[arm64] Can't download the requested binary: Can't extract the file: failed to unpack

[shirish87]

Unable to install most versions of node on an arm64 device.

OS: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS aarch64
Filesystem: ext4

Package xz-utils is installed. tar and xz are available.

Interestingly, v11.15.0 works fine.

v10 and v12 are failing on extracting an HTML doc file. Makes me wonder the source files were created with permissions preserved.

error: Can't download the requested binary: Can't extract the file: failed to unpack `/home/marvin/.fnm/node-versions/.downloads/.tmpY6gY1Q/node-v12.22.1-linux-arm64/lib/node_modules/npm/docs/public/cli-commands/npm-org/index.html`

Woops. nevermind, device was out of disk space 😞

Thanks for fixing that yourself 😜

I've just hit this on CircleCI, mostly because their XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is set to a 1.6GB tmpfs which apparently isn't enough. Is there any way to get better logging of this one? I'm not expecting the tool to be able to fix the problem, but just being able to say "hey, we ran out of disk here" would be really useful!

Having said this, I've spent an hour or so digging through this and trying to improve things and it's really hard right now. I suspect this will get better if rust-lang/rust#86442 eventually ever gets stabilised so then https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/io/enum.ErrorKind.html#variant.StorageFull appears.

Not sure if I should open a new issue or add to this one since it was never actually resolved.

Just ran into this on WSL and it doesn't seem to be as straightforward as just diskspace.

My XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is set to /run/user/1000 and this is what the tmpfs mount points look like:

none on /run/user type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,mode=755)
none on /run/user type tmpfs (rw,relatime)

This is what df reports for free disk:

❯ df -h /run/user
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
none             16G   84K   16G   1% /run/user

It still fails with the above error when I try to install Node 18.

However, pointing the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR env to a different folder (/tmp/foobar in my case) resolved it.

I'm on Windows 10 (64 bit) running Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS in WSL.
