM node:18

WORKDIR /usr/src/app

# Set PATH to include local node_modules
ENV PATH /usr/src/node_modules/.bin:$PATH

# Set environment variable (local, dev, prd)
ARG environment
ENV NODE_ENV=$environment
RUN echo $NODE_ENV

# Copy package.json and package-lock.json
COPY package.json package-lock.json ./

# Install dependencies
RUN npm ci

# Copy the rest of the application code
COPY . ./

# Expose the port that the app runs on
EXPOSE 3000

# Start the Vite app
CMD npm run $NODE_ENV -- --host 0.0.0.0 --port 3000

Not working any solution in my case

Dockerfile:

FROM node:18-alpine3.18

WORKDIR /home/app

COPY ./package*.json .

RUN yarn install

COPY . .

EXPOSE 5173

CMD ["yarn", "run", "dev", "--host"]

Compose:

  client:
    build:
      context: ./json-client
      dockerfile: Dockerfile.development
    restart: always
    ports:
      - "5173:5173"
    env_file:
      - ./json-config/client.env
    volumes:
      - ./json-client/src:/home/app/src
      - /home/app/node_modules
    networks:
      - net-json-transformer

Okay, I solved it. I made 3 changes:

• FROM node:18-alpine3.18 to FROM node:21.1.0-alpine3.18
• I added a .dockerignore in my react project folder. At the same level as the package.json. With the following line: node_modules
• I removed the line of the docker-compose that belonged to a volume: /home/app/node_modules

This is definitely some new issue, using Vite 5.3.5 works totally fine but using latest version "vite": "^5.4.8" will always give this error.

[L1ghtError]

Try to update vitejs/plugin-react-swc to at least 3.7.1

[Fahad-ishfaq]

I had same issue,
Dockerfile

FROM node:18-alpine3.19 AS build
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json .
RUN npm i
COPY . .
RUN npm run build

Vite version 5.3.1

Fix
removing node_modules directory fixed this issue

[brendan-morin]

I'm not sure why adding node_modules to .dockerignore didn't work for me (even after removing a reference to it as a volume), but deleting my local node_modules dir resolved it.

[femke77]

having the same error but not with Docker. Just trying to deploy to Render.com. Fails with this same error.

try with: Vite 5.3.5

[brendan-morin]

I kept running into this in various ways (continually deleting my node_modules folder, giving up docker mounts, and downgrading all aren't great options), but upgrading to 5.4.10 seemed to resolve it for me.
