Jenkins - env: ‘node’: No such file or directory

I have a jenkins server that is configured using https://github.com/shierro/jenkins-docker-examples/tree/master/05-aws-ecs

I am running a blue ocean pipeline using a simple Jenkinsfile and the jenkins NodeJS plugin 

pipeline { 
  agent any 

  tools {
    nodejs 'node10'
  }

  stages {
    stage ('Checkout Code') {
      steps {
        checkout scm
      }
    }
    stage ('Install dependencies') {
      steps {
        sh "echo $PATH"
        sh "npm install"
      }
    }
  }
}

I made sure to add the node10 global tool as well w/c is used above enter image description here

When the pipeline gets to the script sh "npm install" i am running through this error enter image description here

this is the output of the command echo $PATH enter image description here

so i think it's not a path issue

Also, it also wasn't able to add the global package enter image description here

More info that might help:

  • Docker Jenkins server: FROM jenkins/jenkins:2.131-alpine
  • Blue ocean version: 1.7.0
  • NodeJS Plugin: 1.2.6
  • Multiple server restarts already

Any ideas why the jenkins server does not know where node is?

Big thanks in advance!

Solution

  • Thanks to @JoergS for some insight! The culprit in this case is: using alpine image as the docker base. So switching from jenkins/jenkins:2.131-alpine to jenkins/jenkins:2.131 solved the NodeJS plugin issue.
