Error while deploying my CAP Project to CF Trial account

[Chandan]

Hey all,

I am getting the below errors while deploying my CAP application to Cloud Foundry trial account.

in the service log Error - cds: not found

And in the db deployer:

Error : new major version of npm available

Below is my package.json

I am using VS Code where I have 9.6.7 npm version and 18.17.1 node version installed. Is it something related to my installed node and npm versions?

Hi All,

Deployment success! After many attempts, I was finally able to deploy. 😄

Many thanks to Mauricio Lauffer for his amazing blog which helped me resolve this issue.

Tips for running CAP nodejs in SAP BTP | SAP Blogs

I have updated my start script in package.json to

// package.json
"scripts": {
  "start": "cds-serve"
}

Then updated the command in mta.yaml to start the application.

commands:
        - npm install --production
        - npx -p @sap/cds-dk cds build --production

Done. Then it worked.

You need to increase the version of nodejs in the package.json file to 16.20 or 16.x. I don’t think 16.15 is still supported. You can find up to date info here https://me.sap.com/notes/0003371197

Thanks a lot @Wouter Lemaire for your prompt response.

I changed my package.json as below. But still see the same error.

"engines": {

"npm" : ">=8.0.0 <9.0.0",

"node" : ">=16.0.0 <17.0.0" }

Could anyone suggest why this error?
