Looks like a dependency changed. I took a quick look at the releases on hawk and boom and didn't see anything recent. This stopped building with this error in the last hour or so.

We just hit this too. It looks like it was caused by this update to request:

request/request@479143d

[Bugget]

Indeed that was it. In our package.json file we just added a hard set of request to version 2.81.0 which is before they set hawk to 6.x and that fixed the build. So long as all your tests pass that is a work around.

This error message started to appear recently. Is there anything you guys suggest may be ?

got bitten by this too. had to lock request to 2.81.0

[mirzazeyrek]

Looks like preventing this is possible.

If you have a working version prior to update go to that installation and use:

npm shrinkwrap 
or
npm shrinkwrap --dev

then a new file will be created

npm-shrinkwrap.json

Check that file and make sure dependencies are created. Normally this file has all the existing dependencies. Put that file in the folder which you run npm install inside. NPM will use the old versions and should work.

As an alternative you can remove all unrelated dependencies and keep only node-sass with request dependency.

          "node-sass": {
            "version": "2.1.1",
            "from": "node-sass@>=2.0.1 <3.0.0",
            "resolved": "https://registry.npmjs.org/node-sass/-/node-sass-2.1.1.tgz",
            "dependencies": {
              "request": {
                "version": "2.79.0",
                "from": "request@>=2.53.0 <3.0.0",
                "resolved": "https://registry.npmjs.org/request/-/request-2.79.0.tgz",
              },
            }
          },

Hi @Bugget - We are facing same issues and we are using node:0.12.7 version of image. Please can you help what changes are required to resolve this issue.

quick fix: npm install node-sass request@2.81.0

[majidpal]

Thanks for update. I am already having "npm install" used. Should I remove this line and use one suggested by you. I tried using npm install npm install node-sass request@2.81.0 but still giving error.

I'm going to leave this unlocked, and not speaking for any of the other maintainers, but 0.12 has been EOL since January 1st. I don't know how much effort will be put into fixing this, but I do appreciate the folks suggesting the workaround by pinning the request dependency.

[kmcminn]

@majidpal to fix versions you'll need prune, shrinkwrap and a correct package.json. In a fresh repo that would look like:

npm install node-sass request@2.81.0 shrinkwrap
npm init # make sure <=2.81.0
npm prune
npm shrinkwrap

[majidpal]

Thanks you for response. We are planning to move away with this version but the for temprary need to fix so that work can continue. I am using below in my jobs - ./docker run --rm -t \ -v "/data/jenkins/home/jobs/test/workspace/:/src/" \ node:0.12.7 bash -c "git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://; \ cd /src; \ npm install; \ npm install -g bower; \ bower install --allow-root --config.interactive=false ;\ npm run build npm run cache-buster npm run www-build-index" in my package.json we have gulp-sass": "^2.1.1" Please let me know what to change. Appreciate help.
