Hi,

On a freshly installed Debian 10.9 amd64 system, strictly following the build-from-sources procedure - just for reference:

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | bash -
apt-get install gcc g++ make
apt-get install -y nodejs
curl -sL https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | gpg --dearmor | tee /usr/share/keyrings/yarnkey.gpg >/dev/null
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/yarnkey.gpg] https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian stable main" | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list
apt-get update && sudo apt-get install yarn
apt-get install build-essential redis-server libpng-dev git python-minimal libvhdi-utils lvm2 cifs-utils

yarn build

fails with

(I had a fully working Debian Stretch VM with xen-orchestra, but on the last 'git pull --ff-only' I was forced to upgrade nodejs from 14.6 to 14.7, which failed, so I decided to start from scratch).

Any ideas?

@ci4ic4 Replying to myself - disregard this. I found out why. I used to run Xen-Orchestra as root on my previous Debian 9 instance; I had to switch to Debian 10 (nodejs incompatibility at the time, I don't know if it has been resolved) and I didn't bother setting it up to run as root, left it to start as my normal user.

I had to add my normal user account to the 'root' group and 'chmod 775 /run' directory - after that the NFS 'remote' mounts OK and the backup succeeds.

Hi,

Just another 'me too' - my backups are failing with the same message as well.

I just rebuilt xen-orchestra, running on a Debian 10 VM.

Builds now, thanks for the quick response.

@meth0d See the reference sequence provided in the original post. As I said, my reason to go to Buster was my inability to upgrade to nodejs 14.17.
