Getting following error while doing build. platform details:

I am trying to do following activities:

Hi, I had exactly the same issue on my Windows 10 machine this morning. The problem was the result of a corrupt node.exe in my Maven repository. I had to delete the node folder from BOTH my project and my .m2 repo:

delete this folder from your maven repository -> \.m2\repository\com\github\eirslett delete this folder from your application -> <MY_PROJECT>\frontend\src\main\frontend\node then: mvn clean package

I initially tried deleting only the node folder from my application, but maven replaces it with the contents of the corrupt node.exe in the local repo. By deleting both folders, the plugin was forced to go and download a fresh copy of the node.exe to my local repo. Subsequently everything worked fine.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

I had the same problem, this solved the issue:

mvn dependency:purge-local-repository -DmanualInclude=com.github.eirslett:node
mvn clean package

it will delete corrupted node.exe binary and force redownload, which helped.
