Quick Fix: Before running npm install, try increasing user process count by running ulimit -u 1024.
The Problem:
A Docker build process is failing and exiting with error code 139. The build involves running a command that includes ‘npm install’ and ‘npm run build’ within a Docker container. The error message includes an assertion failure related to ‘std::unique_ptr’ and ‘uv_thread_create’ in the ‘node_platform.cc’ file. The build was previously working successfully, and there is sufficient memory available on the system.
The Solutions:
Solution 1: Increase User Process Count
Before executing the `npm install` command, run the following command to increase the user process count:
“`console
ulimit -u 1024
“`
This step addresses resource (ulimit) constraints that may be causing the build to fail and exit with error code 139.
