Netlify Deploy Command failed with exit code 254: npm run build-studio && cp studio/netlify.toml studio/dist

Please help! I’m a newb! Trying to launch my first site using Sanity’s Gatsby portfolio template. It deployed just fine the first time, then I did some edits and now it fails with “Command failed with exit code 254: npm run build-studio && cp studio/netlify.toml studio/dist”. The site has always built and run locally with no issues.

I’ve tried many things, like deleting package-lock.json &/or node_modules folder in the root as well as in the studio and web folders and running “npm install” again. Tried “npm update” in root and studio and web folders. Tried tinkering with the postinstall script in the root folder’s package.json file. Tried running “npm install --force --legacy-peer-deps”. Tried cleaning my cache in root, studio and web folders. Basically tried everything I saw in the Netlify forums and elsewhere when googling my issue…

Here is the github repo: https://github.com/ericerodgers/portfolio.

Here is where the deploy seems to break:

Hi @ericerodgers

a) Not sure why you are copying the netlify.toml into dist.
b) The netlify.toml in studio is incorrectly formatted.
It reads

CI= npm run build

when it should read

[build]
  command = "CI= npm run build"

I still see it in the project root as well as in studio which also contains a yarn.lock.

I was able to build your code locally without error.

I have forked your repository, removed package-lock.json, yarn.lock, netlify.toml files and as with you, tried various values to get it to build.

In the end, I managed to get it to build.

These are the build settings I used:

Screenshot 2021-09-12 18.45.26
Screenshot 2021-09-12 18.45.26883×453 21.8 KB

Notice I set the Base directory to studio. npm run build then runs the build command in the package.json in that directory. Speaking of which, I modified that, removing the lerna bootstrap. Lastly I added the environment variable NPM_FLAGS with the value --force as there is a dependency issue with the sanity version as you can see in build log agitated-kowalevski-2cc360/deploys/613dbba3ed232afb2b2fb3e7.

The successful build log: agitated-kowalevski-2cc360/deploys/613dbc529b3eb4f59b2d73bf
The build is available at 613dbc529b3eb4f59b2d73bf–agitated-kowalevski-2cc360.netlify.app however doesn’t work as that domain is not on the allowed list.

Ideally you would try to avoid issue with dependency versions, matching them up.

Hope this gives you something to work with.

My fork coelmay/portfolio if you wish to look.

WOW thanks so much @coelmay!

As a beginner, I really appreciate your clear, straightforward response. I implemented your changes exactly as you specified to my files and to the Netlify UI, I think(?), and they didn’t work for me… so maybe I didn’t get it quite right? When I pushed my root portfolio folder to github to trigger the studio and web builds, it only the deployed the web build, but that failed, and it looked like it was attempting to build itself as a sanity studio instead of as the gatsby site or something… Anyway, your advice and suggestions definitely put me on the right path and I played around with things for a while and was able to get both the website and the sanity studio to deploy successfully. So, thank you!

In the end, here’s what worked for me: I made your suggested edit to the netlify.toml file, I removed “&& lerna bootstrap” from the studio build script, and I deleted the yarn.lock file. I left all the package-lock.json files in place, as well as the updated netlify.toml file. I returned the Netlify UI settings to the way I had them before. I deployed from the root portfolio folder with these changes and the sanity studio build completed, but the gatsby website failed with some error codes indicating problems with the sanity schema… In the Sanity.io UI I saw an error message asking if I wanted to delete a schema I thought I’d already successfully deleted, and I confirmed the delete. I redeployed graphql locally and redeployed the site one last time and now everything works!

I hope my explanations here have been clear enough for anyone else who might encounter this problem… I don’t really know how or why I had a yarn.lock file or why the studio build script include “lerna bootstrap”, I didn’t really do very major alterations to the sanity/gatsby portfolio template I found on sanity.io… I mainly just added new content.

Thanks again @coelmay, my first ever website is now successfully up and running with a functional sanity CMS. I still plan to make some changes but I’m pretty happy with it for now! Check it out: https://ericrodgers.io

Hey there, @ericerodgers :wave:

Welcome to the Netlify Forums! Thanks so much for sharing such a clear and detailed summary of the steps you took to get your first site deployed! What an exciting milestone! We can’t wait to see what you continue to build :netliconfetti:
