Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance ? : no
If your request is related to an app, specify its name and version: joplin 3.0.6~ynh1

Description of my issue

Installation fails after approx 10mn of build time with the following error message appearing in the logs:

Usage Error: Couldn't find the node_modules state file - running an install might help (findPackageLocation)

Full install log: hastebin

It is worth noting that the VPS I have been trying to install joplin on is not very beefy, in case that would be an issue (I am wondering whether the 50M disk space & 50M RAM announced in the app’s YNH documentation are actually enough).

I remember trying to install it and I checked while the installation is running. It requires more than 5G (and may be more than 7) for install

I updated the requirements for Joplin. We need 5G of RAM to build the app … that is insane :face_with_spiral_eyes:

It’s 5G of disk space

For the CI dev I see
Peak RAM usage during this test: 3739MB
and the CI, it was 4500ishMB

My vps has 2G ram and 2G swap. I remember that the installation failed because out of storage space, I had about 6G free.

As for me above error comes with 9.5GB of available disk space but only about 800MB of available RAM
