Build error with parcel on Netlify

Hey!

I’m working on my new portfolio and when I try to deploy it on Netlify, I got this error:

I tried to add CI= before npm run build but it doesn’t work.

The last error displayed is:
Failed during stage 'building site': Build script returned non-zero exit code: 2

I’m a bit rusty and I can’t find any help on previous similar posts :frowning:

Welcome to the forums @Reikurooo

Strange error.

> parcel build ./src/index.html
[Error: std::bad_alloc]

I cloned your repo and was able to deploy successfully. I made two changes:

  1. Removed "main": "index.js", from package.json as it is incorrect.
  2. Added .parcel-cache to .gitignore so it isn’t pushed to git.

It is possible the .parcel-cache is the root cause, however cannot say for sure. A Support Engineer may have more insight on this.

Damn thank you! It was this folder the issue.

When I used to dev more I never had an issue with this folder, until now ahah.
Have a nice day :slight_smile:

This helped me out, the .parcel-cache in repo was causing me issues.

Hello! Did you just delete `“main”: “index.js” from package.json or did you replace it with index.html?

Should i apply it on index.php?

Hi @richr0ll

I removed it. As per package.json documentation

The main field is a module ID that is the primary entry point to your program. That is, if your package is named foo , and a user installs it, and then does require("foo") , then your main module’s exports object will be returned.

As this is not a program/package/module that is installed, and instead a website, this value isn’t necessarily required.

Although I do note many of the @parcel-bundler examples do set "main": "src/index.html". I can confirm after testing react example, removing main does not affect the build.
