Incompatible Node version

If your Frappe Cloud build is failing with an `engine "node" is incompatible` message such as this:

$ yarn install
yarn install v1.22.22
[1/5] Validating package.json...
error customization_forms@1.0.0: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=18.0.0". Got "16.16.0"
error Found incompatible module.

It means that Node version on your bench is different from what is required by the app.

To fix this issue:

  • Navigate to the Dependencies tab on your Bench

  • Locate the Node Version entry

  • Click on Edit under the ··· menu button:


You should see an Edit Dependency dialog pop up:


Select the correct Node Version, click on Edit to save the setting. Then try updating your Bench.

If your build still does not succeed, raise a support ticket and we'll help you out.
