I am running on my local ubuntu 14.04 VM. Setting up the environment variable using the following command did NOT work for me. LD_PRELOAD="/app/node_modules/sharp/vendor/lib/libz.so" However, copying the libz.so* to /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ worked for me cp /app/node_modules/sharp/vendor/lib/libz.so* /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
