Github Actions Build fails for Nextjs giving :Error: error:0308010C:digital envelope routines::unsupported

Question

GitHub Actions Build fails for the Nextjs, I have the following GitHub workflow File :

on:
  push:
    branches: [ main ]
  pull_request:
    branches: [ main ]

# A workflow run is made up of one or more jobs that can run sequentially or in parallel
jobs:
  # This workflow contains a single job called "build"
  build:
    # The type of runner that the job will run on
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    # Steps represent a sequence of tasks that will be executed as part of the job
    steps:
    # Checks-out your repository under $GITHUB_WORKSPACE, so your job can access it
    - uses: actions/checkout@v3
    
    - name: Install NodeJS
      uses: actions/setup-node@v3
      with:
        node-version: '16.16.0'
    
    - uses: actions/checkout@v3
    - uses: borales/actions-yarn@v3.0.0
      with:
        cmd: install # will run `yarn install` command
    - uses: borales/actions-yarn@v3.0.0
      name: lint React App
      with:
        cmd: lint # will run `yarn run lint` command
    - uses: borales/actions-yarn@v3.0.0
      name: Build React App
      with:
        cmd: build # will run `yarn build` command

I have changed the Nodejs version to 16.16.0 but even then it continuously giving

node:internal/crypto/hash:71
  this[kHandle] = new _Hash(algorithm, xofLen);
                  ^

}

Node.js v18.12.0

Any idea?

Answer 1

I am not sure what is the cause of this error, however I managed to get it fixed by dropping borales/actions-yarn and using actions/setup-node instead. It is suggested in the actions-yarn documentation itself, it now only exists to support existing flows. Therefore this might work for you:

on:
  push:
    branches: [ main ]
  pull_request:
    branches: [ main ]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v3
    
    - name: Install NodeJS
      uses: actions/setup-node@v3
      with:
        node-version: '16.16.0'
        cache: 'yarn'
    

    - name: Install dependencies
      run: yarn install

    - name: lint React App
      run: yarn lint

    - name Build React App
      run:yarn build
