Angular v11 deploy fails with "Error: Cannot find module 'postcss'"

Site name: adenearnshaw-cv.netlify.app

I have updated my Angular site from v8 to v11. Everything successfully builds locally, but when creating a PR to merge into main, the Netlify Preview Deployment fails to build with what appears to be this error:


Module build failed (from ./node_modules/postcss-loader/dist/cjs.js):

Error: Cannot find module 'postcss'

Steps already taken

  • Locally deleted all items in node_modules then did a clean install and build. Local build succeeds

  • Installed Netlify CLI and ran build locally with this. Local build succeeds

  • Added netlify.toml with build command CI= npm run build:prod. From log this invokes ng build --prod as expected, but remote build fails

  • Double checked PR for changes to file name casing - Non I can see

Hey there, @adenearnshaw :wave:

Thanks so much for writing a detailed post here! It looks like this thread as been a bit quiet since you opened it-- are you still encountering this error? If so, what additional debugging steps have you taken in the past week?

If you’re still having difficulties I will loop in one of our Support Engineers, so let us know :slight_smile:

I retried the build a couple of times, but it still fails on the Netlify server build

Locally I cleared out my NPM cache and re-cloned the repo & was still able to build it.

Any support would be great, thanks

Hi @adenearnshaw , thanks for your patience! It looks like the error in the deploy log is line 96

3:15:07 PM: You tried to parse SCSS with the standard CSS parser; try again with the postcss-scss parser

Can see if the solution provided in this GH issue helps and let us know?

I’ve been able to fix the problem by deleting & re-creating my package-lock.json file.
Once I did this, the build seems to deploy ok
