Hi,

I am trying out this new feature, however, I get this error from the picture attached:

Plugin “netlify-plugin-gatsby-cache” internal error
Error: Cannot cache /opt/build/repo because it is the current directory (/opt/build/repo) or a parent directory

I followed the instructions here Enable Gatsby Incremental Builds on Netlify, except my gatsby already upgraded to 2.21.24.

Any ideas why is this happening and how to solve this? Thanks!

Actually I finally got it working by adding these to netlify.toml
[build.environment]
YARN_VERSION = “1.22.4”
NODE_VERSION = “12.16.3”

Perfect; thanks for feeding back!

Hi,
I was not getting this error in previous builds, but now I don’t know why this error is showing up, I also tried the below modification to netlify.toml

my current netlify.toml file configurations are:


[build.environment]
  YARN_VERSION = "1.22.4"
  NODE_VERSION = "12.16.3"

  
[[plugins]]
  package = "netlify-plugin-gatsby-cache"

And the error shows up as

Plugin “netlify-plugin-gatsby-cache” internal error

hi there, sorry to be slow to get back to you! any changes to this - were you able to figure it out? if not, i will go ask and see if we can get you some more help.

Hey, Sorry to get back so late, I tried 10’s of builds reinstalling plugin, deleted the site and redeployed many times…But it doesn’t seem to work so I rather removed the incremental build feature than wasting my builds. Since I have not yet made my site public it didn’t cause much of a harm.

So, it would be really great if you’ll could help me with that.

Hi @jaymgurav,

This error should indicate that the publish directory is misconfigured for a Gatsby setup.
Could you please print the full build logs showing the error? Thanks!
Note: the Gatsby cache plugin version should be the latest, i.e. 0.3.2.
